/gronk/ , vt. [popularized by Johnny Hart's comic strip B.C.: but the word
|
|
|
|
apparently predates that] 1. To clear the state of a wedged device and
|
|
|
|
restart it. More severe than to frob (sense 2). 2. [TMRC] To cut, sever,
|
|
|
|
smash, or similarly disable. 3. The sound made by many 3.5-inch diskette
|
|
|
|
drives. In particular, the microfloppies on a Commodore Amiga go grink,
|
|
|
|
gronk.
