Verb: Phonetic spelling of otherwise overused acronym "LOL" (laughing our loud) found often in chats and e-mails.

Used so often, the acronym appears to many viewers be imbued with the pronunciation "ellowel," so 'Dave the Painting Guy' deemed "ellowel" an actual word, campaigning to change LOL to ellowel beginning in January 2009. (Dec. 31, 2008 recording on uStream bears the campaign's beginning).
"You make me ellowel."

"When I read that, I totally elloweled."

A Cornish girl's name meaning "elm".

A quiet, shy girl that likes to make everyone happy. She loves nature and spends much of her time tending to her flower garden. She has some musical talent, but it's not her main focus. She has light brown hair and large, innocent, green eyes. She is extremely slow to anger- she's very good at seeing situations from multiple perspectives- but on the rare occasion when she raises her voice, people immediately back down. She is also extremely modest, both in clothing and when receiving compliments. Elowen is a petite girl and as a result, people see her as being extremely cute, rather than beautiful or sexy. She makes this up by being extremely loyal and light-hearted. She usually wears a small, delicate smile on her face.
That Elowen has such a green thumb.

She's too modest to take a compliment, just like an Elowen.

She must be an Elowen judging from her pure and delicate personality.

Brought to public attention by Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein in the book on the fall of Richard Nixon, All The President’s Men, ratfucker was Nixon’s term for a political operative who sows chaos among opponents; an agent provocateur. It is thought to have originated among campus political rivalries at USC, and seems to have some usage in the US military.
Along with Nixon’s other ratfuckers, Roger Stone caused fights at otherwise peaceful Democratic Party protests to generate a false narrative that the Democrats were violent and dangerous.
