chit-chat-storm

When you cc all your friends on an email asking a simple question in the subject line and it sets off a mass of useless comments and comments on comments ad infinitum of no use in answering the question.
I asked Google "What does it mean to be an American" and Google's number one answer was an essay by a 10-year-old who doesn't know anything about citizenship and perhaps couldn't find the USA is on the globe, all because somebody who ran a contest for kids hired an SEO expert. So I sent an email to all my friends "How do we get Google to do its fucking job?" and that set off a chit-chat-storm, but nobody had a fucking idea of how to get Google to do its fucking job.

Lucky Destroyer

Cocktail.
Recipe:
3 oz. Vodka
1 oz. Diströya Spirits
1/2 Ice Cube

You order a double by indicating you want a whole ice cube. Scale appropriately (e.g., if ordered with two ice cubes, scale by four). Illegal in most states.
First Person: I'll have a Sam Adams and my friend will have a Lucky Destroyer with one ice cube.
Second Person: Ooooh, that sounds interesting, but I want three ice cubes. Why is it called that?
Barman: Because one of you is going to get lucky and the other is going to get destroyed.
Second Person: Well, let's stop after this one drink.
First Person: That was the plan.

reductape add absurdium

The repeated patching up of a flimsy argument for a ridiculous proposition made by someone you’d think would be smarter.

Reductape is Latin for the process of repeatedly patching something until all you see is the patch and you can no longer see the thing being patched.

Absurdium is an isotope of Einsteinium (Es, atomic number 99) which when present in the brain of even the hugest genius renders them stupid.

interdisintermediation

The process of getting between you and an intermediary in the name of getting intermediaries out of the way. Recruiters intermediate by getting in between of employers and job seekers for a fee.

In theory LinkedIn should help me find my next job directly but nothing happened until I paid them a fee. Then I got flooded with spam from recruiters. Great job at interdisintermediation.

pre-thunk

Thoughts that you are wise enough to formulate before they are needed.
The reason I can respond to your inane bullshit with a coherent argument expressed succinctly and delivered in but six seconds is because I have pre-thunk thoughts and you are a parrot parroting the parrots on Fox News.
