Flangler

Someone who, in response to a question they know is the start of a joke, insists on supplying their own punchline, thus ruining the joke.

Yelena is such a flangler, she totally just ruined my joke.

ned flangers

Code between jamming buddies to use the Flanger effect pedal on the guitar for the song they're about to play.
A warm hearted reference to Ned Flanders, neighbor of The Simpsons.

Ex ;

E - " What pedal you gonna use for that ? "

M - " Dude ! Ned Flangers man ! "

Flaggleraggle

(flag-LER-aggle)

Feigning interest in a subject for the sake of a tenuous link.

I don't think Mel even likes Ben Folds. She's only going to see him because Seth Cohen from The OC has a Ben Folds Five poster in his bedroom. How very flaggleraggle of her.

flanger

A guitar effect that does not work like a wah pedal. It does, however, work as a continually variable delay pedal. The delay on a flanger is too short to hear as an echo and the rate of delay expands and contracts to set intervals during a set amount of time according to how the operator programs it.

The effect is called "flange" because before the advent of flanger pedals, sound engineers and musicians would press the inside of the thumb (the "flange") onto the tape reel to slow it down and speed it up to achieve the desired effect.

Forget the flanger in anything by Simple Plan; just listen to Thru the Eyes of Ruby by the Smashing Pumpkins!
