Stormtrooper Syndrome 

A syndrome that’s identified with the symptoms of poor aim with a weapon (usually a gun), poor situational awareness, borderline useless tactics (such as not staying discreet), and 20/100+ vision (poor vision).

Basically the list of symptoms Stormtroopers suffer from Star Wars and is usually used to describe someone in a video game or in Laser tag.

Storm Trooper Syndrome 

n. (STS) A form of mental illness in which the afflicted finds storm troopers to be cool. Symptoms include dressing up like a storm trooper often (not just Halloween), branding one's clothing with the Star Wars Imperial logo, joining storm trooper fan clubs, and blowing all of one's money on Star Wars conventions. Subjects often think that their immature fantasies of being a storm trooper actually make them cool.

There are 4 stages of Storm Trooper Syndrome severity.
Stage 1: Commonly known as being "storm-curious". Lasts from 1 day to 4 weeks.
Stage 2: Early Onset STS. Lasts 1 month to 1 year.
Stage 3: College STS. (18-23 yrs old) Often thought to be beyond help at this stage.
Stage 4: Terminal STS. A progression of Stage 3 STS. Patient has either graduated/dropped out of college, now has a drug dependency and realizes they wasted their college years pretending to be a storm trooper. Often seen sleeping in cardboard boxes.

STS is a real condition. If you notice a loved one displaying any of these symptoms get them help immediately.
Did you see that guy at the bar last night dressed up as a storm trooper? At first I thought I forgot my Halloween costume, then I realized it was June and that he was suffering from Storm Trooper Syndrome.

Hey do you remember that tall guy from the party? Yeah the one with College Storm Trooper Syndrome. Apparently he wears that storm trooper coat he made everywhere he goes.

That homeless guy in the gutter over there, poor guy suffers from Stage 4 Storm Trooper Syndrome. Apparently he wasted his time in college, was banking on being the star of "Storm Troopers the Musical" play was never even written. Now he just tells stories about the Battle of Alderaan, and his escape from the Death Star.

girl grip 

The ability girls and women have developed to hold several items at once in one hand. The skill has been developed due to the lack of pockets in women's clothing.
I thought she'd need multiple trips to carry her phone, keys, wallet, and Starbucks to her car since she needed the other hand to open the door, but she used her impressive girl grip to carry everything in one hand.

The word 'flag' as pronounced by people with thick Belfast accents. The term is a perfect encapsulation of the disproportionate and overblown reaction to the removal of the Union Jack (as in 'de fleg') from above City Hall in Belfast. Where previously it had flown for 365 days per year, it is now flown on 17 designated days of the year - in line with many other British cities.

The event caused a portion of the Protestant community ('fleggers') to make international pricks of themselves as they proceeded to wreck the fucking place, claiming it was another erosion of a 'British' identity they perceive to have been under attack since the horrifying spectre of equality reared its head in Northern Ireland.

The word 'fleg' - and indeed 'fleggers' - fittingly describes a section of humanity unconcerned with knowledge, reality or the vagaries of the English language. Like America's tea-baggers they are ruled by instinct, fear and paranoia with a side dish of rampant bigotry and startling ignorance of the world around them.
"Wat de fuck like! The taigs got de fleg took down! Let's wreck de fuckin place! No surrender!"

"De fleg has been took down! Before ye know it there'll be a united Ireland! Attack Short Strand! God Save The Queen!"
