Further FYI

I've thought of a few more terms you might want to incorporate into your own lives...

1. Squee (noun) Squeeing (verb)
Ever been around a group of teenage girls who are laughing and talking and getting excited over something random? That's squeeing. Adults are capable of squeeing, and so are teenage boys and men, for that matter. Just listen to my dad on Christmas morning as he opens up some new power tool.

2. CRAX (pronunced crack)
This one is complicated, as it can be either good or bad. It's all in the context. (It's also spelled with an X for some unknown reason. And you have to use all capital letters. Actually, I do know the reason, but it's too long and convoluted to explain right now. Just don't let the X throw you off, okay?)

It's roots lie in the drug choice of crackheads everywhere, crack. The stuff so addicting it only takes using it ONE TIME for you to be addicted. (Or so they always told us in school.) Basically it's a term to be used when you are obsessed with something with no inherent value other than you just enjoy it. Conversely, you can also use it when you are obsessed with something with no inherent value other than you just enjoy it, but you can figure out *WHY* to save your life.

See also: My relationship with Twilight.

It can also be used as a term of affection for those who share your obsession. Like I might say to Stacey and Shauna, "Hey you CRAXheads! Are we going to summit when New Moon is released??"

Which brings me to...

3. Summit
A summit is a meet up of friends, usually getting together for a specific purpose. 'Summiting' just sounds better than 'visiting', don't you think??
