ROM - what is it?

ROM stands for roasted over email. I hope to popularize the phrase, in the hope it will be used. SO USE IT. Just kidding, you don't have to. Anyway, ROM is typically used in a setting where you break the silence in an email chain, and someone proceeds to then roast you with a reply coming after you closed what you were using to view email. Is very annoying, and almost always happens on the dot, or a few minutes after your stop viewing email. It is also usually something you don't even find offensive or a roast, but the other people on the email chain think it is funny or acknowledge it as a roast. To be used in the form ROMed.

"Well, this email chain is pretty dead." - Person A, 21:39
"your mom is pretty dead" - Person B, 21:52
"oh roasted" - Person C, 21:56
"LOL you just got burned to a crisp" - Person D, 22:02
"thanx ill be here all night" - Person B, 22:09
"Kill me now. I just got ROMed." - Person A, 22:13
Person A just got ROMed by Person B, and Persons C and D acknowledged it.

Read Only Memory

Like a CD with a game on it (that you've purchased in a shop)... You can only read it, not write on it.

ROM - slang

Read Only Memory derivative. Office speak (IT slang) for people who will never "get it". Like a ROM chip you can't write to, they cannot have new thoughts, they only spew back what has been programmed into them. Unable to write to their brain.

Bob: I need more memory, but I can't afford a hard drive right now so I am just gonna download a bunch of my files to a CD.

Jeff: He is such a ROM.

ROM

Literally: Read Only Memory.
ROMs are games that you can use on downloaded emulators. These games are usually licensed. A lot of good ROMs (unpopular games, games exclusively released in Japan) can be quite hard to find, knowing how most sites give you a ton of bullshit and forced voting, but no ROMs. Emulation and ROMs are the only way I have access to great Japanese SNES games such as Super Wrestle Angels, YuuYuu Hakusho Tokubetuhen, Sanrio World Smash Ball!, and Super Puyo Puyo 2 Remix.

I opened my Snes9x, opened the Super Wrestle Angels ROM, and began to play.
