Godwin's Exception

When a forum member intentionally references Nazis or Hitler to close a thread, the forum member concedes any right to continue the thread, but the thread is not considered closed.
User1: Absolutely ridiculous. You know who else had a special police force that jailed their citizens for disagreeing with them? That's right. The Nazi party.
User2: I'm calling Godwin's Exception. The Godwin's Corollary only functions when you mean it. You're clearly trying to short circuit the conversation.

Exept

verb. The misspelling of "except" when trying to say "accept."

This occurred on Facebook with the "Friends Exposed" app, when it asks you the question:

"If ____ were to bring you flowers and a box of chocolates and ask you to go out with them, would you exept?"

What they were trying to ask was, "Would you accept?" yet they not only spelled it wrong, but they used the wrong word.
Man: If I asked you out, would you exept?

Woman: If by "exept" you mean "accept," yes I would love to!

Exception List

For people in a committed relationship, a list of people with whom they are allowed to have sexual encounters with.

The term comes from the people on the list being "exceptions" to your committed relationship. i.e. "I'm not allowed to have sex with anyone but my girlfriend..... except for Jennifer Aniston"

Both men and women can have exception lists and in most relationships where they're used each person will have their own list.

Typically the people on an exception list are models or celebrities or people whom you would never expect to have a chance to sleep with. Although it is possible to have an exception list naming a co-worker or a friend this would not be common.
Carrie Underwood is so hot. I'm adding her to my exception list!
