Dead Screening

The act of sitting in front of a computer screen and surfing for information and entertainment mindlessly. A more brain-dead type of surfing the internet that commonly occurs at or between the times of 10:00pm and 2:00 am. The information found while Dead Screening is not usually remembered the next day. To come out of Dead Screening is an impossible task until you cannot think of anything more to search, fall asleep at the computer or are disturbed in some way by a partner, power cut or internet crash.

*FB chat between Friends*
Guy1: sup

*In the office the next day*
Guy1: Hey man, what time did you get to bed last night, you look like shit!
Guy2: ooh umm, iunno I was Dead Screening until 3:25 am
Guy1: what did you find?
Guy2: iunno...

loading screen

Flat, open, fields with no scenery typically located between towns in the Midwest.

The Midwest is in dire need of a server upgrade. Such long loading screens for so little content.

Much like the Massive Effect elevators, the farm land in the Midwest serves as a loading screen between content where you can still interact with the game.

Screen Door

Screen Door or Screen Dooring is having diarrhea so bad that you can shit clean through a screen door, without leaving chuncks behind.

I.E; drinking way to much or eating spoiled food that causes you to have extreme diarrhea.

Pajo was barking orders at me all day long, so i fixed him a sandwhich with some spoiled mayonaise... He spend the next two days screen dooring!

Cracked Screen App

When you crack your iPhone screen for some reason, but you just keep using it since it still works. It is free to get this app but if you want to get rid of it, you need to pay around $70 to get it fixed.

TT: How was the party last night?
AK: I got hella drunk last night and I blacked out. I noticed I got the Cracked Screen App on my iPhone when I woke up this morning.
