Slang Gang Word of the Day
December 1: airplane mode
When someone cuts themselves off from the world by not logging on to Facebook or checking their cell phones. Usually occurs after a breakup or a rough work week.
Derived from the cell phone setting of the same name in which incoming messages or phone calls cannot be received.
"Dan won't answer your calls. He's in airplane mode."
"Sarah went into airplane mode for three days after Charlie dumped her."
**Is it just me or is everyone kind of in airplane mode in the blogosphere and FB world? I totally relate**

Yes. It's cuz we are all getting out our stupid Christmas crap and our kids are bugging us to do stuff with them. Not to mention Christmas cards and neighbor gifts and shopping. Oh hell, I better go, I have so much to do.
I think facebook has put everyone on thier own type of airplane mode. the quirks are worse then the perks.
I wish my home phone had an airplane mode. I'd leave it there for good.
I am, in fact, going into airplane mode after the phone call I just received. Excellent word.
no, it's not just you. seems like lotsa my friends are in airplane mode...
The few people I wish would go into airplane mode on my facebook never will. They drive me batass crazy!
yes...but I'm getting 100 things done too..which i could not do on an airplane...and I'm not heading to any vacation destination...so yes..airplane mode...without the perks! ;)
