drive-o-rama 

Slang fifties-inspired term for when a group of people pile into the car with no planned destination, just to indulge In the fun of driving together.
There was a moment of sheer ecstatic, nearly electrical joy that ran like a current through all of us, like when my dad used to yell out, “drive-o-rama!” on the weekend.

Drive-through Anxiety Disorder 

A newly identified mental health disorder describing an intense anxiety state that can arise, out of the blue, when one experiences nearly intolerable pressure to order the right food items in the fast food drive-through.
Suddenly I was sweating, paralyzed by a disabling fear, as I contemplated whether or not my wife had wanted cheese on her burger; then when I saw the commercial on DAD, or Drive-through Anxiety Disorder, I no longer felt so desperately alone.

Drive-by Liking 

A drive-by liking is when a Facebook user has responded to all messages, reviewed all notifications, planted their crops on Farmville, and updated their status etc. This person has basically exhausted all efforts to occupy their time on Facebook. Being left with a sense of emptiness and desperation for entertainment, this bored college student in question can perform a drive-by liking in one of two ways.

1) The individual will proceed to like everyone's status updates posted within the past four hours, completely ignoring the nagging feeling that they should be doing something productive with their life.

2) This kind of drive-by liking occurs when visiting a fellow Facebook whore's page and liking everything that the victim has done within the past couple of days. The goal of this is to ensure that upon logging in, the victim will be greeted with 99 notifications.

Drive-by likings should never discriminate. In fact, the most satisfying status updates to like are ones that: have absolutely NOTHING to do with you, include the letters FML, include a sad face, or are sprinkled with typos (and are posted at about 2:15 AM).

Performing a drive-by liking accomplishes a couple things: they make you feel 1337 next time you log in due to the fact that you will (if performed correctly) have 99 notifications yourself, and successfully wasted hours of life that you will never get back.
Examples of stati that have been the victim of a drive-by liking:

drive-by texting 

A text message sent by someone to try to stir things up, but when a response is made, no further messages are sent.
Similar to a drive-by shooting because after the assailant has disappeared, the victim is left riled up and frustrated.
Girl (out of the blue): "Haven't missed a beat have you?"

Guy: "What makes you say that?"

An hour passes with no response

Guy: "Drive-by texting?"
