Tween Wave 

On June 8, 2011, South Park brought attention to this pandemic of "shitty" music which is plaguing our world.

"A new music genre for the era of 2009 - 2012 (tweens)... If you have kids now, they're probably listening to it" - South Park s15e07

It's most notable list of mutated infants include Justin Beiber, Jonas Brothers, and the entire cast of Glee (except Jane Lynch).

Signs you are listening to Tween Wave music: When all you can hear is someone ripping ass into the microphone over a drumbeat. More precisely when it sounds like shit is spilling out of the speakers and puddling on the floor.
"Did you know we're living in the Tween time?... I guess it's the peroid between 2009 and 2012..." - redneck 1

"der I'd heard that." - redneck 2

"So they got this feller down at the bowling alley who gets up on stage and shits his britches.. " - 1

"what fer?" - 2

"I don't know, but he gets up there and strums a geetar and starts loadin' up his britches up like it's goin' out of style... It's like some sort of 'britches holocaust'... he calls it Tween Wave" - 1

Thanks South Park!

tween wave 

The dominant musical genre between the years 2009 and 2012. It combines electronic beats with vocals that are so simple anyone could sing them. To most, this genre sounds like shit. Popular tween wave artists include Rebecca Black, Justin Bieber and, debatably, brokeNCYDE.
Hey, Josephine! Have you heard the new "tween wave" song?
Yeah, it sounds like shit.

Tween Wave 

Simply: it's popular music from 2009 to 2012. Coined by the creators of South Park in the episode "You're getting old." They are not making fun of a specific band, artist, or anything like that (maybe dubstep would be the best genre to describe tween wave). People are over-thinking this making it seem like they are ripping on Justin Bieber or something, but its a simple definition idiots.
I was just listening to a radio station that plays the most popular new songs, and that tween wave music sounds like total shit!

Tween Wave 

Parent's don't get it.

(from the south park episode where the kids think the parent's music sound literally like crap, and vice-versa)
Dude my mom won't let me listen to tween wave. She just doesn't get it.

Tween Wave 

A sudden (not very long lasting) phase or trend that kids from the ages about 10-14 are generally interested in. Tween Waves interest people who are in the stage when you are too old for toys but not quite mature for anything else.
Guy 1: Have you heard the new pop-band Fighting Daisies?

Guy 2: That's too tween wave for me. I'm 21.

Tweetwave 

A large amount of tweets in a short amount of time
I just don't understand why I received this tweetwave of feedback where people were telling me "Oh it's not hot in the summer".

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!"
