1. When a video that is being streamed over the internet fails to play during a lecture, presentation, etc. This generally occurs because the video is unable to buffer fast enough.
Although the phenomena has surely existed for some time it has been dubbed "Degiglio'd," in honor of Ken Degiglio. Ken is a teacher who never seems to be able to play his videos when he wants too during his lectures. This results in much awkward fumbling, pathetic excuses, and other actions no man should partake in, or condone.
It should be clear to all that to be Degligio'd is too fail.
The lecture started out great until Ken decided to introduce some multimedia courtesy of the internet. Unfortunately the internet wasn't in the mood for it and Ken soon found himself thoroughly Degiglio'd. After all his pathetic excuses and awkward fumbling he hardly had the energy to finish the lecture. Deep inside Ken prayed he would never be Degiglio'd again but he already knew he was doomed.
EBK stands for "Elite Ball Knowledge." 1 In internet slang, "ball knowledge" originally referred to a deep understanding of football/soccer or basketball, but it has evolved into a broader term for having a highly sophisticated, deep, or niche understanding of any specific topic (such as music, movies, or subcultures).
Person A: "That scene was a direct homage to an unreleased 1982 Japanese indie film."
Person B: "Wow, EBK."
Texas is categorized as a swing state in presidential elections, but has voted for Republicans more times than for Democrats in recent history. As such, as demographics change political alignments, some Democrats believe that Texas will vote blue, or Democratic, due to their Hispanic and African American voters, who often align themselves with the Democratic Party's liberal wing.
Blexas has been cited as possible in the upcoming decades, but only if Democrats continue to win the Hispanic vote in bigger margins.
Democrat 1: What is your prediction for the 2024 presidential election?
Democrat 2: Well uh, Blexas!
Democrat 1: You've been saying that since 2008 though.
Brought to public attention by Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein in the book on the fall of Richard Nixon, All The President’s Men, ratfucker was Nixon’s term for a political operative who sows chaos among opponents; an agent provocateur. It is thought to have originated among campus political rivalries at USC, and seems to have some usage in the US military.
Along with Nixon’s other ratfuckers, Roger Stone caused fights at otherwise peaceful Democratic Party protests to generate a false narrative that the Democrats were violent and dangerous.
Term used to describe someone who is a mix of both rural (country) and urban (metropolitan) lifestyles/upbringings. He/she is typically equally comfortable in both settings and is able to seamlessly slip back and forth between the two, appreciating the characteristics of each.
That ol' gal of mine drives the 12 lane freeway during the week and a John Deere on the weekends. She likes opra and the Grand Ol' Opry. I love them countrypolitan women.
