Should I Know All This?
As a Gen Y-er, I guess I'm supposed to know all of this already...
Bacn: impersonal e-mails (as annoying as spam) that you have chosen to receive, such as alerts and newsletters.
Bershon: that angry/bored/too-cool-to-care look that 12- to 18-year-olds sport in every family photo.
Compunicate: to chat with a co-worker when you are in the same room using Instant Messenger instead of speaking to them in person.
Cougar: Term that a younger man might use to describe an older female companion or attractive older woman.
Defriend: to remove somebody from your established list of contacts, considered the ultimate snub on a social network.
Googleganger: A person who shares your name. You find your googleganger by self-googling.
Lifestreaming: posting an online record of a person's daily activities, such as blogs.
Meatspace: referring to real life or the physical world and conceived as the opposite of cyberspace or virtual reality.
Moofer: derived from the acronym for "mobile out of office." Someone who abandons their workplace between meetings, taking laptop and Blackberry to the local Starbucks or anyplace else where they can escape the interruption of talkative co-workers.
Mouse potato: Someone who spends all their time on the computer surfing the net or playing games. Similar to couch potato.
Passion bucket: a metaphor for a job or endeavor that can fulfill one's sense of mission and ambition.
Peachfuzz billionaires: when someone launches their first startup in middle school and ends up a budding teeny mogul on the cover of a magazine.
Porntastic: something great, but slightly edgy and racy.
Palm Beach niece: Term that an older man might use to introduce or describe a much younger female companion.
