Windows 7 Whopper BK 

Layer upon layer upon layer upon layer upon layer upon layer upon layer of buzzkill. An utter tragedy before your very eyes, one which will have repercussions beyond your high time. A variant of the Whopper BK, which is bad enough in its own right.
So what are you all in for?

Well, we got high as balls, then thought it was a good idea to execute a fake kidnapping of a friend of ours. Everyone thought it was real and we ended up in a standoff with police.

Wow, that's a Whopper BK.

Actually a Windows 7 Whopper BK to be exact.

Windows ME 

The "Mellinium" edition of windows, which was apparently found in Bill Gates' toilet some unknown morning. It is subject to incessant crashing and freezing, and my scanner doesn't work with it, the stupid thing.
If someone IMs me, Windows ME crashes. If I open a webpage, Windows ME crashes. If the phone rings, Windows ME crashes. If a butterfly lands on a flower in the rainforest, Windows ME crashes.

West Midlands slang word for rockers, bikers, greasers etc. In the late 1980s it was used by the UK music press to refer to a specific scene centered around the bands Pop Will Eat Itself and Crazyhead. The term never found favour with readers of 'the inkies' (Sounds, Melody Maker and the still extant NME) and was soon dropped. Now often used in predominantly working-class areas of the midlands and the north to mean someone who listens to rock-derived music and/or dresses in a manner that suggests they affiliate themselves with rock music of some kind.

The Poppies are at no. 17? God, a grebo band in the charts!
They're playing nu-metal now, bloody grebos!
