Get the Theta mug.While seeming as a word a retard would use, beticus actually means “bet” or “no way”. If you don’t believe someone can do something, you can say beticus, which is often paired with theticus. Theticus has no real meaning, but makes the word Beticus sound better. Has become a meme in Ridgewood New Jersey, and May live forever.

Get the Thetes mug.A person who makes some kind of awkward comment on a status thread, which stops the thread dead in it's tracks.
Some of the reasons for the thread stopping on the thread killer's comment:
1. Other threaders don't know this person well, so take the comment in a negative light.
2. They remember her/him being a "weirdo" in school/former or current job, etc.
3. Other comments in the past by the thread killer were confusing and possibly: crude, inappropriate or might appear hurtful, due to the absence of a smilies or winkies.

Look at how long this badminton status thread was going, until Brian commented this:
The best strategy is to try to hit the shuttlecock straight into the opponent's naughty places.
He sure is a thread killer!

Get the thread killer mug.When a person starts a posting on a message board, or forum, or Facebook, that others are able to comment on, that original posting and the comments on it are called a thread. A thread hijacking occurs when one or more individuals commenting on the original posting, go off topic, creating a separate conversation. This is rude, and bad internet etiquette. If people want to discuss a different topic, they should start their own thread.
Below is a thread, consisting of an original posting and comments on that original posting. They illustrate a thread hijacking.
original posting: I'm so excited that my cat has learned to use the toilet with City Kitty! The training seemed like it took forever, but it's so worth it to not have to deal with a litter box any more! Has anyone else done this?
comment 1: Ugh! I just started training my cat, but he can't seem to move beyond the orange stage. How'd you get through that?
comment 2: I'm training my dog at PetCo classes. She's very smart. She learns the commands faster than the other dogs.
comment 3: I'm training my dog in PetCo classes too. They have great trainers. They're patient with the dogs and the people.
Comments 2 and 3 are off topic and are hijacking this thread. The person who made comment 2 should have started their own thread. The person who made comment 3 is guilty of continuing the hijacking.

Get the threaders mug.A male who is a mystic and an ascetic; a male who is dedicated to fully embodying a disciplined and purifying spiritual lifestyle. Embodies only the deepest modes of mystique evidenced in the multi-dimensional Zeta male, but without the Zeta's ability to shift modes such as rebellion mode due to permanently dedicated to the status of being a monk. Also does not feel the emotions of any of the other categories of male.
They made fun of his act but like a true Theta male, there was zero trace of any discouragement or anything reactive at all to be found in his demeanor as he withdrew from the scene.
