TiVeto

To stop Tivo from switching the channel and recording a previously scheduled program, so you can continue to watch what's on live TV.

"Hey, do you need it to record this Mythbusters that's starting? I was watching the game."
"Nah, that's ok, you can TiVeto it."

downstater

An Illinois resident who lives in the lower 3/4 of the state - anywhere south of Chicagoland.

"Where are you from?"
"Chicago, what about you?"
"I'm from Dwight."
"Oh, you're a downstater."
"No - Dwight is pretty far north. It's only an hour south of Chicago."
"Hey, if you're farther than Joliet, you're a downstater."

Redd Foxx point

The moment when a guy realizes he's hit the point of no return during sex. Just like Fred Sanford used to say: "It's the big one... You hear that, Elizabeth? I'm comin' to you, I'm comin' home to Georgia."

Last night I brought this girl back to my place for some action... I was hoping to take my time, but early in I hit the Redd Foxx point, so what could I do? Good thing her name was Elizabeth.

beta male

An unremarkable, careful man who avoids risk and confrontation. Beta males lack the physical presence, charisma and confidence of the Alpha male.

Pete knew he was losing the girl he'd just met at the bar to the guy who bought her a drink, but he was too much of a beta male to do anythigng about it.

slingbox

A device that can attach to your Tivo or other digital video recorder, which allows you to access and watch your programs over the Internet. You simply log into your computer and watch whatever streaming video you have recorded on your Tivo.

Thanks to my slingbox, I can watch last night's episode of "24" which my Tivo recorded, even though I'm still on vacation.
