We've built a show "GLOSSARY". A book of terms you're only going to hear on our show each morning on Power105.7. Maybe it's something you said on the phone. Maybe it's something from a Travelog. Actually, "Travelog" counts as a term only used here.
What should be in our glossary? If you have something you want to add to it... email us!
tim@power1057.com
"B" - Short for "B_tch." As in "Tim is being a cranky B this morning!"
BACON RULE - If your last name is BACON, and you can kind of prove it, you're allowed to talk about WHATEVER YOU WANT ON OUR SHOW! Seriously. call us! 479-521-1057
BIKE HELMET BABIES - This term describe parents who are over the top protective of their kids. They are so worried about anything bad happening to their children that they really should have bike helmets on their kid at all times. These are also the parents, who when they hear about a parenting tactic they don't agree with, will call social services asap.
BUMBLE BEE MAN - or "drug dealer"... Sonya called during a conversation about "knowing when to leave a party". She told us a story about how a guy wearing a black and yellow shirt she met at a party. He kept telling people he quit playing football at Florida State so he could sell "party favors" full time. Sonya and her friends coined this shady drug dealing fool "Bumblebee Man" and prompltly left. Bumblebee man calls our show from time to time.
HOGCALLS - In order to get the Tim & Jeff family fired up for the next Razorback football game, we prank waffle restaurants in the cities of The Hog's opponents.
"CAZEBO" - Amy called to tell us about a beautiful park in Norwood, OH, perfect for a wedding. Not only did she say the word "beautiful" about 40 times in one minute, she also referenced the "gazebo" as a "C-azebo"...
CULMINATION MOMENT – A moment you realize that everything you’ve accomplished in life has led you up to that exact point in time. Think of all the positive things you’ve done in your life. Graduated from college, gotten married, maybe won some sort of award. Say you break down on the side of 71 because you ran out of gas. You’re a married, award winning, college grad… that’s still stuck on the side of the road because you were dumb enough to run out of gas. That’s your "culmination moment". It’s meant to make you laugh at the stupidest stuff in life.
"DB" – aka D-bag. It stands for "Douche Bag". Most always used to describe a cheesy dude. Meatheads. Guys with frosted tips. Guys who re-gift wedding rings.
EMF - Stands for "Early Morning Funny". Every weekday during the first hour of the show, Jeff posts a picture on Facebook that he thinks is funny. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.
FUR CURIOUS - This is a term for folks who are interested in the "furry" life. What is a "furry"? Here is a defintion of what a furry is. I'm pretty sure that TIM is a secret furry. (Jeff)
FOGPITS - Sometimes Tim wears sleeveless shirts to work. On Tuesday, July 27th, 2010 Jeff swears Tim forgot to wear deodorant wearing said sleeveless shirt. Jeff says the "funk" was rolling across the studio desk. Jeff labelled this funk "Fog"... Thus Tim had the FOGPITS.
**** Tim & Jeff would also like you know, Tim doesn't smell on a regular basis... it was just this one day.****
"Going to my G'ma's horse farm in Alabama" - Tim & Jeff secret code for "going to party in Mexico." Coined by listener LIndsey from Lima.
"Guy from New Hampshire" - This a dude who listens to the show every day via Power1057.com. Hes lives in New Hampshire. He randomly found our show after googling "Top 40." He pretty much emails every day too. Where the hell is New Hampshire? This is apparently him.
"H.A.B" - Hot Air Balloon. Tim & Jeff are the head of the HABRTC or "Hot AIr Balloon Regional Tracking Center" Basically we do this to warn everyone in the case of a slow moving, helium filled balloon attack.
IMMIGRATION STATION - This is a business idea Jeff had that is meant to help immigrants streamline the citizenship process. It will be like an "H&R Block" store, but will feature staff that helps to make becoming legal nice and easy. The jingle will be sung along to School House Rock's "Conjuction Junction" and will go "Immigration Station, what's your na-tion? We'll make you legal for a little do-nation!"
JIMMY GREEN – Jimmy Green is the most famous man in Lawrenceburg, Indiana. This living legend rides his bike around Lburg, shirtless with cowboy boots on. He loves to chill out on his porch and drink with his buddies. Tim & George created a song about him.. "Everyone Knows Jimmy Green".
"MMCMG" – While we worked in Cincinnati, Jeff was refered to "My Mom Calls Me George". When he was a kid he had a sock monkey. The sock monkey was named "George" after Curious George. His mom began calling for both "Georges" around the house. Now, his mom still calls him "George".
MOOBS - Man boobs. Ex - Tim's moobs are kind of cone shaped.
"MY OLD MAN" Theory - There really is no point to this theory. The theory is this, when a woman calls and at any point in the conversation refers to her husband, boyfriend, or hookup as "MY OLD MAN", they are a smoker. This theory has never been wrong.
NERD - noun, one who shows enthusiasm about a specific subject. If you call and passionately talk about how much you love I-540, we may call you an "I-540 nerd". It is not meant to be a negative term. (Ex. Jeff is a Hockey Nerd)
"OMG" – Oh My God!
"PIZZA ALL NIGHT!" - Our summer intern Drew was forced to come into our studio on a daily basis because of his monotone voice and dry wit... well, we'll call it wit for now. Anyway, at the end of the show one day Jeff was explaining that he was going to broadcast live at a pizza place that evening. Jeff asked Drew if he was ready to party at the pizza place with him. Drew, having no clue that he was going to be asked this, out of nowhere says "Pizza all night."
"PO'd" - Pissed off.
PULLING A TIM - Tim is very blunt. He will always tell you what he's thinking, like it or not. He was recently judging a talent show when he told a guy named Max after a musical performance, that he should "stick to your major, accounting." Tim basically destroyed this kid. During his apology to Max, Jeff coined the term "pulling a Tim"... basically meaning whenever you're blunt with someone, you've just "pulled a Tim."
"SHUT THE GATE" – I have to ask Tim, I don’t remember what this means.
SLOOT - Slut.
SUPPER - What Tim calls "dinner". Also, Tim doesn't accept that he is wrong about getting his terms wrong.
"THROW IT IN THE GARDEN" – Get rid of something. Trash it. The story supposedly comes from when Tim’s Dad killed a rat at the house. His mom said "Throw it in the garden".
"TICKLETS" - In the middle of screwing around with people trying to win WWE Smackdown tickets, Tanya called to try and guilt us into giving her some. While using her "wrasslin voice", she accidentally asked for "TICKLETS" instead of "TICKETS." Thus the new term, "ticklets."
TRAVELOG - an edited piece of audio from our adventures around NWA. It's real life radio... baby.
TRAVELOG MACHINE - It's what we call the microphone thingy that we use to record while we're on the streets.
TRUMPETING - verb, to trumpet - to brag. As if you were standing on a mountain with a trumpet, proudly blasting for all to hear. You can call and talk about how awesome your 3 year old is at soccer, but if it gets into official stats… you’re trumpeting.
"Words that should not be used before 7am" - Just like you, it takes Tim & I (Jeff) a little while to warm up. We've realized that there are certain words we shouldn't use before 7am. Basically because our brains and mouths aren't in proper working order yet. Here's the list of words we've stumbled over in the 6am hour;
"Vulnerability"
"Capricorn"
"WTF" – What The F***!?
