Farnsworth Phenomenon

Auditory phenomenon wherein reading a line of text commonly attributed to a person or persons with a particularly unique voice or accent causes the mind to hear that person's voice. This is not unique to famous individuals, as works clearly written with various accents (Irish, French, Pirate) yield similar results.

So named after the character Professor Farnsworth in Futurama.
So my buddy texted me, 'What's the Farnsworth Phenomenon?', so I texted him back, 'What do you think of when I type 'Good News Everyone?', a minute later he sends me back a '=O'

Farnia

This girls is amazing. She's Supa Fly. She's taken over the world vitually and in theory. With her partners in crime, Xia and Shirley, she will do it in practice.
She also happens to be a super genius.
That test was hard...i bet Farnia still passed though.

jim-facing

(also Jimfacing, Jim facing) Is a sideways glance in reaction to events taking place. It is named after the character Jim Halpern on "the Office" (played by John Krasinski) as he often reacts with a smug sideways glance suggesting calm disbelief, or a much deeper understanding of the situation unfolding than the other people do.
Jomny Sun's tweet: "The only good moment of this inauguration was Michelle jim-facing the camera like 'why did she give me this box'"

Peter Facinelli

An incredibly talented and down-to-earth actor who became famous after starring in the popular TV show "Fastlane". He went on to star in The Twilight saga playing the hottest doctor of all time, Carlisle Cullen, and again played a doctor in "Nurse Jackie".

He is the only male in the Twilight saga that is worth a second look and the only person in the whole movie who can ACTUALLY act. Robert Pattinson looks like a messed up druggie, Taylor Lautner is way too over-rated, Kristen Stewart is the most monotonous piece of crap with no personality whatsoever. Carlisle Cullen on the other hand...he is just the man every girl secretly has a crush on but won't admit it.

He is originally Italian, married to actress Jennie Garth and has three young daughters. Peter has a lovable personality, is very humble and makes every effort with things like charity events and connecing with his fans online through Twitter.

Peter has never fallen in bad publicity such as drugs/drunk driving. He charms everyone with his humour and amazing looks and is a great role model for aspiring young actors and actresses. In a decade from now, Peter Facinelli will be in the same league as Johnny Depp and Orlando Bloom.

Long live Peter Facinelli <3
Please make a Fastlane Season 2!
Example 1
Fangirl: OMG how HOT was that guy in Twilight!!

Fangirl2: OMG TELL ME ABOUT IT. TAYLOR LAUTNER IS NEXT LEVEL SEXY!

Fangirl1: wtf you on about? Who is Taylor Lautner?! I'm talking TEAM CARLISLE here!

Example 2
Fangirl3: Love your desktop background! Peter Facinelli is so hot!

Fangirl4: Totally! He looks so much like Johnny Depp in these pictures.

Farner

Farner is a term used to replace the word "fuck" on internet forums that do not allow profanity. It is a tribute to a vicious forum moderator who goes by the name "fishd00d" and has been known to suffer from a bad case of "God Complex" combined with "Napoleon Syndrome". It should be noted that "fishd00d" lived with his parents until the ripe age of 26 and weighs 89 pounds fully clothed holding a bag of bricks.
