A facebook user group whose purpose is the encouragement of facebook content and humor revolving around the satirical cowbell metaphor made popular in a Saturday Night Live skit. The SNL classic mocks Blue Oyster Cult members (played by Will Farrell, Chris Kattan, Horatio Sands and Jimmy Fallon) in the recording studio where they are laying down "Don't Fear The Reaper" with record producer, Bruce Dickenson (played by guest host, Christopher Walken) who advises the fellas that they are going to want that cowbell in their sound and the track could use a little more cowbell to an already "cowbell prevalent" song.
A (subliminal) tool used to politely suggest to your long lost pal to add some content to their facebook profile.
1a. Personal preference meets tradition/custom. Literally: “I must go with what I’ve predetermined to be my personal preference for specific situations/circumstances.”
For instance, to be used in reference to what your favorite food item (typically) would be during any specific event or moment. A better way of saying: “You KNOW I gotta go with the MALTballs right now.” Most accurately this is stoner slang; when you're in the convenience store, high with your homies, grab your favorite snack and say "Gotta have my pops/popz/pawps/pawpz."
2a. Casual reinforcement for one's personal preferences; passive self-assertion. It's a marriage between "What can I say?" "You know me," and "Nothing but the best for me"; "What can I say, nothing but the best for me"; similar but not equal to "That's how I roll." Often but not always expressed with palms up, shoulders shrugged.
A sunburn or suntan focused on the left arm. It is caused by the left side of the body being the only half that gets exposed to sunlight while driving. Presumably, it would be located on the right side of the body in countries where they drive on the left side of the road.
British slang for a scientist or technical expert, esp . when the speaker is not certain of the expert’s specific field of study. Not necessarily derogatory, but typically used by persons without a technical background. In the US, the equivalent would be “egghead”, “squint”, or “geek.”
Origin of the word is unknown. Started sometime in World War 2. Given the typical evolution of British slang, could easily have started because what these experts did was confusing or “baffling” to the common person.
When you have to pee in a movie but don’t want to miss anything, and must do the following mental equation: will the amount I have to pee cause enough discomfort to diminish my attention capacity for the remainder of the movie to an extent which is greater than the amount of the movie I would miss by making a mad dash to the restroom.
I saw Satantango last night, wonderful film but by the 5th hour I had to start doing peecalculus.
