tsa wiener screener

a security agent that takes extra pride in 'grasping' their role and 'handling' their responsibilities while 'protecting' flyers 'freedom(s)'

so I hear you are flying for your vacation? Be sure to take extra draws and some kleenex, there's a good chance they may 'come' in 'handy' when you face the TSA wiener screener

Free Screening Syndrome

The human brain's ability to enjoy a mediocre or worse film way more than it should because said film was screened in advance or for free.

"George said that flick was really good, I thought it sucked."
"Yeah, but he saw it like two years ago when they were testing it. He thinks he's special. Free Screening Syndrome."

Screening

When you read a BBM message without actually opening the conversation, so the sender does not know that it has been read. This makes it easier to avoid them because the sender is unaware they are being ignored.

I was so annoyed with Jake so I started screening his messages.

screener

A pre vhs tape, sent to rental stores, and various other places for promotional use. A screener is supplied on a vhs tape, and is usually in a 4:3 (fullscreen) a/r, although letterboxed screeners are sometimes found. The main draw back is a "ticker" (a message that scrolls past at the bottom of the screen, with the copyright and anti-copy telephone number). Also, if the tape contains any serial numbers, or any other markings that could lead to the source of the tape, these will have to be blocked, usually with a black mark over the section. This is sometimes only for a few seconds, but unfortunately on some copies this will last for the entire film, and some can be quite big. Depending on the equipment used, screener quality can range from excellent if done from a MASTER copy, to very poor if done on an old VHS recorder thru poor capture equipment on a copied tape. Most screeners are transferred to VCD, but a few attempts at SVCD have occured, some looking better than others.

(Sometimes abbreviated with SCR, DVDSCR.)

Gray Screening

The act of sending multiple text messages to someone without receiving a reply, causing the visible range of the iphone text message (sms) screen to be filled solely with gray message bubbles.

Note: The accumulation of texts causing a "gray screen" can occur over minutes, hours, or days; as long as the consecutive stream or thread of messages (multiple gray message bubbles) is uninterrupted by the recipient sending a reply (green message bubble)

Hudson: You know that girl I met at Dan's Cafe Friday night?
David: Yeah?
Hudson: Well, she totally gray screened me last night.
David: Dude...sounds like a clinger to me.
Hudson: Yeah, stage nine.

or:

This girl has been gray screening the hell out of me!
