Metrographical 

(adj) A person obsessed with the ability to create stunning, bedazzled graphics and charts. These individuals have a strong compulsion to pretty-up their co-workers reports and documents. These people are often confused for being gay, but are not.
Joe, those stunning visuals in the presentation made me think you were gay, but maybe you're just metrographical.

metaglyph 

1.) A life lesson reduced to a symbol. 2.) A complete collection of such symbols. Throughout life we learn lessons. When we reflect on any one lesson we can create a mental picture of it and reduce it to a symbol.

The theory behind The Metaglyph is to reduce one's life lessons to an ordered collection of symbols for the purpose of clarity.
The lesson: Man who squeeze lemon get sour juice. The lesson here is not to be surprised when things get overly ugly when we press an issue with a nasty person.

The metaglyph might be as simple as a large circle denoting the lemon above a small circle denoting a lemon drop.

petroglyph 

Petroglyph is the only videogame company that totally pwns EA(Electronic Arts). Evil EA bought Westwood in 1998 and started putting their brand on Westwood games, thus removing every single tiny bit of quality from them. Since the Westwood developpers actually care more about the gamer than the money, the majority of them left EA and started this new VG company. They've had a good start with Star Wars: Empire at War and it's only the beginning.
- Dude, EA is so going to conquer the world!
- Not at all, Westwood guys just left them to form PETROGLYPH!
- O RLY? Then there's still hope in life! I'll stop cutting my wrists and covering 3/5 of my face with my hairs! (see emo)
