RI Lingo
This is the current compendium of RI terms and errata, updated to the moment (and mildly corrected as necessary). Thanks to P Diddy (aka The Viscount) for getting the ball rolling, and to all who added later contributions.

Jasno
Our Intrepid Muse, Jason La Canfora (a nod to his inability to consistently spell his own name, much less anything else)
Jason's editor
The original name Cindy used when she posted on the blog. She wasn't pulling rank so much as retaining some semblance of anonymity. That went out the window over time, and she started posting simply as "Cindy." (If she were still using this name today, she would probably have changedto "Jasons' editor.")
LaVar-ed
A player getting the non-playing silent treatment by the coaching staff
LBM
Little Brother Manning (Eli)
LBP
Little Brother Palmer (Jordan), aka, a waste of a draft pick
LMGO

Term coined by Washington Post sports columnist Tom Boswell to describe the quickness and violence of the Skins' defense in the 2007 preseason. http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2007/08/26/AR2007082600043.html
Man Boobs
Gregg Williams
"Mr." Snyder
Dan Snyder, Redskins owner
Nnana Mushmushi
Misremembered name of Oakland Raiders CB, Nnamdi Asomugha, who may be a better free agent CB pickup because he is a great CB on a crappy team (as opposed to Asante Samuel, a good CB on a great team).
Other names for Jasno
JLaC, JLC, JLaToucanfora, Jason LaCantReporta, etc.
Peep(s)
An RI regular, lurker, intermittent poster, etc. -- rough translation "people here"
Priest Holmes
An NFL player who is contractually tied to the Kansas City Chiefs, but potentially the future Swiss Army Knife of the Washington Redskins
Shabingus
Multiple catastrophes occurring simultaneously. Alternately, any gathering of RI regulars which, of course, would contain multiple catastrophes occurring simultaneously.
SJK
Sorry Jack's Kids. Used as a replacement for adult language. (Can be used as a noun, verb, adjective, adverb or exclamation.)
Smack to the back of the head
Idiotic comments, actions, posts or any general foolishness will bring out jm220 and his Conan the Barbarian hammer and he will show up at your cyber home and ye shall feel his wrath. Anyone can smack their own heads but only jm220 can smack another.
St. Joe
Joe Gibbs
Super
Coach Gibbs' favorite adjective for adding emphasis to a word

The Crickets
An efficient and highly-trained group of web crawlers who search the Internets for interesting articles that are posted on RI in the middle of the night for the benefit of RI reader/bloggers. They operate only in the overnight hours on a somewhat sporadic basis. (Accept no substitutes.)
Up Here
A Joe Gibbs presser favorite, it describes playing in the NFL as the pinnacle (but also any reference to his own location, the "up" is unnecessary), and is now used to describe where we blog.
X_1967itis
Inflammation of the blog. A temporary condition. Sometimes referred to as a troll.

Watch
Sorry, but I felt compelled to heavily edit the TCCL definition. The definition of "jumping the shark" is just too far from what we mean by TCCL, so I pulled that out. Because, you know, community-generated content is all about accuracy. And I am a dork.
