Startup Street's definitions
The inevitable and utterly confusing motion of launching a startup. Similar to two steps forward, one step back. With added layers of chaos and insanity pulling in multiple directions at once.

Get the BackassForwardmug. Based on the term "quiet-quitting", a condition where people quit a job, ghost everyone, with no regard to anyone else at all. A fairly cowardly move, that inevitably is a bad character trait, setting them up for long term failure in their life.
