Egging is fun prank that the youth of today enjoy alot. It is the art of throwing eggs, usally at cars, houses and sometimes people. Its really annoying, stinks and is a bitch to clean off. But its fun to do, to watch people shout at you and looks great when the egg explodes all of a surface, even better if its a person! When you throw loads of eggs at one thing it is called slaugtering. It is usally done on halloween.

Get the Erving Speech mug.Technological edging is the broad concept of intentionally delaying the practical use or possession of a technology in order to capitalize on potential new and better innovations of the technology. The term 'edging' brazenly refers to the sexual act of edging, meaning to delay orgasm in order to achieve a more satisfying ending.
Specifically, technological edging could mean holding out on buying a new smartphone or PC, even if you desperately need one, in order to capitalize on next year's advancements in consumer tech. In other words, people delay buying in order to not feel sad when the next best tech comes out, so they might as well wait for another year.
Technological edging can also apply to much bigger and broader ultimate goals, such as delaying future space exploration (on mars, the moon, etc.) in order to capitalize on the future impending innovations of science and technology. Such a move, in one's opinion, may be the wiser option.
