A term used to describe how young children (typically between 5 and 10 years old) can make their parents do anything they want by bugging them until they crack.
The term was coined by the media in the late 1990’s and gets batted around a lot around Christmas time so as not to offend parents who lack the testicular fortitude to say no to their children.

Get the blonde powermug. A form of experimental/industrial noise music distinguished from others by a semblance of rhythm and the presence of coherent vocals intended to carry a message. It is often used as an outlet for obsessions such as crime (as in the band Slogun, for example), and extreme political views; Thee Grey Wolves, for example, named themselves after a Turkish terrorist faction and convey an ostensibly anarchist message.
While the differences between standard experimental noise and power electronics are highly debatable, the differences usually include ones already stated, the types of noises used (e.g. "white noise" vs. "pink noise"), and the presence of themes in power electronics.
The origins may include, but are certainly not limited to, the famous self described "extreme electronic" group Whitehouse, who used their music as an outlet for their interest in mass murder, dictatorship, sexual violence, etc. , and early {Industrial band SPK, who proposed, in one of their "dokuments," that noise could be used to induce sensory and mental information overload to break down everyday rational modes of thought and lead the listener to new experiences and possibilities in thought.

Get the black powermug. To 'beat the meat' within seconds of ejaculation, then stopping. Enjoy the feeling for a while. Wait for the feeling to stop, then beat until you are within seconds of blowing again. Repeat for a good few hours, then while you do finally blow your load, it will feel a million times better than any wank, blowjob, fuck or sheep shagging.
Well recommended.
