The feeling you get after loads of hours on LAN parties. You feel cold even though you are sweating and hot. This is most likely caused by either all the bad food you've eaten, all the energy drinks or just staying up for a while.
After 24 hours of LAN'ing:
John: Damn, maybe I've caught the flu! I'm feeling so cold even though I'm hot and sweating.
Peter: Mate, you've got the LAN-cold.

Han Solo shot first.
Who shot first?" is a phrase used by Star Wars fans to refer to a controversial change made to a scene in Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope. In the original theatrical version of the film, Solo shoots Greedo under the table and Greedo dies without firing a shot. The scene was modified for the 1997 re-release to feature Han using his weapon in retaliation after Greedo fires at him; the latter rather implausibly missing Han at point-blank range (<2 meters away). Thus, the phrase "Who shot first?" is a retort to director George Lucas' explicit cinematographic assertion that "Greedo shot first.
