18 wins, 1 Giant loss

A play on word used to describe the conclusion of the New England Patriots 2007 season in their loss at Super Bowl XLII. They had a perfect season coming in with 18-0 and lost to the New York Giants 17-14, hence 1 Giant loss.

windstream

A horrible ISP with high latency, low quality of service, and constantly dropped connections. They ranked very poorly in a February 2013 FCC broadband report with the highest land-based ping (67ms) and slowest peak-time bandwidth speeds (81% of advertised bandwidth). They bought up landlines from companies such as Altell and D&E Communications. They prey on rural areas with no other choice for a land-based broadband service. If you can avoid this ISP, do not get Windstream.
Guest: "Wow you internet is slow."
Homeowner: "Yeah, it's because we have Windstream."

A hillarious radio show that broadcasts out of Grand Rapids, Michigan. It is hosted by Gregg "Free Beer" Daniels, Chris "Hot Wings" Michels, Eric (Zeitunian) Zane, and Joe "Producer Joe" Gassmann, Jr. It's the BEST radio show ever and WAY better than those Bob and Tom idiots. www.freebeerandhotwings.com Please Listen!!!
I was listening to The Free Beer and Hot Wings Show this morning and laughed so hard I burst a kidney.

Winscho-Withdrawal

A feeling of numb emptiness felt by all individuals once they have returned home from their erasmus.
Symptoms:

A general lack of interest and commitment in the day to day activities of home life.

An inability to get excited and/or happy over issues which, prior to departure for erasmus, would trigger the above emotions.

Listening to upbeat music first discovered whilst on exchange that now leaves one with a strong sense of nostalgia and general sadness.

Giving up trying to explain to others how special your time away was because the words do not yet exist that would do it justice-
And frankly, They dont even know.

Example:

Person 1: "Hey, what's wrong with Clare? She seems so much cooler and more worldly since she came home from her erasmus but sometimes she gets this glazed 'far away' look in her eyes every time I play Austrian house music"

Person 2: "Oh, haven't you heard? She has a severe case of 'Winscho-Withdrawal' "
