Zombie Request

A work request sent to help desks or administrative assistants that should be very quick and simple to complete, but comes back over and over again due to the requestor's poor attention to detail or indecisive work groups or committees unable to agree on a final version of the request.

A zombie request can also relate to non-business requests, such as requests from a honey-do list or a family member.
I thought this spreadsheet was finally complete after the 12th time it came back for revisions, but the Tasks committee now can't decide what order to put the columns in! This zombie request just won't die!

Facebook Friend Request Purgatory

the act of neither confirming nor ignoring friend requests of those that I full well know and remember, but who have thrown me even the SLIGHTEST bit of shade in the past. I instead leave them to linger for days, weeks and sometimes a full month in 'friend request purgatory'--for punishment... and purification--before finally accepting their requests and welcoming them into "heaven" (i.e. my friend list)
Did your ex boyfriend friend request you? He's on Facebook now.

Yes girl, I have him locked away in Facebook friend request purgatory, to give him time to think about his choices and hopefully make better ones in the future.

Total Request Live

prime example of today's youths' musical taste, or lack thereof. Just exactly what's wrong with society and why all the other countries hate us (ok, maybe not that)
Dude, Carson Daly is a total kiss-ass. I wish I could land a gig just by calling Kelly Osbourne the best singer ever.

wrong request

When you send a friend request to the wrong person on Facebook because they have the same name as the person you wanted to friend. Can end awkwardly or you can cancel it before they find out.
(in a Facebook message)

John: Hey, why did you friend me? Do I know you?

Marie: Oh sorry, wrong request. I wanted to friend John Parker. I guess you are not the one I know. Haha lol hv a good day.
