The most phisically demanding sport, you will ever encounter. It's hard, exhausting and makes you feel like you want to collapse. Rowers get up every morning at 6 to go out in the freezing cold weather to row with there 'pogies'. Even in 12 degree weather, they walk around in a one piece lycra and a spandex top. During winter training, rowers train inside doing runs, circuits, weights and ergos which normally consist of 2k, 5k and the dreaded 30 minutes. 30 minutes are dread awful. It's hard to describe the pain of 30 minutes but most rowers are crying by halfway. Rowing is the greatest dport ever. Admit it. It's true.
"Hey I'm going rowing after this."
"In this weather? It's raining!"
"Hey, don't worry, I've got my full lycra and spandex kit to keep me toasty warm" ;)

pulled a jk rowling 

1. An feeble attempt made by story or character writers to renew interest in a dying media franchise by giving a character an uninteresting or useless trait which adds little no depth to their character, and usually used as a measure to conceal their impending failure or as an effort to bring diversity to a whitewash cast of characters.

Ironically, even though sales were peak for the series during this time, in 2007, Harry Potter writer J.K. Rowling revealed the sexuality of book character Dumbledore as being gay with an ass-pull wizard, receiving some backlash readers and fans alike arguing that she gave no real depth to his character up until the storyboarding of "Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindlewalde"

2. Taking definition 1 and following through with it because you managed to gain or already had enough traction to actually continue your franchise and write a full filling and deep story for such a character.
Example 1.
Guy 1: Bro, did you hear that news about Soldier from Overwatch being gay?
Guy 2: Yeah man, they pulled a fucking JK Rowling because they couldn't save their toxic community and gaming league, or nerf their fucking characters.
Guy 1: I stopped playing after they added that retarded hamster anyway.

Example 2.
Guy 1: Did you watch the last episode of Adventure Time?
Guy 2: Nah, I heard they pulled a JK Rowling by making Princess Bubblegum and Marceline lesbians.
Guy 1: They actually made a decent storyboard with their romance and the aftermath overall in the New seasons.
Guy 2: Alright, might give it a watch.

"Hey bro, wanna get in on our Stanford Rowing Team?"
"Isn't that kinda gay, dude?"
"It's cool, just don't make eye contact with the coxswain"

murderhobo 

In a tabletop game, a murderhobo is a player who murders NPCs indiscriminately. This is normally derogatory, referring to a player who totally ignores quests, dialog, backstory, trade, world building etc.

The term is most common with Dungeons and Dragons, but it can be applied to most RPGs where the player is allowed to kill most quest-giving NPCs and NPC traders. E.g. Elder Scrolls, Fallout, Divinity original sin.
