crock

Short for "crock of bullshit."

True beauty is on the inside? What a crock!

Comment submitted with Request to Delete: "It is hard to understand "crock" by giving a saying "crock of bullshit"; it's like defining basketball as "what they use in a basketball game"

gash

A large, ripped opening, usually caused by violent force.

Some tubes need a grid bias, and some don't.
