strunz

(n.) From the Italian "strunzo," meaning "piece of shit." A fairly common Italian insult for someone or something worthless.
Get a load of this strunz out here, sleepin' on the job!

My lawnmower's a fuckin' strunz. It won't start for nothin'.

vague date

A phrase coined by Teresa Strasser of the Adam Carolla Show on Free FM which refers to social outings that would normally be considered dates, but where one of the two people involved seems completely oblivious to the concept of dating. This is generally characterized by a lack of interest in conversation or flirting, an aimless absence of direction or goals for the evening, and possibly an uncomfortable revelation that the event was never intended to be date. This can be blamed on the modern tendency for self-absorption and a narcissistic belief that you shouldn't have to put forth any effort to be interesting or even pleasant.
I ended up going on a vague date with Jim. We went and saw a stupid buddy comedy and ate at Starbucks, but he split when he got a phone call from a friend to play basketball.

I don't even know if the date I was on with Nancy was a date, because she kept talking to me about how great it was to be single. I think it was some weird vague date.

both kinds of gay

A phrase uttered by Teresa Strasser on "the Adam Carolla Show" after she had quietly criticized Adam Carolla's use of the word "gay" to mean "lame" rather than "homosexual" during the bit "the Gayest Songs of All Time." Immediately afterward, Culture Club's "Karma Chameleon" was played, to which Teresa uttered, "That's both kinds of gay," meaning it was both lame and homosexual in content. Amusingly, the original meaning of gay, "happy," does not enter into the phrase.
Tony got drunk and told you he wanted to give you a bj? Dude, that's both kinds of gay.

Would it be both kinds of gay if a girl grabbed another girl's boobs and asked if they were fake, or just one? And which one?

daligdig

Originally a surname from the Phillipines (most notably Eustaquio Daligdig, a Filipino hero who was said to be invulnerable to bullets and possessed the ability to fly, making him the Filipino Superman), the word's alliteration is so fun to say aloud that is occasionally used as a replacement for the word delicious, and has become a statement of satisfaction or pleasure, and sometimes just on its own as an exclamation of exuberance.
That donut is delicious--nay, daligdig.

You bought Guitar Hero II for me? Oh, daligdig!

twink

In tabletop or online RP settings, a twink (often also referred to as a munchkin) is someone who has min-maxed their character to emphasize a single set of game stats rather than creating a well-rounded character. While these characters are most often geared toward combat, there are a variety of twinks, often differentiated by an accompanying title, such as combat twink, TS twink/sex twink, social twink, gear twink, or others.

This seems the most likely origin for the MMORPG version of the term, since tabletop and online RPGs were the precursors to games like World of Warcraft, and the definitions share similarities.
So he put all of his points into Strength and Constitution, and put his lowest into Wisdom and Charisma, huh? Sounds like he's rolling up another combat twink.

Dena is such a total TS twink. I swear, her stats are always geared toward making her character attractive so she can cyber other players.

Damn it, there are too many social twinks on this game. The second I think I'm going to have some interesting interaction with someone, they start rolling to forcibly manipulate my character.

scrabula

An invented term for any nonspecific body part when one doesn't know the real name. Generally used to help describe vague illness or discomfort, as a placeholder until the actual name is learned, or in jest. The word was originally used on the cartoon "Muppet Babies" to describe a torture device, but came into usage as a generic anatomical term because it sounds so authentically biological.
Shit, I have a belly ache--I think my scrabula is swollen.

Keith went to the doctor because he fell off of his skateboard and broke his scrabula or some shit.

Person 1: "The New Human Anatomy." Huh. What about that book do you think is "new," man?
Person 2: Maybe it contains the human scrabula this time.

bucho

Bucho was originally a general insult for someone acting like a jerk or idiot, but has become a catch-all term used to indicate cameraderie (see man, dude, buddy, homey). Generally directed toward a masculine person or thing, and may also be construed as "big man" (such as the villain from Desperado).

"Bucho" is apparently used in both Portuguese and Spanish to mean "pig fat," and is a cooking term not unlike "lard," which would make sense for the big man definition of the word, as in Desperado and "Fat Bucho," the large, bald, black 3rd level boss in the original Nintendo game Kung Fu.
What's up, bucho?

Sorry about that, bucho. I didn't mean to upset you.
