zap 'em up

This is not your average 'zap 'em up' game. The alien craft all have different characteristics, and judging a spaceship's speed as you home in for the kill is something you'll get the hang of only after much experience.

1986, Luke C, Battle Of The Planets (video game review) in Your Sinclair issue 3

Conversation and camaraderie at the foosball table won out over solo, zap-em-up video games in 1994, according to industry experts.

1994, Night Club & Bar, volume 10, page 388:

You can totally be yourself without worrying if your guy is impressed or embarrassed! You don't have to sit through rough war flicks, or shoot 'em up or zap 'em up movies.

2003, Andrea Stephens, Stuff a Girl’s Gotta Know: Little Hints for Big Things in A Teen's Life:

(informal, video games) A shoot 'em up involving energy weapons.

cow-clicker

LL-Q1860 (eng)-Flame, not lame-cow-clicker.wav

Coined by Ian Bogost in response to FarmVille winning an award for "Best New Social/Online Game" at the 2010 Game Developers Choice Awards. The win caused Bogost, a critic of the freemium model used by Zynga, to be struck with the thought: "Games like FarmVille are cow clickers. You click on a cow, and that's all you do." He subsequently developed Cow Clicker, an intentionally simplistic parody game, which itself became a surprise viral hit.

The plan was to offer a much deeper experience than what Farmville and rest of the cow-clickers ever could.

2015, Juho Kuorikoski, Finnish Video Games: A History and Catalog, page 235:

(video games, derogatory) A video game that requires the player to perform repetitive tasks at certain intervals.

The piezoelectric pedestrian tubeways depicted for Shanghai 2121 will provide all-weather pedestrian transportation citywide.

2016, Alan Marshall, Ecotopia 2121: A Vision for Our Future Green Utopia in 100 Cities:

(science fiction) A system of interlinked tubes serving as a transport network.

R+L=J

This is particularly true of the “R+L=J” phenomenon, the theory that Jon Snow is actually the son of Rhaegar Targaryen and Lyanna Stark, which is commonplace on “Westeros.org,” “Tower of the Hand,” and other sites of online fandom.

2015, Andrew Howe, "The Hand of the Artist: Fan Art in the Martinverse", in Mastering the Game of Thrones: Essays on George R.R. Martin's A Song of Ice and Fire (eds. Jes Battis & Susan Johnston), page 250

R+L=J: This is a heavily supported theory that has been referenced in the books.

2015 March, Ford Maddox Brown, “The Hand of the King”, in Starburst Magazine, page 21:

Still, this evidence was strong enough that R+L=J was the default theory for most readers, to the point where some believed that the strongest evidence against it was that it was too obvious.

2017, Rowan Kaiser, 100 Things Game of Thrones Fans Should Know & Do Before They Die, page 102

(fandom slang) The theory that the character Jon Snow, initially presented in A Song of Ice and Fire/Game of Thrones as the bastard son of Ned Stark by an unknown woman, is actually a secret child born of the union of Rhaegar Targaryen and Lyanna Stark.

Korrasami

Not only did the creators openly confirm that the ending was intended — and Korrasami shippers aren't just reading too much between the lines — a ton of artwork has been created and sold to benefit LGBTQ suicide prevention.

2015, Nick Havey, "Bisexual stereotypes need to go bi bi bi", The Daily Wildcat (Arizona University), Volume 108, Issue 119, 25 March 2015, page 4

The redeeming feature of Korrasami (as the pairing has become known among fans) is that the show's producers very clearly stated that both characters are bisexual and definitely in a relationship.

2018, Kate Harrad, editor, Claiming the B in LGBT: Illuminating the Bisexual Narrative, unnumbered page:

While the “Korrasami” pairing was confirmed at the ending, fans desired to see more and engaged in slash activities to portray the relationship.

2018, Nicolle Lamerichs, “When Production Is Over: Creating Narrative Closure in Fan Edits”, in Rebecca Williams, editor, Everybody Hurts: Transitions, Endings, and Resurrections in Fan Cultures, page 147:

transcosmic

That shriek, and Noyes’s still-unbroken snore, are the last sounds I ever heard in that morbidity-choked farmhouse beneath the black-wooded crest of haunted mountain—that focus of transcosmic horror amidst the lonely green hills and curse-muttering brooks of a spectral rustic land.

1931, H. P. Lovecraft, chapter 8, in The Whisperer in Darkness:

The lamps overhead were beginning to dim; in a few minutes, the dayshields would slide back, revealing the transparent canopy and allowing the remote suns to peer in—dispassionate observers hidden behind the veils of distance.

Caleb continued to hold his gaze until the familiar grating of the dayshields lowering diverted his attention back over to the terrace doors.

The shelter of the day-shield moved across the heavens; the wise Lord had covered over the path of the sun with a sail in such a way that men dwelling on earth could not detect the mast-ropes, […]

electro swing

A music genre combining vintage or modern swing and jazz influences with house music and hip-hop.


In fact, I think one of the main reasons people write and read Treksmut (tm), is that the show very rarely shows these extremely attractive and appealing characters in romantic situations or settings, except for one-episode flings, which are usually conveniently forgotten by the next show, although this is refreshingly rare on DS9 and Voyager.

1997 May 5, Joanne Collins, “Re: TrekSmut, PWPs and Emotional Subtexts (Long and involved)”, in alt.startrek.creative (Usenet):

I've had hardcore Fivers point to both Jadzia Dax AND Kira as ripoffs of Ivanova (they can't decide which, I suppose) despite the fact that both premiered on DS9 first, and JMS didn't get rid of Ivanova until AFTER The Gathering, which showed when DS9 first came around.

menk

Borrowed from Mansi (compare Northern Mansi менкв (menkv)).

This figure is called menk in Ob-Ugrian folklore and ritual.

1996, Anthropology & Archeology of Eurasia, page 79:

Although doors were jammed shut, the menk burst in with huge birch masks covered with hair made of hay.

1999, Marjorie Mandelstam Balzer, The Tenacity of Ethnicity: A Siberian Saga in Global Perspective:

A new documentary, “Russian Yeti: The Killer Lives” airing June 1 on the Discovery Channel explores the remote possibility that a “menk” — the Russian^([sic – meaning Mansi]) word for Yeti — may have been responsible.

2014, “Mysterious Deaths Of College Students Blamed On ‘Russian Yeti’”, in Huffington Post:

(Russia, cryptozoology, folklore) An animal described by the Mansi as a "forest giant", with anatomical features similar to a yeti, said to live in the area of Khantia-Mansia, Russia.

hyperfield

It would take a phenomenally advanced technology to create that; but then, as we've all suddenly been granted superhuman powers, quantum hyperfield theory is the least of our problems.

2002 -, Peter F. Hamilton -, Misspent Youth:

The hyperfield itself could not be moved and remained there on the lava field suspended in the suds of the continuum at the exact point where the arc had entered the inertial frame of the Earth. Unless the titanohematite brain returned to that precise point where the connectionto 5-space waited, the hyperfield would weaken and in a few days smear away in the expansion of the universe.

2014, A.A. Attanasio, Arc of the Dream: Radix Tetrad, →ISBN:

The land was originally seeded for Prima Matra by those we call the 'Timewalkers' in conjunction with High Devas mythologically depicted as Unicorns. When the implosion occurred, the 'seed' material was heated, not only to very high levels, but in a contained hyperfield, which is created by two or more dimensions touching.

darkside

en-noun

darkside (countable and uncountable, plural darksides)

National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration

From dark + side. Sense 2.1 (“side that is evil”) was popularized by the film Star Wars (1977; later retitled Star Wars: Episode IV – A New Hope) where the term was used to describe the aspect of a metaphysical power called the Force which could be used to act aggressively and perpetrate evil.

The label closely observed the shifts in techno during the 90s, being a staple source of ‘darkside’ hardcore in 1992.

1994, “Reinforced Records”, in Colin Larkin, editor, The Guinness Who’s Who of Rap, Dance & Techno, Enfield, Middlesex [London]: Guinness Publishing, →ISBN, page 304, column 1:

1993 was the year that hardcore began to get more varied with different styles being made. One style known as "darkness" or "darkside" used less pianos and more darker sounding chords.

2003 May 6, Alex Nikolaenko Jr., “What is a Jungle?”, in fido7.ru.music.drum-bass (Usenet):

After some atonal washes and twitchy breakbeats, the track lurched to a sudden halt and – in a moment that still takes my breath away when I listen to it now – a brief snatch of the spidery, abstract electronics instantly recognisable from the Japan record leapt into the chasm, before being immediately consumed by viscous bass ooze and the synthetic screeches that were the sonic signatures of darkside Jungle.

2007 December, Mark Fisher, “Epiphanies”, in The Wire, number 286, London: The Wire Magazine, →ISSN, →OCLC, archived from the original on 2021-05-17, page 106, columns 1–2:

(uncountable, music) A style of electronic music, being a form of hardcore characterized by discordant sounds.

chap-hop

Never wear plimsolls if not doing sport
Unless you're a chap-hop superstar sort

2010, Mr.B The Gentleman Rhymer (lyrics and music), “Hail the Chap”, in I Say!, performed by Mr.B The Gentleman Rhymer:

Any style of music can become steampunk if the story is right. Thus the rise of a seemingly incongruous pairing: steampunk rap, or chap-hop.

2013, Julie Anne Taddeo, Cynthia J. Miller, Steaming into a Victorian Future, page 90:

[…] the compliment has now been returned, with the rise of a style known as chap-hop, in which people in tweeds such as Mr B the Gentleman Rhymer freestyle over a banjulele accompaniment barbed songs of political comment such as 'They Don't Allow Rappers in the Bullingdon' (2012).

2016, Max Décharné, Vulgar Tongues: An Alternative History of English Slang:

(music) A parodic musical genre that blends elements of hip-hop with steampunk and traditional English stereotypes.


lolicore

From loli + -core.
Last.fm claims it was coined by Loli Ripe in 2006 and their RYM artist profile says they were an anonymous 4chan poster - which doesn't seem unrealistic as the place of its origin, at least as far as the more western scene (which seems to be where the term "lolicore" came from).

(music) A subgenre of breakcore that is characterised by heavily distorted and pitch-shifted samples, typically taken from anime, and often inspired by Japanese otaku culture.


robotess

(science fiction, dated) A robot designated female; a gynoid.


red piller

The so-called "red pillers" believe that society favors women over men, disenfranchising them and leaving them subject to laws and societal rules they feel are unjust to their gender.

2015 June 16, Trijcomm, “Men's rights fanatics defend Iowa mall shooter fired for sexual harassment: It's 'hard to blame him'”, in rec.sport.pro-wrestling (Usenet):

The red pill – while hinting that Simpson might become Nuke in the Marvel universe – seems in this context to function also as an obvious reference to “red pillers”, men’s rights activists who see themselves as proud anti-feminists interested in dominance, traditional gender roles, and the subjugation of women, whose flaws make that subjugation necessary.

2015 November 27, Lili Loofbourow, “Jessica Jones: shattering exploration of rape, addiction and control”, in The Guardian:

Instead "red pillers" believe in a shared delusional system in which "Feminazis" and "Social Justice Warriors" have taken over the world.

2015 December 30, Damian Walter, “Geek male identity has been reduced to Kylo Ren thrashing a computer with his sword - this needs to change”, in The Independent:

Its members often refer to themselves as “red pillers,” a reference to the Matrix scene in which Keanu Reeve’s character has the choice between taking a blue pill that will keep him in a fantasy world or a red pill that will thrust him into reality.

2016 December 26, Angelina Chapin, “Chapin: Why it’s impossible to reason with the alt-right”, in Ottawa Citizen:

Those requirements are apparently daunting to “red pillers.”

2017 April 30, Sarah Palermo, “My Turn: In defense of the f-word – how feminism aims to benefit everyone”, in Concord Monitor:

(Internet slang) One who believes that society is gynocentric.

My accent may be Brooklyn, not the BBC, pal, but I still got a brain in my head. We've been bodyjacked. Some kind of mind-switch—yours to our bodies, ours ta yours. No offense but this ain't exactly the first time we've been cut loose in that particular neighborhood.

1998 November 14, Chris Claremont, “The First The Final? Fire!”, in Fantastic Four, volume 3, number 11, page 17:

This sounds like a spinoff of "The Boys From Brazil"—until about page 70, when D.T. reveals that he's actually a devil who'd bodyjacked an SS officer.

2007 January 15, “The Devil Wears Swastikas”, in Newsweek, page 66:

I'm not a big fan, however, of the daleks stealing the Cyberman's bodyjacking schtick, and I thought the hybrid looked embarrassingly silly.

2007 April 22, Scott Bennie, “Re: Daleks In Manhattan”, in rec.arts.drwho (Usenet), retrieved 2017-03-31, message-ID <1177302553.825978.79940@n59g2000hsh.googlegroups.com>:

Then I did something that astonished both of us: I took control of our body. […] What are you doing? demanded Seymour. Where are you going? This is my body. Give it back! […] I've been bodyjacked! accused Seymour.

2014, Bruce Coville, Aliens Stole My Body, →ISBN, page 24:

(science fiction) To forcibly seize control of someone's body, sometimes by replacing or exchanging minds.


teep

He was conscious that the Directorate's teep Corps was close by; he didn't particularly want his intimate thoughts in the hands of eighty bored telepaths.

What are you doing, bringing a teep here when we're ready to move?

1997 June 9, Straczynski, Joseph Michael, “The Face of the Enemy”, in Babylon 5, season 4, episode 17, spoken by Number One (Marjorie Monaghan):

She didn't need to be a teep to know what he was thinking.

2011, Nate Kenyon, StarCraft: Ghost—Spectres, →ISBN, page 16:

Fænomenet hamskifte har også dette lovløse aspekt. Det er en bogstavelig forvandling til ulv. Hamskifte skal ikke forveksles med varulve, som vi kender fra middelalderens overtro eller fra nutidens popkultur.

2015, Niels Hein, Ulv!: Dyret - myten - fremtiden, Gyldendal A/S, →ISBN:

The phenomenon of shape-shifting also has this lawless aspect. It is a literal transformation into wolf. Shape-shifting should not be confused for werewolves, which we know from Medieval superstition or from present-day pop culture.

Jeg har nævnt, at sejd anvendes i forbindelse med kampene i Gǫngu-Hrólfs saga. Heller ikke synskhed endsige evnen til hamskifte er forbeholdt guder.

2011, Annette Lassen, Odin på kristent pergament, Museum Tusculanum Press, →ISBN, page 247:

I have mentioned that seiðr [a kind of magic] is used in connection to the fight scenes in the saga of Gǫngu-Hrólf. Nor is psychicness, let alone the ability of shape-shifting preserved for the gods.

From the medieval European practice of genuflecting to show respect for a superior. Popularized by its use on the television series Game of Thrones (2011-2019).

The timid among them declared that he would burn the houses and hang all that had bent the knee to King Louis.

1905, Max Pemberton, The Hundred Days, page 137:

The Earls have power over their lands and people, but must bend the knee to the King and serve as his vassals, just as their own vassals bend the knee to them, and serve them.

Joffrey, Renly, Robb Stark: they're all thieves. They'll bend the knee or I'll destroy them.

2012, David Benioff, D. B. Weiss, “The North Remembers”, in Game of Thrones, season 2, episode 1, spoken by Stannis Baratheon (Stephen Dillane):
