Yardley

A very idealic town outside of Philadelphia. It has a very historic and picturesque downtown area. Alot of people who work in the New York/New Jersey area choose to live here for the mayberryesque environment. It is 90% white and for some reason alot of the people who grew up there don't come back.
Kid 1: I'm bored, let's do something.

Kid 2: Do what?

Kid 3: Hmmm... as usual, all there is to do in Yardley is drugs or go into town and sit there.

Three yard elf

"Keep in mind, however, that the Xbox and the Gamecube, both of which technically only have the graphical capabilities of a 3 yard elf PC, are still getting extremely good looking games, and even decent ports of newish PC games."

This comment was added to a thread created by "impseth" entitled "Console design moving away from PC" on the Penny Arcade "Games and Technology" forum.

When author "aeolist" originally coined the phrase, he typed it as "3 yard elf" which caused much confusion to those following the thread. Aeolist later identified it as a typographical error: "It's the most bizarre typo for "year old" possible."

The term, used in the erroneous, is now used to imply a note of disdain in a given subject matter, topic, or thing. It may even be used to implicate the afore mentioned in a direct insult as well.

Both "3 yard elf" and "three yard elf" are grammatically correct usages of this slang.
1)
"Who spilled my beer?"
"The three yard elf over there."

2)
"This game is such a 3 yard elf, I feel dirty even playing it."

3)
"Only a three yard elf would use Windows millennium."

yardtard

A lowbrow practitioner of backyard wrestling who will often perform high risk maneuvers and use crude weaponry. 1998-2001 was considered the heyday of yardtards. Subsequently, there has been a growing movement of mixed martial artists style yardtards who often emulate matches from The Ultimate Fighting Championship as the show started to become broadcasted on cable tv following the reality show The Ultimate Fighter. Many backyarders who follow this trend like to brawl in their backyards or garages after buying heavy bag gloves from sporting goods stores. These backyarders are frequently called "TUF noobs" for they do not formally train martial arts at academies and have only become followers of mixed martial arts following the reality tv show. The highest extent of an mma yardtard's training usually is high school wrestling and practicing techniques sought online.
"I saw a Tapout and Bad Boy sticker on Trey's lifted Ford f-150. Does he train jiu-jitsu or mma?"

"Naw, he's just one of those newbreed yardtards who wrestled in high school and does 'garage-jitsu'."
