to Blodgetize (v): to proclaim something as fact even though the information stated originates from deep inside one's ass. Most appropriate when making predictions of a company's stock price, earning estimates, or other financial related facts. Henry Blodget, the disgraced internet analyst, is known to have perfected the technique of passing off complete bullshit stock estimates as fact in the late 1990s and early 2000s.
Gene Muenster predicted there would be 600K iPads sold over Easter weekend. That way way off, he completely Blodgetized his estimates.
Any situation during which one is forced to do something they would rather not do. This includes any number of things, but is most often used in the context of a laboratory.
Also an adjective describing one's ridiculous mannerisms or demands - usually those of an authority figure.
Bowdgery is also an acceptable variation of bowdge.
Pronounced bowj (like bow but with the juh sound on the end)
Damn man this is complete bowdgery; I legitimately thought that test was next week.

While our lifespan is the number of years we will live, our healthspan is the number of healthy years we will have and our sexspan is is the number of years we will continue to be healthy enough to continue having an active sex life.
A lighthearted reaction upon receiving disappointing news of some sort. Usually something that isn't a particularly a big deal, esp. when it primarily affects someone else - sort of a mild schadenfreude. Sometimes doubled or tripled, and possibly said in a sing-songy voice for added comedic effect to imitate a muted trumpet, which is how the meme originated.
You didn't get any napkins with your takeout pork fried rice? Womp womp.
A phenomenon in film/television series, most notably streaming series, where the main premise is drawn out to such a point that it takes an entire season or more to get the parts of the series the audience is actually interested in seeing.
For example, if a series is titled "Surf Dracula," a majority of viewers would tune in expecting to see Dracula surfing by the first or second episode. However, the entire first season would instead be tedious padding and backstory before finally ending with Dracula surfing in the last five minutes of the season finale.
I watched "Smallville" on Netflix the other day. Dude, it was ten seasons of filler before he finally flew! Major Surf Dracula Syndrome!
