Get the LOTIS mug.The act of writing a long and interesting story with many mysteries, which, due to the story's complexity, attracts many fans, but then continues to stall, prolong, postpone, or flat-out ignores the answers to the story's questions, thus essentially jerking around the loyal fans.
This word comes from the TV show "Lost" on ABC, but can describe any story which follows the definition, such as the the videogame "Half-Life 2", or the manga, "Bleach".
There are two main reasons why a story is "losting". The first is that the writers are not creative enough to come up with an answer to the questions posed that can meet the fans expectations, and thus try to pretend that the questions never existed. The second is that, due to marketing pressures, the writers are forced to continue a story longer than they have ever anticipated, and thus are forbidden from giving away any answers indefinitely. The second method may be referred to as "Milking the Cash-Cow".

The second is that, due to marketing pressures, the writers are forced to continue a story longer than they have ever anticipated, and thus are forbidden from giving away any answers indefinitely. The second method may be referred to as "Milking the Cash-Cow".
A quick way to spot if a story is losting is to look for a situation in which an answer to a story's various questions can simply and easily be answered, only for the story to not do so. Here are a few examples:
1) Lost:
After spending an entire season building up the suspense and mystery of the Island's native inhabitants, known as the "Others", one of the survivors of the plane-crash comes face-to-face with an "Other". The survivor asks "Who are you people?", to which the "Other" replies, "It doesn't matter who we are", thus effectively telling all the loyal fans who cared about this storyline to go screw themselves.
2)Half-Life 2:
In the first Half-Life, you play through the eyes of Gordon Freeman, and thus are purposely not told the answers to many mysteries in order to obtain the illusion that the player is just as confused as anyone else is in the story after an alien-invasion takes place.
However, ten years later, during Half-Life 2, you are surrounded by dozens of friendly characters who all know exactly what happened during the events of the first Half-Life. Despite this, no answers are given, leaving fans to read separate books and searching for hidden audio files within the games to fill in the blanks to the story.

Get the lotita mug.FUPA looting is the practice of exploring your local grave yard in hopes to find a fresh woman’s grave. Once found, the corpse is then dug up and jumped on multiple times. Any substance, solid or liquid is then ingested by the person that was jumping. The utensil of choice is usually a cooking spoon but any eating utensil may be used. After the feasting is done, the body is then placed back in the grave and marked by sticking the spoon vertically in the ground next to the grave to communicate to other FUPA looters that the spot has already been used.
Hey Ethan, I just got off of a long day at work and I'm hungry. Would you like to go FUPA looting with me, I've had a craving ever since I went to my Grandma's Funeral.

Get the FUPA Looting mug.The use of humor, irony, exaggeration, or ridicule to expose or criticize people's stupidity or vices, particularly in the context of logically flawed statements, made hyper-apparent by one's studying for the LSAT.
Chad: "I don't think I've ever successfully used an entire bottle of mustard. It generally sits in the fridge for several years until Laura goes, 'gross, this expired over a year ago...'
Tom: "Chad, please excuse the LSATire, but I question the logical validity of your saying you've never 'successfully used an entire bottle of mustard,' unless you've occasionally heard Laura say: 'no dear, you use the knife to spread the mustard, not the mustard to spread the knife'... Dummy."
