Related Words
Word that became very popular on the World of Warcraft forums on April Fool's day 2007. During the course of the day, the Blizzard forums were changed so that each normal poster had blue text and an animated icon, which is normally what Blizzard posters look like. To go along with this, each Blizzard poster was listed as a player, with normal white text, and a troll for an icon, signifying they were forum trolls. The staff posted sporadically all day in threads, trolling. One of the expressions used in most of the one-line replies was "lol wut?" After this, it became very popular on the forums for the next few weeks.

Literally meaning,
"Laugh out loud, what?"
Something you might say when someone says something awkward or something that makes no sense, but is still funny in a certain way. Often used in IMs and forums, this is, of course, a retardation of a phrase.

Frothability 

The measure of an emotional and over zealous consumer in an upwardly charging market, also known as a bull market. It's characterized by rising asset prices, increased investor confidence, and favorable growth in the markets, bro.
The frothability was evident as over-zealous consumers eagerly engaged in bidding wars, driving property prices to unsustainable levels reminiscent of previous speculative bubbles.

Soul digger

A man who dates women with the sole purpose of exploiting their time, energy, and labor while he sucks the joy and happiness from their lives.

pod person 

A person pretending to be something they aren't, or an impostor. This is inferred because of the old alien movies where alien pods appear on earth and the "pod people" dispose of the humans and slowly reproduce the bodies, pretending to be humans.
The pod person was pretending to be my father, but I knew that he was an alien when he acted differently than my father ever would have.
