hehe into the wind

Do something bad to someone without them knowing and laugh behind their back. Twitter complaining about him now.

The Angry (@NY_Wiseass): Michael Jackson was an asshole in “Remember the Time”
Kar L. Stine (@karyewest): Michael Jackson was an asshole in a lot of his videos. He’d step into the scene, flirt with a mans girl, cause chaos then hehe into the wind.

wind down

To relax after any strenuous physical or mental activity.

I go to class all day from 9 - 4 and then work for most of the night. Whenever I get home, I want nothing more than to just smoke a cigarette and watch a movie to wind down.

Windows F'ed in the A

On newer computers with Windows 2000 and XP, there is a keyboard shortcut "Windows + F". This shortcut will bring up a search window when pressed once. When held, however, multiple (into the hundreds and even thousands) of search windows will appear. The time held directly correlates with the number of search windows to appear. When held long enough, the computer may crash and may even need a restart. This is something done in many schools to screw around and pull a prank on a fellow, and later on, pissed off, classmate. It also adds an extra shock when one turns off the monitor making an unsuspecting victim.

Teachers are always stumped when they see this dilemma, and usually suggest restarting, thinking the computer just freaking out.

Uneducated users also don't know "Ctrl + W" and "Alt + F4" can be held to very quickly get rid of this problem. However, these shortcuts will not solve the problem if it is held long enough to crash.

Teacher: Why don't you come up to the board and show us this model.
Student 1: *Walks up to board*
Student 2: (Whilst student 1 is at board) *Presses and holds "Windows + F" for an extended period of time, then turns off monitor*
Student 1: *Walks back and turns on monitor, seeing the hundreds of search windows* "Son of a biiiitch, I got Windows F'ed in the A"

Windows Moment

A 10-15 second period of total unresponsiveness encountered when using a PC running any version of Microsoft Windows. Traditionally occurs several times an hour. Just long enough to become disturbing and annoying, not long enough to inspire a reboot. Generally the mouse continues to move. When the moment ends, the user is usually left to deal with the consequences of the keys they struck in frustration while it was ongoing.

Sure, I'll pull that up right now. Ummm... Dammit, my computer's having a Windows Moment. Hang on.

window shopping

When one visits a store or mall to admire goods rather than to purchase them. The 'shopper' seems to be looking so intently at the glass in storefront windows that he appears to want to buy the window itself, hence 'window shopping'.

"You seem to be really interested in that sweater. Do you plan on getting it?"

"No, I'm just window shopping."
