bible-thumper

(So called because some evangelists literally thump their Bibles to emphasize important parts of a sermon.)

A person whose religious beliefs include strict adherence to the Bible. He is likely to deliver angry sermons to anyone who believes differently, even if that "difference" means belonging to a church that disagrees with his interpretation of Scriptures.
DeeDee's co-workers called her a Bible-thumper after she tacked gospel tracts onto the office bulletin board.

Thumper's Law

Named after the rabbit from Disney's Bambi, whose father told him "If you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all." It is way of teaching of keeping derogatory comments to oneself in respect to those who aren't as able as you are to avoid conflict.

Thumps Up

A term that is often used by users commenting on the YouTube.com website to describe the act of hitting the "Thumbs Up" button on YouTube. Often used in reply to videos that are either very popular (pop music, new movie trailers, comedy shorts, or "Fail" videos), or "ghetto fight" videos that stimulate the viewers brains into complete and utter fuckification of words.

Usually attributed to poor education as a child, overuse of spellcheck, or in the most liekly scenario, both.

Also attributed to people who purposely misspell words to be cool while interacting with their peers through textual services that are likely unable to spell the original word.

icky thump

"The White Stripes announced the completion of Icky Thump on February 28, 2007. The title is derived from "ecky-thump", a Lancashire colloquial response of surprise, popularized by an episode of the 1970s UK comedy series The Goodies. On Later with Jools Holland (broadcast June 1, 2007) Jack attributed the album's name to its use as an exclamation by his wife, who is from Lancashire. He added that the deliberate misspelling was to make it easier for an American audience to identify with.5 The liner notes for Icky Thump also suggest the spelling variation was due to concerns over copyright infringement." From an entry at a well-known online encyclopedia.
