WYSILOB

Pronounces "Wizzy-lob" and meaning "What You See Is a Load of Bollocks". Based on the computing acronym WYSIWIG (What You See is What You Get). Refers to the anything that is less than what it portrayed or advertised itself to be.

The new software program is wysilob - it's full of bugs.
Her smiles and eyes are wysilob. She's very cold if she doesn't take a liking to you.

wysiwyg

A promise of Microsoft and it never come true.

Most programs are not truly WYSIWYG since printing and page formatting are still hidden from view.

WYSIWYE

Much like the term WYSIWYG, WYSIWYE describes a type of integrated editing GUI. The term stands for "What You See is Where You Edit," in reference to an integrated editing interface. Such as an admin panel in a website fully integrated into the homepage.

Jim: "Man, this CMS is lame, I have to click the admin panel, then login, then have no clue what I'm editing because I can't see it update due to the fact I'm in another page."
Tom: "You need to code a WYSIWYE interface"

What You See Is All You Get

Derived from 'wysiwyg' - 'What You See Is What You Get'.

Used for internet sales, it states only what you see is what will be delivered, thereby killing assumptions on cases for CD's, batteries for toys, or all 32 chessmen if only the white pieces are displayed.

Alternatively, it is often used in bars or on a street corner when considering the potential worth of a person, (material or spiritual).

'Hey, check the bling on that dawg. They must have it made!'
'Nah - wysiayg' <Nope, all their worth, material and spiritual, is present in their visage.>
