  • to stellenbosch someone: verb meaning "to relegate someone incompetent to a position of minimal responsibility" - from that fascinating site AWAD. Eventually, the "term came to be applied when someone was reassigned to a position where he could do little harm".  Check out maffick as well

  • keeping up with teen speak  :  terms like yolo (you only live once) and fomo (fear of missing out) are fairly common place these days but recently discovered appaz (apparently), bestie (best friend) and deets (details) - totes fab don't you think?
cheers
