Multi-flasking 

A phenomena in which everyone on the ski lift has a flask of booze and shares it with the rest of the chair.

Black-flakking 

Black-flakking is the the act of tricking others into opening a link to the much talked about music video "Friday" by Rebecca Black. This trick is very similar to rickrolling. To be Black-flakked is to be the victim and the act of Black-flakking is done by the predator/troll. The prank is considered to be funny because the song is horrible in many, many ways.
Troll: Hey, dude, you should really check out this video! It's super hilarious and has monkeys!
(secretly sends link to "Friday" because they are
Black-flakking)
Victim: Okay!
(opens link)
Victim: WTF?! That was the worst music I've ever heard!
Troll: You just got black-flakked! U mad, bro?

Franking out 

To freak out at an extreme level with either uncontrollable convolutions or hand gestures. To Frank out you must go beyond the level of freak out and use random words and noises that do not make any sense and also move hands and body in an uncontrollable manner, much like an individual with Touretts syndrome having a tick.
When Jen found out the love of her life was coming to the party she started franking out.

Flanging 

Pronounced 'flan-jing', the act of mixing two audio signals together, with one being delayed by a small and slowly changing period producing an output signal with peaks and troughs in a harmonic series. Flangers are similar to phasers (phase-shifting, beyond the scope of this definition) however, if you listen intently enough, you can hear the difference.

The flange effect can best be described (to those who never studied wave mechanics) as a jet sound; sounds like a jet aircraft passing by the listener. Phasing on the other hand sounds much more alien and "other-worldly".

While used in all sorts of different music, flangers are most heavily used in psychedelic and dreamy music where strong harmonics and a "wall-of-sound" depth are often sought - used with good reason too, flanging sounds insanely beautiful when you're as high as a kite. ;)
I was listening to Slowdive's Machine Gun shortly after returning from another galaxy. Coming down, the flanging was simply too beautiful for my human ears, so I cried and reassessed existence.
