The sort of compensation, maybe a few grand, that non-executive professionals might receive upon being laid off. Unlike the golden parachute, the bronze one will not afford you a luxurious retirement, only a little extra time before you become a regular at the soup kitchen.
"Sure, getting $2,000 as bronze parachute is better than nothing at all, but with my mortgage payment like it is it won't be long before I come crashing through the roof of the homeless shelter."

Breaking wind under the covers and quickly trapping your bed-mate in the fog under the blanket. A quicker application of a dutch oven.
My girl has caught on to the dutch oven, so I had to hit her quick with a german parachute on one of my gassier days.

A game of any kind (mostly video games) that is lacking a real sense of direction and purpose but is masked by the sociology aspect of the game.
Games like this usually have a multiplayer feature which causes this "masking" or "The Parachute". This term is a generalized and complicated term for which it simply explains how people treat a game as a group. Games that have been seen as Parachute games are usually still widely played mostly because of the social part of the game that they can't break away from. The games have no real multiplayer aspect, but they are seen as fun because of the forceful gathering of people in order to make it fun. MMos titles can have this affect, because of the major social aspect of the game.
This Term does not have to be negative and can simply describe a game that is only played because of what people made of it and not what it actually is.
