Office Terminology Explained

Lately I have realized that the talk around the office would almost appear as if encrypted to the unstrained ear. I wanted to take a little time to explain some of the words.

Gross:
Dictionary: Offensive; disgusting
Office: used to describe a geek form of creativity

Disgusting:
Dictionary: To excite nausea or loathing in; sicken
Office: used to describe a geek form of unprecedented creativity

Boughetto:
Dictionary: N/A
Office: a mixture of boughy(French term for rich, fancy, etc) and ghetto(urban term for opposite of boughy) EX. Authenticating a user by passing credentials to a webpage and then searching for the text “You have successfully logged in” on an authentication page instead of checking it against an encrypted password file is boughetto.

Huge:
Dictionary: Of exceedingly great size, extent, or quantity
Office: Used to describe a major geek breakthrough. When used properly it is pronounced more like Hewge!

Hu Huuu:
Dictionary: ???
Office: Vocal Yelp to relay to others that a time of celebration is at hand in regards to a major geek breakthrough. This is performed by the individual experiencing the breakthrough screaming “Can I get A” and a co-worker is responsible for yelping “Hu HUUUU”. Leaving someone hanging on a Hu HUUU is punishable by mandatory use of IE for a week (New Policy).

Nuts:
Dictionary: An indehiscent, hard-shelled, one-loculated, one-seeded fruit, such as an acorn or hazelnut
Office: Used to praise geek efforts, but it really means I don’t have time to think about it right now NEXT!

Jim McPete(Totty I may have the spelling wrong):
Dictionary: Some Dude???
Office: A glorious use of the up yours signal. Ex. Man, you should give that jerk the Jim McPete!

I know I have to be leaving something out. Is there anything else guys??

I got a bone to pick!

As you all know, many Americans have experience disaster due to hurricane Katrina and Rita. I am very happy to see many people lending a helping hand. However, I am somewhat disappointed in the reaction I have seen in many Christians (or at least they call themselves one). I have heard them say that this is God’s punishment on a sinful society or maybe it will teach them a lesson. My question is, maybe the hurricane victims are not the ones being tested here. Maybe God is testing Christians to see if they will get off their judgmental butts long enough to lend a helping hand in the name of the Lord. It’s just a thought.
