Get the Trekalicious mug.South Africa's "Telephone Company". More like a fucking ripoff monopoly, disallowing us to even get on the net during the day without paying our wallets away.

Get the Telkom mug.1)The only telephone company in South Africa, its an inefficient
para-statal, complete rip-off, and as a company doesn't
actually care.
2)Also used in IT as a synonym for a cock up or an
unserviceable task.

1)Why have you not checked your email in 3 months?
I applied two months ago, getting leet 512Kbps ADSL
the mainstay of broadband speed! (from Telkom naturally,
as there is no competition).
2)I've got to de-telkom someone elses source code!
They just telkommed our network in it's moer with that
backup.

Get the telkom mug.(n.) A fan, avid or otherwise, of at least one Star Trek series or movie. Devotees who totally immerse themselves in this subculture have given this term a somewhat negative stereotype, turning the majority of the fan base into the butt of many lame jokes. More "reality based" Trekkies, hoping to differentiate themselves from the habituous character-emulating, convention-attending crowd, choose to accept the label of "Trekker".
"John has the entire 3 seasons of the original Star Trek on DVD. What a Trekkie!"
"Nah... John's more of a Trekker. At least he doesn't go to half a dozen conventions a year dressed as a Klingon."

Get the Trekkie mug.A fan of Star Trek. They try to own all of the series DVDs, buy all the merchandise they can, and attend all conventions possible. They enjoy watching Star Trek and hanging out with other trekkies. Surprisingly, most of them have lives and are very nice people.

Get the trekkie mug.A fan of any iteration of Star Trek, not just the Next Generation as elsewhere noted.
Original series Star Trek fans have had a preference for trekker, not trekkie, going back to the early '70s and the first conventions.
At about that time, the mainstream media discovered Star Trek fandom with feature stories that usually had a condescending spin, including the term trekkie. These were along the lines of "Who are these trekkies and why do they gather by the thousands to profess their love for an old canceled TV show?"
Those features often focused on the most extreme aspects of fandom that of course looked weirdest to non-fans, and didn't delve into what it was about the show that made fans so passionate. Thus were the beginnings of the "nerdy" cliches that have come to be associated with fans. It was to avoid associations with such cliches that original Star Trek fans became opposed to trekkie and sought to get the more serious-sounding term trekker used.

"Yeah, I'm a Star Trek fan, but I'm not a trekkie, I'm a trekker. Why? Because it better reflects what being a fan is about."
