David Sedaris the author of such works as ME TALK PRETTY ONE DAY and HOLIDAYS ON ICE. His wit, self-deprecating humor and mockery of social conventions are but the few delightful treats you'll find in his work. The true heart of Sedaris seeps through in his oddly endearing tales of self, family and loves. Sedaris is quite possibly one of the greatest writers of our time.
My sister and I pulled a David Sedaris last night when we scrubbed the calcium residue off our parents' shower then proceeded to rearrange their furniture while they were asleep.

A play on the word Research.
The event when students in college are reading for homework, research & essay writing, but gets bored and stops after a certain amount of text, then goes googling things, and/or searching on facebook, youtube, twitter, myspace, etc. Then later return to the reading, only to repeat the process. This extends the time required to get through a reading assignment and often adds hours to the task.

In the middle of the Sega Genesis' life cycle (c. 1992,) commercials for Genesis games would be punctuated with a very short sound clip of a man yelling "SEGA!" at the top of his lungs. The yell usually came from a character in the commercial itself. It was a beautiful bit of brand identity, as everybody from the kids the company was targeting with the ads to parents and grandparents everywhere recognized the yell. The Sega Scream faded away with the introduction of the Sega Saturn (much like the company,) but was reintroduced in 2000 in an effort to drum up interest in the Sega Dreamcast. The power of the Scream had waned, however, and now only Sega fanboys recognized the once mighty call.
"Not a day goes by that I don't miss the Sega Scream. Also, I haven't touched a girl in like 5 months. SO LONELY," lamented the author of the definition.
