Commonly Used
an hero

grammatically incorrect poem posted at a myspace memorial for a boy
(Mitchell) who killed himself when he couldn't find his ipod. By extension,
to commit suicide, regardless of how stupid the reason is or is not. By more
extension, doing something stupid, which results in accidentally killing
yourself. Examples: 1."Yasmin hung herself when her mother didn't let her watch big brother; she
is an hero." 2."That's the most worthless idea ever; go become an hero."

cannot be ascertained. Or: In the subject bar of an email when no title is
deemed worthy.

meaning approximately the same thing as the slang form of suck. Most
probably derived from the world of internet gaming.

epilogic dubious disclaimer: "I did it for the lulz".
