tech loop

While internet surfing, one webpage leads to another webpage, leads to another webpage, and before you know it, it is 5 hours later.

Sorry I'm late to happy hour, I got caught in a tech loop.

Tech-tarded

Not having the capacity to operate the simplest of electronics. This primitive species cannot understand the concept of "user-friendly" and often appears to be baffled by everyday occurrences.

No, it's not the batteries in the remote... it's you... Perhaps you should try not to be so tech-tarded.

Tech Slapped

To be put in one's place whilst discussing technology, by another person who's tech knowledge far surpasses your own, likely after wrongly trying to impress others with your own mediocre tech knowledge.
This can be thought of as the non-physical, tech analogy to being "bitch slapped". Though not necessary, greater effect can be realized, by starting the Tech Slap with the word, "Actually". The more in-depth, technical knowledge given, the harder the Slap.

Slappee: "Did you know that the latest satellites can read a license plate on a moving car?"
Slapper: "Actually, government satellites have been able to do that since 1984 with the NSA's May launch of Uberview. Today's satellites, with their multi-iris, 45 Megapixel, full spectrum CCD sensors could now be used to determine the sex and eye color of a second trimester fetus."
Observer to Slappee: "Dude, you just got Tech Slapped."

tech bags

Pejorative term for tech workers, a derivative of 'douche bag'. These people will push up the cost of living so high, cool people will no longer be able to afford to live in the city. They will infiltrate your neighborhood, destroy everything you hold sacred, and fill the neighborhood bars with cocky, over-paid pricks asking questions like "what's with all the fags around here?" Before you know it, everything will become trendy, overpriced, fake and there won't be anywhere to park. Seattle and San Francisco are two of the recent 'casualty cities' that have been overrun.

"Yeah everything went to shit when all the tech bags started moving here..."
