There was a pit thread (that I can’t find) about posting TLDR as a way of threadshitting in which someone offered “tastes like duck rectum” as an alternate meaning. I find myself using it when I’ve not paid attention to someone’s long boring story.  
I also use pobe sometimes.

“TMI” is one I learned from here. I also say “gotcha ya” all the time.

I use glurge or glurgy whenever something is too manipulatively sweet or sentmental. It could’ve come from somewhere else but I heard it here first.

I use glurge, too. I get all my current pop references from here! It describes the stuff so perfectly, it even sounds like vomit.

I came in here to post about the word glurge.

I also use Google-fu all the time.

[QUOTE=Suse]  
Oh, I also picked up ‘harsh your squee’ here. I love that saying!  
[/QUOTE]

I say that to myself whenever I want to smile; I’m just dying to have a reason to say it to someone else.  
I saw someone called a “fucknuckle” in the pit a while back, and it’s now my favorite profanity.

yet.
