Qwasted adj.
Extremely intoxicated by alcohol. Formed by an unknown word formation process.
[Prefix q (no meaning on its own; used to enhance the original word) + wasted (extremely drunk)]
"Dude, Gary was totally qwasted the other night." -Sid freshman, on Thu Sep 1, 2005
Pronounced “kway-stid.” Lots of vocabulary exists to describe various drunken states, all of which may connote degree with more or less agreement within a community, but without any certain hierarchy; this word has a more clearly superlative meaning because it explicitly exceeds another state. And the formative process, while nonsensical, is funny, innovative, and ultimately successful in transmitting meaning, I think: he wasn't just wasted - he was QWASTED.
----------------
Qwerty adj.
A person typically devoting much time to computer entertainment; a person typically described as 'geeky'. Formed by zero derivation.
['qwerty' zero derived/metaphor from the first six letters of the upper row on a standard keyboard]
"That is one qwerty kid." -High School Friend, on Tue Nov 30, 1999
This was a word spawned out of metaphor and zero derivation of a keyboard. It is used to describe a person who is typically socially inept becaue of a lot of time spent on coumpters and other similar devices. It is typically male in cantext and has a negative undertone which is used to disenchant the audiance of the described person.
