College Confidential

A "college help forum" that breeds elite nerd factions. Everyone wants to know their "chances" of getting into a certain Ivy school, but everyone knows that if you don't have an inspiring life story you can't get in in the first place.

Disc Locked Content

A form of DLC included with games where instead of paying for downloadable content, you pay for a tiny (around 80 kilobytes) file that unlocks the content that is already on the disc.
I was going to buy additional characters for SF x Tekken, but then I realized it was disc locked content.

Confident Texter

The act of being overly confident during times of texting and FB chatting, while when seeing the textee in person lacking any social skills at all.
Yeah this person said so much stuff to me when he/she texted me last night like "you are so beautiful we need hangout right now!" The next day I saw him/her in class and all he/she said was "hey". Such a confident texter.
