WEB-LINGO for NEWBIES
***under construction***
(stalk if you want..)
Okay, I’m new on this thing, too, about lingo’s that I actually see and came across on forum sites and blogs and really had no idea at all at first but as the day progressed, I learned that this web-lingos or internet urban lingos are just slangs to express a blogger’s or surfer’s or even fangirl’s feelings using an alienated word.
Here are some words that I came across with: (will update from time to time)
EPIC
- awesome, kick-ass, or otherwise positive. Can be used to refer to anything but is usually referring to a particular event or action. The most common usages are “epic win” or “epic failure,” and some prefer to type it in all caps. Occasionally people use the phrase “Epic ___” as a stand-alone sentence or phrase, always following a story about something considered Epic.
Ex: Teukie and Yesung’s perf of Ring Ding Dong is an epic win!
EPIC FAIL
- the complete opposite of EPIC. Complete and total failure when success should have been reasonably easy to attain. Similar to fail but even to a larger and pitiful scale.
Ex: A man who commits suicide because he was dumped by a girlfriend is an epic fail.
SPAZZ
- A reaction to something crazy or weird. To flip out at something, yell and scream, usually completely random words.
Ex: I spazz on Yeteuk when I see them do the adorkable moves.
EFFING
- The common replacement for the “F” word to get a point across.
Ex: Teukie’s abs is effing hot!

POSER
