Heafing

Heafing is a sophisticated form of digital media bullshitting for the 21st century.

It is typified by the liberal smattering of phrases into sentences such as 'media ecology', 'suite of tools', 'curated content', 'bespoke network' and 'intersection of technology' in order to create the facade of all-knowingness.

Heafers have an over-inflated opinion of their own importance and tend to dress like teenagers well into their 30s.

Do we have to sit here and listen to this dude heafing any longer, noone gives a shit. Let's go outside and get a life.

herding cats 

The phrase herding cats comes from the common saying that something involving coordination of many different groups or people is as difficult as herding cats. One of the commonly encountered uses of the term in technical fields is the phrase "Managing programmers is like herding cats" or "Managing engineers is like herding cats". In education it would be "Managing students is like herding cats". In reality, it would be "Managing cats is like herding cats." It refers to the individualism common in the stereotypical examples of programmers and domesticated cats. A similar phrase, allegedly of Irish origins, is "Minding mice at a crossroads".

Me: Yo. I was having trouble.
You: So, managing cats was like herding cats?
Cats: Ya!

Heroinsmith 

The very first video game which teaches you how to shoot up with real needles. Heroinsmith is a lot like it's predecessor, Heroin Hero, but it uses real needles and real heroin instead of simulated heroin. Heroinsmith is usually played before playing Rocksmith to help you relax before playing.

I fucked up my Rocksmith career by playing too much Heroinsmith.

heroin chic 

the look that was popular in the 90s and is coming back now. being waif skinny, pale, tired and sickly looking, using cigarette smoke as perfume, lanky, and wearing clothes that hang off your emaciated body will give you the 'heroin chic' look. you are supposed to look like you have been up for the past week partying and you are worn out (but in a cool way). there was a lot of public outcry about this look saying it encouraged children to try drugs and saying drugs were cool.

when i stay up all night and come to school in the morning i look heroin chic.
