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.

mouth fagging

When a smoker has a drag at a cigarette so that smoke is inhaled into the mouth without reaching the lungs and exhales immediately. The habit is typically found among amateur smokers, movie actors and retarded teenagers smoking to look cool.

Nina doesn't smoke often but when she does she is just mouth fagging it.

fagging out

getting really excited about something to the point that it stirs something deep inside

Note: has no reference to homosexuals, only to this very particular behavior

John was fagging out in the movie theater over the new Avengers trailer.

Tim and Bill were fagging out in the backseat to some old Aerosmith song; they are 80s freaks.
