A small plastic stick that upper management will carry around if they work in a job that requires a lot of cleaning/janitorial work. The stick is ineffective but looks impressive. They only can use it to grab small pieces of trash. Much less useful than a broom or a dustpan.
It is a way for upper management to claim they are "working with the employees" but doesn't make them do much work.

When I see the general manager wielding his manager stick, I wonder how many other people can see through the facade.

The "polite" way hot girls on dating sites turn down guys because they think it spares their feelings.
Translations:
"You're not my type" = "You're ugly"
"I don't feel a connection" = "You seem incredibly boring"
"We're not looking for the same thing" = "You're creeping me out"

A thinly veiled threat which means "If you don't do what I want you to do, I will screw you over. But I'm not telling you what I want you to do."
Jose proceeded to gloat about all the dirt he said on me, and then he kept saying "you're the boss" at me, meaning if I didn't do what he wanted, he'd hurt me somehow.

A bullshit buzzword used by self-diagonosed autistics to imply that anyone who doesn't suffer from their condition has had an easy life and thus has no right to complain about anything. Often shortened to "NT".

Coined by Brian "The Dark Lord" Chamberlain, AKA The DLC.
Originally it was used by the Dark Lord to complain about a ruling by the DM that caused him to say, not do nearly as much damage as he expected to in D&D.
Now it is more of a word generally used to question anything that seems illogical, out of place, ironic, or hypocritical.

Early Usage (Circa 2001-2003)
DLC: I cast LIGHTNING BOLT on the group of **name of monster we're fighting**!
*rolls a bunch of dice*
I do 32 Damage. Ahh...
Steve (DM): The lighting seems like it SHOULD have hurt them... but they don't appear hurt.
DLC: Uhh... Steve, **name of monsters** aren't immune to lightning spells... unless... oh CRAP! In PLAYER I know what we're fighting, but my character doesn't know! Dammit. *Arrogant look.*
Later example (2004-05)
Me: Max, a pound of feathers weighs less than a pound of bricks.
Max: Uhh, Steve... they're both a pound...

An NRA convention happens when you get a bunch of people raised in the Midwest with those quavering "machine gun" voices they develop out there, and they're all talking to each other!
Enh-heh-heh-heh-heh-heh! Enh-heh-heh-heh-heh-heh!
When my dad, grandpa, stepmom, and aunt are all together, it's an NRA Convention!
