Interesting Terminology to Describe Netflix Customer Behaviors
The Big Noob has put together a list of terms to describe various Netflix customer behaviors:
Notflixing - the act of Netflixing a movie which sits on your coffee table for at least a week (if not much, much longer) and you send it back without watching it. (coined by Bryan Bedell)Queuemongering - the act of compulsively adding movies to your Netflix queue without any intention of actually watching it; subsequently, said film hovers around the bottom of your queue, pushing the update queue button that much farther down the page.
Burnflixing - receive movie, open package, place dvd in Macbook superdrive, burn, remove dvd, place back in package, send back to Netflix. Repeat.

Queuemongering was probably created by someone who can't move, one of those people with a broken spine.

How about NoMacFlixBitching - the common act of Mac users getting pissy about the instant viewing movies not playing on their Macs...
