The doctor's middle finger

A slang term for opioids, where they are viewed as a doctor's way of giving someone the middle finger. If the doctor can't diagnose a patient's condition, and the patient continues to insist on treatment options in spite of the doctor's reluctance, the doctor may prescribe the patient opioids as a way of simply shutting them up rather than helping them figure out what's wrong. Given the naturally addictive nature of opioid medications, this is often seen as a doctor's way of hurting someone back, often being viewed as the worst-kept secret of American healthcare.

"I recently found out my grandma's death was attributed to an opioid overdose. She'd received the doctor's middle finger over her chronic kidney troubles in 2006, and things were never really the same for her since then."

Can you believe it, Earl? If our team wins the basketball game, McDonalds will give out free french fries for showing our game tickets at the drive thru window! I'm sure proud to be an American!

Modern Major General

A song that debuted in an opera called The Pirates of Penzance. It entered popular culture in recent decades following its adaptation in VeggieTales. Nowadays, it's commonly parodied in various memes

"I'm very good with integral and differential calculus,
I know the scientific names of beings animalcules;
In short, in matters vegetable, animal, and mineral,
I am the very model of a modern major general!"
(In short, in matters vegetable, animal, and mineral,
he is the very model of a modern major general!)

Classical argument

A more refined form of argumentation from simpler times. Unlike modern argument, where one party seeks to assert emotional dominance over the other through the employment of manipulative tactics, classical argument involves the pure exchange of information and growth of one's own understanding of the world. The outcome of a classical argument is the mutual growth of logical fluency, where both parties are able to recognize flaws in their own reasoning and leave with an improved philosophical maturity.

"We had a classical argument about the nature of free will in my philosophy class yesterday. It was super informative and really fun!"

Hydra hotfix

When a video game developer, typically Indie, releases an update for their game without performing thorough quality control checks beforehand, causing the update to introduce new bugs in their game. Eager to fix these issues, they release a hotfix to patch the issue, but it only introduces even more bugs to fix. Lacking patience and any sort of effective quality control protocols, the game developer ends up releasing dozens of hotfixes for their previous hotfixes, creating an avoidable amount of hotfixes that would've been unnecessary had the dev taken more time to perform all necessary testing to identify potential flaws with their changes.

user1: "wtf is with all these hotfixes?"
user2: "the dev made a hydra hotfix and had to go on a wild goose chase to get everything fixed"
user1: "ffs does anyone even know what quality control is anymore"
