Young lady, I am right on the verge of taking back what I said about vidders not being all cooler-than-thou and in-crowdy and You Are Not One of Us, because this is the second time TONIGHT that one of you has used a word I don't know.
And, okay, granted, I'm verbally stodgy. I mean, I once called someone a lummox. Over IM. The whole room collapsed laughing at me, but I still think it's a perfectly good word.
But, but, but - even if I'm comfortable in my stodginess, I still want to understand what other people are saying! So, okay, I give. What does "horshak" mean? I'd guess it had something to do with the phonetic components of the word, but - I'm trying to picture you, like, doing a dance called the Whore Shack (Like a Love Shack, but you pay for it? Maybe?) and it's not working out very well; all I've been able to come up with is an image of a woman in a spangly red cocktail dress that shows off her cleavage, and she flatly refuses to do any dancing in those shoes.
And I tried getting Google to define it, but it didn't know, either.
So help a girl with an impoverished lexicon out? Please?
(And, hey, does that mean you want me to link to your vid page or memories or tag next to your name on the list of Recs Meat? Because that would be excellent. One stop shopping!)
