Tenacious Faulker's definitions

bubble burst

1) When something has been going exceeding well only to then run its inevitable course and either decline or fail altogether; a market correction.

2) a term adopted in business to describe an event that is currently faultering or failing or has the potential to do so.
1) I thought my job as a lawyer was recession-proof, but when Jesus returned, sent all the sinners to hell and left everyone remaining on Earth singing Kum By Ya, that bubble burst!

2) In 2007: My house was just appraised at 130% of what I bought it for and I don't think the market can support more than that for much longer. I'm going to sell it now before the bubble bursts next year.

meet and greet

Business jargon for a function before a professional meeting, seminar, convention or conference where you go to meet people in your field to network and get laid.
The National Protological Association annuall convention's meet and greet was a success. I met with the heads of 5 manufactures, 4 resellers, 2 financiers, and 3 cocktail waitresses.

Short

The small coffee size at Starbuck's; the only size on the menu there that makes any sense (et al Tall, Grande, Vente).
"Short" is the smallest size Starbuck's offers, but you'll only get this if you ask for it by name. If you do order a "small" the barista will likely give you a "Tall" because anyone asking for a "small" will get the "Tall", which is the smallest size for which the prices are actually on the menu. Also only their hot drinks can be served in the "Short" size. Sound confsing? Yeah, I hate Starbuck's too!

Hippy: There is no more privacy, man! You being online just gives Big Data everything they need to watch your every move!

Yuppy: You meant Big Brother, right?

Hippy: No, man. Big Brother would just take what he wanted, Big Data makes you WANT to give them what they want through slick technology. You're a rat in a maze, man! Don't you see?!

Yuppy: You're crazy! I have GOT to post this discussion on Facebook and Twitter. Let me take your picture with my camera phone for all my friends to see! But first let me finish ordering my Viagra online.

Man! I finally got Cindy to go home with me and I got so nervous and worked up that I couldn't get it up!

Really? Was there something wrong with her? Were you tired or too drunk?

No! She was perfect! I was ready to go! I was full sail no wind. You think I still got a shot?

No. Unlike you, that ship has sailed.
