Spontaneous Guitar Combustion (SGC)

A rapidly growing phenomena where a guitar in a public place inexplicably ignites, destroying the instrument and often severely injuring the person holding it.

Most theorists agree that it is a karmic occurrence, brought about by the disruption of peace in the universe, by a growth in the crust punk trend, specifically in the American Midwest.

Guitars tend to explode at a high enough temperature to ignite dirty clothing and greasy hair, so it is typical for the person holding to guitar to catch fire as well. Not surprisingly, there has never been an incident recorded where someone has tried to extinguish a victim of SGC, though many have admitted to thanking God after witnessing the miracle.

Researchers have been trying to establish a cause-and-effect relationship between SGC and the Mayan prediction of the 2012 apocalypse. Nostradamus' prediction has already been connected when astronomers discovered a constellation depicting SCG, perfectly situated with the predicted alignment of the planets on the day of the Rapture.

The majority of recorded cases have occurred in coffee shops, to victims who have been described as crust punk, gutter punk, and hippy.
When the crust punk's strumming was brought to an overdue end by Spontaneous Guitar Combustion (SGC), the entire coffee shop applauded.

SGC

Staley got cut.

The acronym has evolved to mean OLD NEWS.

Its definition is in reference to BYU running back Luke Staley who got cut from the Detroit Lions in 2003. Because he won the Doak Walker award in 2001 for college's best running back it was presumed he would have some sort of pro career but due to injury he got cut and quietly left the pro ranks. People unaware continually come to the board asking what happened to Luke? Who is he playing for?
When on a chat board and someone late to the party introduces old news:

The NFL Lockout is over!
SGC, see the thread 3 below.

When on a chat board introducing news and aren't sure if it has already been discussed:

Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club

Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club is a euphenism that refers to the club that is referred to by the Beatles album Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band. It's all the lonely people the band referred to in an earlier song, it's the alienated people. The Beatles are portraying to be the "spokesperson" band for that club. The album is a concept album that deals with the subject of alienation. That would be explored in more extensive detail in the double album The Wall by the band Pink Floyd.
After Steve, Ben and Greg swindled me out of $60 (I thought they were my friends) and Sara Ann left me for Joe I have become a member of the Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club. There's no one in this building I can hang around with this weekend.
