GITDAWERDOUT: A glossary of terms and phrases we've made up (with some help from our friends)

I have lived with my girlfriend for six years. I can predict what she's about to say by noticing the faintest twitch of her forehead. Still, it often feels like we are separated by a language. Every day we forego entire conversations because telling her why I'm laughing at my phone would require me to explain far too much internet backstory. (e.g., "You see, AJ Cann's tweet was really funny because he's making fun of Shon Carson, who takes all of these selfies in which he is wearing no facial expression or shirt whatsoever.")

We compiled this glossary with people like her in mind -- Gamecock fans who have better things to do than be on Twitter every day.

We'll update this list as new terms enter the lexicon. (And if there's anything else you'd like to see us define, please avail yourself of the comments section.)
