The Chain of Screaming

A Theory Made up by Barney Stinson (How I Met Your Mother) stating that there is a chain/cycle of screaming in which one (original screamer) yells at someone else, then that person yells at another person and another and another, so on and so forth. This chain/cycle will eventually lead back to the original screamer, ending the Chain of Screaming. AKA The Circle of Screaming or The Pyramid of Screaming.
Example: Arthur’s boss’s boss screams at Arthur’s boss, Arthur’s boss screams at Arthur, Arthur screams at Marshall, Marshall goes home and screams at his wife, Lily,Lily (a kindergarten teacher) screams at one of the kids in her kindergarten class (hmm, let’s say Mary), and then Mary goes home and screams at her dad, Arthur’s boss’s boss, thus ending The Chain of Screaming.

In space, no one can hear you scream.

This is the tagline for the film Alien, which was directed by Ridley Scott, not James Cameron, as currently stated on this site. Cameron directed the sequel, Aliens.
"In space, no one can hear you scream." is on e of the most quoted and parodied timelines in film history. It would have been more accurate if applied to Cuaron's Gravity, in which the silence of space plays a role in the narrative.

The process of causing someone to scream by taking an icy-cold popsicle from out of a freezer and then placing it directly upon the victims bare skin / body; ie: back, front or into any body opening, brrrr.
After slipping into the cozy warm bed and snuggling up next to their lover a prankster played the old screamsicle trick and nearly gave the surprised partner a heart attack.

Sega Scream

Quite possibly the single most ingenious video game marketing move ever. In the middle of the Sega Genesis' life cycle (c. 1992,) commercials for Genesis games would be punctuated with a very short sound clip of a man yelling "SEGA!" at the top of his lungs. The yell usually came from a character in the commercial itself. It was a beautiful bit of brand identity, as everybody from the kids the company was targeting with the ads to parents and grandparents everywhere recognized the yell. The Sega Scream faded away with the introduction of the Sega Saturn (much like the company,) but was reintroduced in 2000 in an effort to drum up interest in the Sega Dreamcast. The power of the Scream had waned, however, and now only Sega fanboys recognized the once mighty call.
"Not a day goes by that I don't miss the Sega Scream. Also, I haven't touched a girl in like 5 months. SO LONELY," lamented the author of the definition.
