n. 1. The personal name most frequently used as a
metasyntactic variable (see foo). Allegedly popular because
it's easy for a non-touch-typist to type on a standard QWERTY
keyboard. Unlike J. Random Hacker} or 'J. Random Loser',
this name has no positive or negative loading (but see Mbogo, Dr. Fred).
2. An acronym for 'Flipping Ridiculous Electronic
Device'; other F-verbs may be substituted for 'flipping'.
