go Pete Townshend on

To break something, very often a guitar. Taken from the guitar-smashing habit of Pete Townshend, lead guitarist for one of the greatest rock bands of all time, The Who.
Don't you dare go Pete Townshend on my guitar; I'll go Pete Townshend on your ass if you do!

alt f4

Press "Alt-F4" in World of Warcraft to make your mage cast a vanishing spell.
Alt F4 is a vanishing spell! It really works! Try it; it really makes things disappear. I shit you not.

game rape

Can also mean the phenomenon involving a marginally playable game whose physics and controls are so fundamentally broken that it rapes anybody who tries to play it. Sonic The Hedgehog 2006 comes to mind.
Kudos to Pokecapn, Illuminatus Vespucci, Kung Fu Jesus, Medibot, and Kaz, for braving over twenty hours of game rape to bring us all a Let's Play of Sonic 2006, the game that decides for itself whether or not you get to beat it.

manual transmission

The way that driving has always been done. In order to drive in manual, you control a clutch and a gearshift in addition to gas and brakes. Manual transmissions give you much more information about your car such as its feel, its power, its engine to gear ratios, etc.

Newcomers to manual transmissions often stall out and get frustrated by the addition of extra controls. But if you practice at it a lot, it becomes delightfully challenging, you will feel out of place in an automatic by comparison, and the feeling you get when you drive circles (or donuts) around your friends is totally worth it.
I've been driving in manual transmission for so long, automatic just didn't feel the same. My hand kept reaching for a stick that wasn't there, and I almost hit the emergency brake thinking it was the clutch. I hope automakers keep offering stick-shift models!

American

Screwed before they even try to start conversation with someone else from another country because of all of the hatred; not even provided a chance to debunk the stereotypes.
American visitor: "Excuse me, sir?"

British native: "Shut up, you fat, stupid American!! Nobody cares; World War II ended over sixty years ago!!!"

American visitor: "I was going to ask you the time... T_T"

redneck

Despite conventional intuition, rednecks are incredibly inventive when it comes to engineering.
I've seen a redneck-built jacuzzi constructed from a metal tub, a scaffolding frame, and a fire pit. It may not look very glamorous, but hell, it works, doesn't it?

al capwned

Sent on a dirt nap; outfitted with cement shoes; deep-sixed. Pwned in a very gangster-esque manner.
Johnny the Rat thought he could get away from the mob, but Vito caught up to him, and Johnny got Al Capwned!
