- The British pound sign. Used by the fake-Charlsie on NonSociety's now-defunct Comment of the Day section to denote that she was the "real" Charlsie during the period of many Charlsies (just before the period of "oops! Comment of the Day is gone!") (January 2009) (link)
- 11 dates
- Before Julia will have sex with a guy.
- Alex Drosin
- One of Julia's many exes that she lived with for two years in NYC after she dumped her fiance (late 2004) in Newport Beach. Alex was married with children when he shacked up with Julia.

- Julia's more successful Georgetown classmate, ABC News Moscow correspondent, rumored Julia fuck buddy, and "genuinely nice guy"; his Twitter.

- Bloat Print Cleanse
- Anorexia in a bottle. Julia credits her flat stomach to the green juices, but in fact they have wreaked havoc on her metabolism. Her hunger has caused her to go on cupcake binges while on a cleanse. NonSociety has disseminated a lot of misinformation about cleansing and juices.

- Can’t wear the same outfit more than once
- Julia is a "media personality" who can't wear the same outfit twice, or at least shouldn't wear it more than three times. So why does the same DVF dress keep popping up all over the place? Other dresses too seem to be worn frequently. Smelly, kinda like those (free!) shoes she never takes off.

- Cupcankles

- Daddy Revenue / Dadsers
- Peter Baugher, business litigator (Yale Law '73 and Princeton '70), and Julia's dad. He is apparently going to sue the pants off RBNS, though he himself is the victim of privacy violations by his daughter, who has posted his voicemails (x2, and mom's too!), emails, and picture (and more pics) on her blog. He is also politically active, which allowed Julia to get her foot in the door on Capitol Hill. The Chicago Tribune of Sept. 17 1972 profiled then-law student Peter V. Baugher under the headline "Nixon Aide's Fringe Benefit: Eating Presidential Cakes". UPDATE! Dadsers also gave some congressional testimony way back (scroll down to Biographical Information).

- Dr. Bobby
- Bobby Buka MD is the dermatologist who is responsible for Julia's lumpy face and Mary's frozen face. He is featured in the documentary "Youth Knows No Pain" (see Expiration Date), and hangs out with Julia socially. Julia has used legalese to deny getting restylane injections, but we all know she is full of BS (and fillers).
- Easter Slut Costume
- A completely inappropriate, Blair Waldorf-esque ensemble worn by Julia to church in Chicago on Easter 2009. The outfit is documented in this video, head to toe desciption, and pic (note the contrast to Momsers' conservative outfit). Julia also tweeted during the church service, as well as photographed it.
- Egoblogger

- En route to…

- Exaggerbate
- To massage the truth of one’s circumstances until climax is achieved. Example: Julia Allison is at home tonight, exaggerbating to thoughts of her 5.5 group hang-out sessions with Harvard Harley while wearing one of the gowns she borrowed for Monday’s fauxtoshoot.
- Expiration Date
- In the HBO documentary "Youth Knows No Pain", Julia claims that women have expiration dates (btw, it's strange that she missed the premiere). She's parroted the same thing before, though she's also contradicted herself. In the TMIweekly livestream of Aug. 6 2009 (partial transcript, see 16:48 onward), and in an email to a reader, Julia has tried to backpedal on her statement and frame the "expiration date" as a matter of fertility and menopause, instead of the deterioration of physical attractiveness and desirability.

- Fuck You Money
- The money Julia Allison aspires to make, which will serve as a "fuck you" gesture to the Nick Dentons of the world. Julia filmed some clips for BigThink.com in Dec. 2008 and is listed as an "expert" on that site; the "fuck you money" clip is here. Here is a picture of the banality trio giving the world the finger as the fuck you money rolls in. see also Sausage Snappers

- Getting punched in the face by James’s sister
- Julia dated James Fay (former drunk trustafarian and Julia's host on her July 2009 LA trip) in college, and when they broke up she allegedly ran off to do major damage on his credit card. Then James's sister punched Julia. Girlfight! (Julia has a habit of not getting along with her boyfriends' families.)

- Granny Moneypanties
- Julia's paternal grandmother and rumored trustfund source. Granny has not spoken to Momsers in 30 years, so Julia has to meet her at the Pancake House. Granny Baugher is the inspiration for Julia's LIU wrist tattoo. She also did not like Julia's Wired cover.

- Brendan Brogan, a Harley-riding (actually Vespa) Harvard graduate that Julia obsessed over and decimal dated in May/June 2009. They met on a blind date. The last we heard of him, he was in British Columbia.
- “Haven’t packed yet”
- Usually presented as a question ("Ask if I’ve finished packing. No, really. Ask."), this is another one of Julia's peculiar traits that she thinks makes her cute and quirky. She usually posts or tweets it hours (sometimes minutes) before she's supposed to board a plane. Exhibit A, Exhibit B. This bit of insanity is usually followed a few days later by photos of Lilly in her suitcase. Exhibit C, Exhibit D.

She has been Julia's behind-the-scenes editor, is a size 6, and has passed on her food issues to Julia. Momsers is active in philanthropy and her church. Though they are kindred spirits, sometimes Julia has gone for long periods without speaking to her mom.

- Pretty Pink Pony Palace
- Julia's apartment, also known as the Flaccidizer due to the abundance of pink and tutus. Julia has taken a cue from RBNS and started referring to her apartment as the pink palace. The apartment is a cramped studio, but can always fit in a motley array of douchebags if need be.

- Rosie has many homes, one of which happens to be in Julia's building. Of course Julia's tried to hobnob with her, but Rosie is not in very often, and is not neighborly. Julia's two middle names are "Tact" and "Discretion", so she tweeted about a screaming match between Rosie and her wife. More bad press for Julia. It's worrisome that Julia also mistook Rosie's SUV for a cab.

- Weekly vanity photoshoot
- Part of Julia's "job" is staging a continuous stream of photoshoots. During her tenure at Time Out NY, shoots were a weekly affair (sometimes mistaken for low-budget porn!), but even since being fired Julia has kept up the pace (birthday shoot, red-head romper whore shoot, defiling NY public library shoot). Girl's gotta have new headshots after each visit to Dr. Bobby! Meghan has also branched out into photoshoots (her calling!) for her shilltastic sponsor (seems this earlier shoot was too crappy to use for shilling). Mary has taken part in her share of photoshoots, but also schooled Julia on the "selfish, tacky" nature of impromptu shoots. PS. Couldn't leave out this little gem.
