dithyrambic \dith-uh-RAM-bik\, adjective:
  1. Wildly enthusiastic.
  2. Wildly irregular in form.
  3. Of, pertaining to, or of the nature of a dithyramb.
Dithyrambic is ultimately from dithyrambos, a word of unknown origin but associated with Greek, meaning "a wild choric hymn, originally in honor of Dionysus."
 
Internet Coma
  • When you are sitting on your couch, feet up on the coffee table, laptop on your lap. 4-10 hours later you are in an entirely prone position with your legs off the edge of the coffee table and your head on the seat cushion. You become completely unresponsive to your surroundings.
  • Loss of peripheral vision, amnesia, severely reduced motor function ability, and drooling with one eye closed are common symptoms.
I got online this morning to check my email and mess around on facebook for a bit. Next thing I know it's 7pm, my legs are totally numb, and I have this nasty trail of dried drool down my chin. That internet coma completely ruined my day!

Amazonukkah
  • When Christmas really lasts 8 days because the presents take longer to deliver from Amazon.com than anticipated by the purchaser. This is often caused by the reckless use of Super Saver Shipping on items which were bought on Christmas Eve. As a result, the presents are received in small amounts each day over an 8 day period, similar to Hanukkah.
Kid 1: Did you get everything you wanted for Christmas?
Kid 2: I dunno, we're celebrating Amazonukkah this year. My parents are real procrastinators. FML
