Newsporn

High intensity -breaking- news that captivates the world and preempts all programming. Unlike most other news, it is recordable and rewatchable.

Osama bin Laden has been killed. CNN MSNBC and C-Span have interrupted their normal coverage to cover the event. My DVR says I'm recording "Unthinkable: The Alzheimer Epidemic", but I know better... I now have the largest newsporn stash on the east coast.

news porn

News porn: Extensive news coverage of an unfortunate but essentially unimportant event purely for the purpose of titilating the audience and stimulating their purient desires.

Examples of news porn covered on Fox News on Sept 18, 2007:

1) Blurry video of an Iranian woman being stoned in public. Presumably show to tap into people's growing desire to bomb the heck out of another Middle Eastern country.

2) Video of a heckler at a political talk being tasered by campus security. The TV commentators were so stimulated by this that they couldn't even figure out why they were excited it.

3) Coverage of the latest OJ Simpson arrest. Nobody really knows what happened but apparently it is very easy to come up with dozens of people to express their opinions on it.

Nutshot

It is said of the situation where a person has the bad luck to make contact with his testicles against an undefined surface or object, intentioned or not.
Given the nature of the word, it is more appropriate to design cases where the interaction is made with a moving object, for example, a ball.
Although it is extremely painful for the victim, it tends to be considerably funny to people who witness it.

Today in the baseball game the pitcher took a nutshot; the baseball hit him in the nuts.

Man, I just watched the funniest nutshot video ever.

Nerd neck

A "human" that spends so much time playing video games that their posture is level nerd neck. Everytime anyone goes tryhard they hunch down and their neck gets longer there fore a nerd neck is always hunched down cause they're always going try hard. In other words a nerd neck is a try hard, since their neck is 100% longer than the average human being due to playing too many video games and taking them serious, nerd necks are not even considered human anymore but something more sad. Nerd necks are often found on fortnite, their natural habitat usually being tilted towers.
