==Dariacon==
A Dariacon is any gathering of two or more ''Daria'' fans for any purpose. The jury is out on the issue of whether two ''Daria'' fans who get married still constitute a Dariacon, but the inclination is to say no. No organized public convention of Daria fans has ever taken place.

==Dariarotica==
Dariarotica is ''Daria'' fan work with erotic or sexual content. [http://s-c.deviantart.com/art/Daria-s-Boytoy-57296013 This] is probably the ethalone: it's not too innocent to be an erotic work, but is still tolerated by most fans.
==Dariaverse==
The sum total of all [[canon]] elements (people, places, plots) from the official ''Daria'' TV series and books. Sometimes also meant to include fan-added elements as well, but only if specifically noted as such. Increasingly used to mean each [[alternate universe]] in which [[Daria Morgendorffer]] appears in fanfic. (The earliest documented use of the term "Dariaverse" was in [http://www.reocities.com/televisioncity/network/4938/timeline.doc a fanfiction timeline] for [[Peter Guerin]]'s [[Daria: The OAV's]] [[series]], dated March 27, 1999. He wrote it as "Daria-verse." '''NOTE''': Be sure to enable Word to open "Word 2 and earlier Binary Documents and Templates". Go to File→Help→Options→Trust Center→Trust Center Settings→File Block Settings and uncheck the check box next to the aforementioned file type. Then, click the link and it should open!)
==Drought==
A term used during the show's first run on MTV to describe the period of time between the end of one season and the beginning of the next. See [[Drought]] and [[Mini-drought]].
==Elves==
"Elves" was the nickname the [[Paperpusher]] gave his moderators. He was, in effect, the "Santa" of the [[Paperpusher's Message Board]], while his moderators were Santa's Little Helpers with axes. The term was most used during the early days of the PPMB, 2000-2003, but has largely fallen out of use, especially since [[Kara Wild]] took over the message board.
==Emoticons==
A staple of nearly every message board, they are little graphic representations of people's emotions, and are used to punctuate users' posts. While the [[Paperpusher's Message Board|PPMB]] emoticons are plain yellow circles with faces, the [[Sheep's Fluff Message Board|SFMB]] emoticons come in a wide range of sizes and styles.
