No clue, the only one I have ever heard of before was w00t.
Curiousity got the best of me:
Jeggings are leggings that are styled to look like tight denim jeans.
mankini is the thong type swimsuit Borat wore in the movie.
Some other additions apparently are:
? Sexting: sexual text messages
? Retweet: repeating someone else?s tweet in your own Twitter feed
? Cyberbullying: just like bullying, but online

The basic guideline they use is A) the word does not have an obvious synonym - for instance, there really isn't any other way to say "retweet" or "sexting" as a single word and B) it's entered the general parlance of society. Most people will know what a retweet is, or what sexting is. Mankini is pretty obvious, as is cyberbullying. Jeggings . . . that one is a bit of a stretch, though, I imagine it's a fairly commonly known term in the fashion community.

Is it just me, or did anybody else just feel the slightest tremor of an earthquake in Toronto?

My pick as top (fave) album/CD/whatever for last year (2010) was Eminem's Recovery. 4 months to go but think I've found this year's winner.
Really Bob? I would have never guessed that, the things you learn on twitter about people.

Who are these random people that keep following you on twitter for no reason? I keep getting e-mails that Alexia Altsisi or Martynas Ligeika are now following me. What do they expect to get out of it?

That's like KFC. I get a bucket of chicken about twice a year. Seems like such a great idea at the time, but then ya feel the globs of fat pulsing through your arteries hours afterward...

There truly is nothing like the first piece of chicken from KFC. Then you quickly start regretting it.

I feel that way with most fast food places, it sounds like a good quick meal, but after I feel like crap, the worst is McDonalds, where it starts before I even leave the resteraunt.

I merely drive by a McDonalds and I have to take a dump.
