I suspect that I know what each of these means but I want definitions from you. :)

You're evil. :) Right-o, then. To the best of my understanding:

faceplant: To bury one's face in one's pillow, sofa, floor, etc., out of exhaustion, frustration, or stress
squick: To skeeve or ick one out, especially regarding sexual predilictions that one does not share (that's how it's generally used on LJ, anyway)
subspace: I almost don't want to answer this one, because although I have a non-verbal understanding of it, it's not something that's in my personal frame of reference, and every time I try to put my understanding into words in my head, it sounds stupid. But do correct me if I'm wrong in believing that it's the "reality beyond reality" that a sub slips into when s/he has gone so far into scene that the real physical world no longer has any real consequence. Gads, I know I just screwed that up...
bibliorgasm: The euphoria that comes from buying oodles of books.
fucknuggets: Just an exclamation: "Oh, fucknuggets!" Remembered it 'cuz it's funny.

Actually, this is interesting. I should start posting glossary items for the Slang of Peer Groups Past....
