weenie
n. 1. [on BBSes] Any of a species of luser resembling a less amusing version
of B1FF that infests many BBS systems. The typical weenie is a teenage boy
with poor social skills travelling under a grandiose handle derived from
fantasy or heavy-metal rock lyrics. Among sysops, the weenie problem refers
to the marginally literate and profanity-laden flamage weenies tend to spew
all over a newly-discovered BBS. Compare spod , geek , terminal junkie ,
warez d00dz. 2. [among hackers] When used with a qualifier (for example, as
in Unix weenie , VMS weenie, IBM weenie) this can be either an insult or a
term of praise, depending on context, tone of voice, and whether or not it
is applied by a person who considers him or herself to be the same sort of
weenie. Implies that the weenie has put a major investment of time, effort,
and concentration into the area indicated; whether this is good or bad
depends on the hearer's judgment of how the speaker feels about that area.
