AIM-Meandering

A predicament that occurs when you are in separate AIM conversations with two or more people and try to keep all of them going at once. Many times, your conversation interest may begin to veer toward one person, so the other people are left waiting for your response to a conversation you've lost interest in or forgotten about.

Person123: Um... you still there?

(You're AIM-Meandering.)

You456: Yeah, sorry dude, just writing a paper and giving the dog a bath, you know.

Reference Laundering

An article, poll, study, etc. which on face value would be dismissed, that is cited in progressively more reputable sources, until the original nonsense has credibility.

Person1: “I read on Politico that intero-recto-gestion is actually healthier then eating with your mouth.”
Person2: “That article is total Reference Laundering. If you click on the reference, Politico cited Vox, who cited Mashable, who cited Unicorn Riot, who cited an Onion Article based on a South Park episode.”
Person1: “so I’ve been shoving food up my butt for no reason!”

Research Laundering

Like money laundering, but with your research paper. You take info from a source you aren't allowed to use (wikipedia, etc.) and credit the info to a crap source. You get to use understandable info and count extra sources for your works cited.

Yeah I just used wikipedia have been research laundering the info for my other source.

Fag Laundering

When someone completes a transaction of very homosexual content, and/or including "snowballing", "Ass-kiting", and the ever-famous "cock-waffling."

Wow, your a fag launderer.

Is it wrong, to exchange butterfly nut-kisses?

Fag Laundering is illegal in my asshole.

compliment laundering

telling someone a third party has said something nice about them, rather than owning the compliment directly.

Alice told Bob that Carol thinks he's handsome, but Alice was actually compliment laundering.
