monkey
Monkey's near rhyming slang for skunk: strong marijuana buds.
Good monkey has little crystals of pollen falling from it. The pollen sticks to plastic, so you shouldn't really store it in baggies.

higher state of consciousness
Classic 80s dance anthem by Josh Wink. Re-released and remixed so very many times, and it always sounds new.
Insane treble keeps lifting, lifting, lifting you straight through the roof. You really have to hear this on a nice stereo to get the totally massive brain melting euphoric sort of thing.

IBM
1. International Business Machines
2. Big Blue
The creators of the BIOS system most computers are based around. Unfortunately arrogant enough to publish their BIOS code in a context akin to saying, "Look, this is how it's done. If you do it in a similar way we'll know where you got it from."
Phoenix Technologies where the first to successfully cheat the challenge; one team of scientists simply worked directly on the IBM BIOS and made an exhaustive table of commands and responses, another team who had no knowledge of IBMs existing code were given the table to write a new BIOS.
This is how IBM lost their monopoly on PC design, how the first buyers of Phoenix BIOS, Compaq placed themselves on the market, and generally a nice example of David and Goliath.

The IBM BIOS standard becoming ripped off has both advanced compatibility and held back the market at once, but at least it's basically open-source.
moof
Use it in the same context as moose, although with the added bonus of sounding acceptable in affection too.
Holy shit, that moof is always pissed.
Ah, poor moof... is there anything you can do without getting hurt?

Tourist
A person who obviously doesn't fit in with a scene. In clubbing, directly addresses people who rarely go to that kind of venue or don't know their etiquette.
It's considered polite to ignore tourists or point them in the right direction.
If you feel like a tourist, you're not making an effort to fit in.

Jam Sandwich
A Uk police car, specifically the kind with an orange strip all the way round the sides. A bit of a misnomer really, but marmalade sandwich just doesn't sound right. Plus these days most police cars are either in high visibilty markings that resemble batenburg cake, or just plain white.
