Seen commonly in the music press:
1. N. A genre of music, sometimes considered a subset of ambient or idm, which focuses on the idea of "errors" as a musical element. The "errors" in question are usually digital; a common element in glitch music is the rhythmic squeaking clicking noise which occurs when you play back a CD which has been badly scratched.
Seen less commonly, sort of local slang:
2. Adj/Adv. Something which produces pleasantly confusing and/or unpleasantly disorienting effects akin to those commonly resulting from listening to glitch music.
3. Verb. Doing something to someone which produces such effects.
1. "Oval is probably the most well-known artist in glitch, and his album "Systemisch" can be said to define the genre."
2. "The entire game consists of rolling up random 3D objects into a big wad and then throwing them into the sky. It's pretty glitch."
3. "'I saw Being John Malkovich this weekend, it totally glitched me."

The terms glitch and glitched are mainly used when something in a game powered by technology goes wrong. Other times, it may be just because something has not been considered. When it is not considered, you may be able to go through walls, some things may appear incorrectly, you could get stuck in the ground, et cetera. Other times people will use other meaning for it, but I will not mention these things in this, as there are other panels for this reason.
Person 1: Umm.. dude, look at this glitching. (look at the gif thing i don't know)
Person 2: O....kay.... Um...
Person 1: Maybe if if I just go off of the game..? -Leaves and rejoins-
Person 2: Oh gosh that's worse.
Person 1: I'm just going to leave and NOT rejoin.. -Leaves and walks away-
Person 1: That glitched hard..
The act of exploiting glitches, errors, mistakes, or a bug in a system for harmless fun or devious mischief.
Glitching can also mean that a system, such as a computer, is experiencing many glitches and technical problems at once.
"He has been at the bank glitching that ATM machine all night..."
"My comp is glitching out again, dammit."
"Glitching the character creation menu is weird, it causes every NPC in the game to turn inside out."
"If I am glitching too much in that game it causes a BSoD and my computer stops working for a few hours."
"Stop glitching or I'll ban you from the server!"
