reboot

1. To restart a computer when it's acting like a little bitch. Common on old Mac and Windows systems, not so common on old Linux boxes, rare on modern computers.

2. To restart a movie, comic, TV, or book franchise in hopes that it won't jump the shark again. Sometimes works spectacularly (Battlestar Galactica). Sometimes falls flat on its face.
1. "If there's an error, we have this routine called panic, and when it is called, the machine crashes, and you holler down the hall, 'Hey, reboot it.'" --Dennis Ritchie

2. I was contemplating the idea of a Knight Rider reboot the other day. Would be interesting, definitely, but would it really be Knight Rider without the Hoff?

reblog

Blogging about a blog. See blog

This is generally a cop-out method for coming up with something to put on your own blog, as the reblog offender is simply writing about another blogger's thoughts (and, of course, linking them in the hope that they'll get a trackback themselves).
All that bilge rat ever does is blog about entries on other blogs. He's a dirty reblogger!

regoogletate

An act of one-upmanship in which one inserts Google search results into a chat with the intent of surpassing an obscure reference with something even more obscure or esoteric. As such acts of regoogletation follow one another the chance for being busted with an elgoogable reference increase significantly. The word itself is a portmanteau of regurgitation, retaliation and googling.
Tubalcain: Bruce can't not know about something. Whatever you say he's going to throw out an elgoogable for.
Spooork: I think he has Male Answer Syndrome. Why don't you regoogletate him next time and see if you can get him looping.
