Sontagonism 

A rejection that new photography students feel of the controversial theories about photography presented by Susan Sontag - in her 1971 book On Photography. It is a blend of "antagonism" and the mentioned cultural theorist and activist's last name. She's also known for having a relationship with Annie Leiborvitz, you know, the chick that photographed John Lennon with Yoko Ono.

Sontagonism usually results when people who just want to take photographs with their digital camera are assaulted by theories of Sontag at University or art school - much like how Sontag claims that taking photos is an assault in itself, likening it to a "gun-fantasy" where photos are "shot".

West Midlands slang word for rockers, bikers, greasers etc. In the late 1980s it was used by the UK music press to refer to a specific scene centered around the bands Pop Will Eat Itself and Crazyhead. The term never found favour with readers of 'the inkies' (Sounds, Melody Maker and the still extant NME) and was soon dropped. Now often used in predominantly working-class areas of the midlands and the north to mean someone who listens to rock-derived music and/or dresses in a manner that suggests they affiliate themselves with rock music of some kind.
