Plans Are Optional

proper noun: a decent podcast made by 3 mildly funny, tired and relatable middle aged nerds who struggle with recording equipment, but still make it work.

them: Are you listening to any podcasts right now?

me: Plans Are Optional.

them: Why don't you just say no, instead of trying to sound mysterious?

me, sighing: -_- no, thats the name of a podcast, Plans Are Optional.

Option Three

"Option Three" is the option to overthrow the government through armed revolution.

Popularized by the Twitter Hashtag #OptionThree created after the January 6, 2021 occupation of the U.S. Capitol building.

When the government executes an unarmed woman in the Capitol, the only choice left is Option Three.

optionment

An optionment is an optional assignment.

Much to my dismay, my students think their assignments are optionments and tend not to complete them.

Optional October

This is the prelude to "no-shave November." It is where shaving becomes optional due to a variety of factors, including the beginning of the MLB playoffs, your favorite NFL team being 3-1, plain old laziness, or the fact that one just needs some practice not shaving. It can also relate in northern tier states to the beginning of deer bow hunting.

Dude, you didn't shave today. Are you prepping for "No-Shave November?" "Yep, but it has a name. It's called Optional October."

McDonald's Option

A technique for getting decisions and perhaps even consensus from a group. This is most useful for groups who are stalled on making a decision, be it big or small.

The name comes from a common problem when a group is trying to decide where to go for lunch. Often everyone will say "I don't care, where do you want to go?" and it is not until someone makes an unpopular suggestion that their true opinion is voiced. The catalyst of saying "McDonald's!" as a proxy for the bad choice will push the group members into offering alternatives. Quickly a decision that is not McDonald's is selected.

Jennifer sketched a new website homepage design with a purposeful emphasis with the wrong call to action. This McDonald's option allowed the stakeholders to describe what corrections were needed to get to the right design.
