Gribblies

A gribbly or gribblies is a patched or wanna be patched motorcycle ride, usually riding a Harley Davidson or other sort of horrendous bike.

They are too cool for school or double hard to acknowledge you unless to do you over in some fashion.
Don't nod at them as you pass they are a bunch of gribblies and will ignore you like the rude gits they are.

Gribble flange

(grĭb′əl flănj)

n.

A Gribble flange is actually the device that causes electronic and mechanical devices to fail just a few weeks after warranty expires. Accurately tunable to suit different warranty periods. Perfected by Apple to require only a new improved OS every six months or so.

Formerly seen as a money grabbing device to benefit the manufacturer, now seen by Gen Y as no more than a friendly reminder that whatever the device is, it's about time we had a new one. In a different colour.
Ted: 'Where's your new iThingy?'

Bill: 'The Gribble Flange kicked in early - it's in the shop for repairs. Hope they forget to reset the timer chip.'

Gribble Filter

(grĭb′əl fɪltə)

See Gribble flange

n.

A particulate filter is a device composed of fibrous materials which removes solid particulates such as dust, pollen, mould, and bacteria from the air. This type of filter is used in applications where air quality is important, notably in building ventilation systems and in engines.

A Gribble filter is such a device, but designed or positioned specifically by the manufacturer in a location that causes the maximum amount of dirt to accumulate in the filter, causing the Gribble flange effect to kick in: A correctly located filter may require renewal every 24 to 36 months. A Gribble Filter gets dirty in weeks, and is usually so well hidden or difficult to replace that the user continues to breathe in filthy unfiltered air so that they don't have to pay a technician to find and replace the costly Gribble element.

Formerly seen as a money grabbing device to benefit the manufacturer, now seen by Gen Y as no more than a friendly reminder that whatever the device is filtering, it's about time we had a new one. With a snazzy corporate logo on it. In a different colour.
Ted: 'What's that filthy thing in your hand ?'

Bill: 'The Gribble filter from my car. It failed early as anticipated, and the car is now in the shop for repairs. Hope they forget to reset the Gribble Flange timer chip.'

greeblies

In the Lego online community, greeblies are the intricate details on the sides of spaceships and sci-fi MOCs that define the mechanics and workings of what the MOC is meant to be. They were famously used in the giant Star Destroyer Lego set a few years ago, and also in the more recent Death Star II set. Plates with rails are often used for greeblies because they have a protrusion that only sticks out half a stud without needing a jumper plate. (source: Brickspace.org)
