In the Android custom software users community, someone who is addicted to installing (flashing) new ROMs (customised, unofficial Android versions) or mods every few days.
User: 'Dude, when are you releasing the next version?'
Developer: 'Sorry, flashoholics, haven't got time until next week.'
A typical flashaholic might have dozens of them; hardcore flashaholics might have hundreds or (in one documented case) close to 1,500 of the bright little suckers!!!
The word was coined a number of years ago on a BBS about flashlights.
Hey Josh!
Did you hear that Craig is a true flashaholic, with 1,497 flashlights, lasers, and other assorted things that flash, blink, or otherwise emit EM radiation in the range of 380nm to 780nm?
What a kick in the head!!!
A user of the Android mobile operating system that cannot resist "flashing" (installing something to the system partition, usually a different OS entirely) anything flashable they see; someone addicted to flashing.

The use of the word "blue" to refer to sexually explicit content was first recorded in Scotland in 1824. "Blue" meant "lewd" because prostitutes dressed in blue gowns.
French slang, which translated, means "bull's fashion" but basically equates to "hyper trendy" or overly trendy. Used when a person wishes to express distaste at the latest fashion trend/fad, because it seems that everyone has a certain item of clothing or is wearing it. This term is most frequently heard in Paris but is slowly spreading to other parts of France.
1. That Burberry scarf is so fache-couture.
2. That purple American Apparel hoodie is so fache-couture.
A slang term for GLP-1 medications(like Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, etc.), usually referring to their appetite-killing, weight-loss, or “I forgot to eat” effects rather than the medical details.
Usage:
* Often casual, ironic, or meme-y
* Can imply effortless weight loss, suppressed hunger, or being “powered by pharmaceuticals”
Notes:
Not a brand name—just shorthand for the whole GLP-1 wave. Frequently shows up in online jokes, gym talk, and group chats where people pretend they’re *totally* doing it naturally.
“I’m not dieting, I’m just on that glippy.”
“Ever since the glippy hit, food feels optional.”
“That summer body? Yeah, glippy assisted.”
Pajama casual is a term used when working from home and preparing for a video conference. All business above the waist and your pajama pants down below.
We have a Zoom meeting in a few minutes and I’ll probably go pajama casual.
