set of ovaries

Something you tell a woman who's acting like a little bitch to strap on a set of, since she probably wouldn't want a set of balls too much. Unless she's a transboi, but that's getting a little too far into it.

I dunno, it just didn't seem right to tell her to "man up", so I told her to strap on a set of ovaries and deal with it like a real woman.

little bitch

Someone who's whiny, petty, and passive-aggressive and won't stand up for him/herself when shit's going down, but will be perfectly happy to stab you in the back when you least expect it. Very distinct from a regular bitch.

No, I don't think you're a little bitch because you're a girl. I think you're a little bitch because you're a sniveling rat who I can't trust with a weather report, never mind something important.

TI-83

A device created by Texas Instruments primarily as a productivity sink for math students. Has long since been replaced by models capable of creating even more distraction (like the TI-84 Plus).

It is true that I would never have gotten through college calculus without my TI-83, but seriously -- what did my professor think I was doing with it out in the middle of friggin' July with all the other summer school tards?

Blu-Ray

The very definition of a mixed blessing. On the one hand, 25GB of data storage and the ability to record four hours of high definition video, all on a disc the same size as a DVD or CD. On the other hand, DRMed to the teeth and boobytrapped to boot.

You don't think $750 for a Blu-Ray drive is too much, do you? I got some movies to make.

ladies who lunch

Rich middle-aged women with no jobs or other meaningful way to occupy their time, who descend on upscale cafes around lunchtime to hang out with each other more because they have nothing better to do than because they like the company. Generally despised by cafe workers.

I don't know why Ina Garten has this "ladies who lunch" persona -- you know she busts her ass when she goes to work.

daddy shopping

Dating when pregnant in hopes of finding a guy who will help you raise your kid after the loser who impregnated you got kicked to the curb. Not exactly wrong, but definitely asking for a lot of frustration.

I liked her, but I was afraid she was daddy shopping. I just couldn't deal with that.

reboot

1. To restart a computer when it's acting like a little bitch. Common on old Mac and Windows systems, not so common on old Linux boxes, rare on modern computers.

2. To restart a movie, comic, TV, or book franchise in hopes that it won't jump the shark again. Sometimes works spectacularly (Battlestar Galactica). Sometimes falls flat on its face.

1. "If there's an error, we have this routine called panic, and when it is called, the machine crashes, and you holler down the hall, 'Hey, reboot it.'" --Dennis Ritchie

2. I was contemplating the idea of a Knight Rider reboot the other day. Would be interesting, definitely, but would it really be Knight Rider without the Hoff?
