dropset

A set in weightlifting where an exercise is done until failure to complete more reps then immidiate switching to lower weight until failure is achieved. Repeat the process until you are unable to lift 5 lbs. This exercise helps achieve the lean look rather than the bulky one.

Con drop

A sudden period of feeling generally down and/or depressed after attending a convention. It is usually preceeded by a time of being "high" on endorphins and energy, feeling really great about the con before it hits you like a ton of bricks.

Con drop can happen anywhere from a few hours to a few days after leaving, and is accompanied by an intense need to go to another convention or be with friends who were there as well.

Someone in con drop will be particularly susceptible to signing up for the next convention they're told about.
Dave: Hey, I just got an email about FoodCon 2011. What do you think about going?
Joe: Dude, I'm in con drop! Now I have to go sign up for it!

DROP D

The difference of drop D from standard tuning allows for the three bass strings to form a D5 power chord, which can be shifted up or down the fretboard with a single finger (usually the index) to produce any power chord quickly and easily. Drop-D also enables the guitarist to play a step lower than in standard tuning, and many artists value this deeper, fuller sound.

Dropped D tuning is perhaps most widely used in heavy metal or rock music as they take full advantage of the easier power chord transitions needed for extremely fast playing. However, the tuning has also been used in many other types of music, including blues, country, and folk. Most modern metal guitarists use or have used Drop D tuning.

This tuning may be the most prominent tuning in modern rock and metal, but it is not uncommon for these guitarists to play in E-flat tuning/down tuning or dropped C tuning.

Drop D also allows fingerpickers to play chord shapes higher up the neck while maintaining an alternating bass.
Drop D is for people who are actually capable of playing the guitar FAST.
