Perhaps the most embarrasing words ever to be in existance, used mostly by geeks who enjoy computering and comic book reading. Said (geek) often mutters this word to themselves as he/she knows that it will gain them no (street cred)and may deplete the tiny credit that they already have gained from ditching warhammer club one cold winters because the deleted scene of the latest star wars was on tv . The word is said when something is in good order and working well.
