  chomp
       
           To lose; specifically, to chew on something of
          which more was bitten off than one can.  Probably related to
          gnashing of teeth.
       
          See bagbiter.
       
          A hand gesture commonly accompanies this.  To perform it, hold
          the four fingers together and place the thumb against their
          tips.  Now open and close your hand rapidly to suggest a
          biting action (much like what Pac-Man does in the classic
          video game, though this pantomime seems to predate that).  The
          gesture alone means "chomp chomp" (see Verb Doubling).  The
          hand may be pointed at the object of complaint, and for real
          emphasis you can use both hands at once.  Doing this to a
          person is equivalent to saying "You chomper!"  If you point
          the gesture at yourself, it is a humble but humorous admission
          of some failure.  You might do this if someone told you that a
          program you had written had failed in some surprising way and
          you felt dumb for not having anticipated it.
