winner's curse

phenomenon in auctions where the person who wins usually pays more than the auctioned item is worth

Yea I went to an auction yesterday and they had this painting that I knew I could resell for $200 but some douchebag bid $1000 for it. Ridiculous. Whatever, dude just got a mean case of winner's curse.

winner's edit

A term to describe when one particular contestant on a reality television show recieves a lot of camera time and is shown in a very positive light compared to the other contestants, and are only shown on the show when they are doing something good. This contestant goes on to win the reality show. The purpose of the "winner's edit" is to have the fans pleased with the final outcome because they find the winner endearing, when in reality (no pun intended) it only makes the show boring and predictable because it becomes pretty obvious who is recieving this winner's edit after only a few episodes. Antonymn: see loser's edit.

Person 1: I just watched the finale of Rock of Love 1! Guess who wins?

Person 2: *sigh* I didn't watch it, but clearly Jes won because she has a winner's edit. I stopped watching after episode 2.

Person 1: Yeah, all these vH1 shows stink because of the stupid winners' edits!

Winnebago Man

By far the funniest Video ever introduced into this world, Jack Rebney; "The Angriest Man Alive" was filming a commercial for Winnebbago in 1988, unfortunatly for him the commercial never made it to air but 4 minutes of outtakes did.

Jack Rebney's outrageously funny outbursts have made him a Cult hero.

Jack Rebney = The First EVER Viral Video Superstar

Maxwell: Hey, Have you seen that Winnebago Man Clip?

Ben R: Hahaha yea... “Will you do me a kindness Tony, will you?”

Maxwell: "Can you make sure... If you will, that we don't, and i know we don't but be sure

that you don't get any flys in frame"

Ben R: “We got flies all over the fuckin’ place.” “Get the fuck outta here.... you flies.”

Maxwell: “The accoutrama that you will need… ‘Accoutrama?!?’ What is that shit!?!”

Winner's Dance

When someone is so confident in winning a race or any other competition, that they dance in front of the finish line due to believing they'll cross it first. It is known to not end well for the "winner" as another competitor usually takes the "winner's" place right before they cross the finish line.

As a wise man once said: "winner's dance is a lie. It's the second place dance."

Joinen: "Winner's dance, colon, noun, did not win; but *did* dance. It's an activity actually. It's what you- It's a- It's a verb. It's a thing that you do. Uh, which is to not win, but to dance."

you're winner

A phrase from the PC Truck-racing game, Big Rigs.

In Big Rigs, it is impossible to lose, and every time you win a screen comes up with the words "You're Winner!" on it.

It can be used to denote a situation where the person addressed with the phrase is getting screwed over somewhat. It can also be used when the person being addressed did something grand, or got something grand.

People at Life, The Universe, and Everything use "You're Winner!" sarcastically.

"My friend just died..."
"YOU'RE WINNER!"
