:weenie: n. 1. [on BBSes] Any of a species of luser resembling a
less amusing version of {BIFF} that infests many {BBS}
systems. The typical weenie is a teenage boy with poor social
skills travelling under a grandiose {handle} derived from
fantasy or heavy-metal rock lyrics. Among sysops, `the weenie
problem' refers to the marginally literate and profanity-laden
{flamage} weenies tend to spew all over a newly-discovered BBS.
Compare {spod}, {computer geek}, {terminal junkie}.
2. [Among hackers] When used with a qualifier (for example, as in
{UNIX weenie}, VMS weenie, IBM weenie) this can be either an
insult or a term of praise, depending on context, tone of voice,
and whether or not it is applied by a person who considers him or
herself to be the same sort of weenie. Implies that the weenie has
put a major investment of time, effort, and concentration into the
area indicated; whether this is good or bad depends on the hearer's
judgment of how the speaker feels about that area. See also
{bigot}. 3. The semicolon character, `;' (ASCII
0111011).
