favicon wall 

The point at which the number of tabs open in your browser results in the small tab icon (favicon) disappearing.

As in: 'hitting the favicon wall'

The result being that you are no longer able to identify which tab is which, and must therefore either go though them one by one, or start closing tabs in order to (once again) see each tab's favicon, so that you can easily identify the content of each tab.
- "Damn, I just opened my 30th tab and hit the favicon wall. Now i don't know which tab has that funny Reddit pic."

The Japanese name of the Nintendo Entertainment system (NES). It might also be known as the "Nintendo Family Computer". It's an 8-bit console that played cartridge-style games. You can easily tell the difference from the US and JP version by its cosmetics; US had gray/black, JP had red/white/gold.
Wow, you're playing the NES? In 2005? You're totally old-school.

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.
