Loved the Oxford English Dictionary 'Word of the Day' from yesterday (9/12/11):
MOUSEBURGER, n.
"A young woman of unexceptional appearance and talents, regarded as timid, dowdy, or mousy; (originally) such a person who can nevertheless achieve professional and personal success through determination."
Apparently it is "Chiefly U.S. (humorous)."
