OpenGL

A geek-culture meme or catchphrase used to describe any task or situation that is notoriously difficult, complex, or prone to failure. It's a play on the acronym for the "Open Graphics Library," a computer graphics API infamous for its steep learning curve. The phrase "Open" followed by "Good Luck" is a wry acknowledgment that you are about to embark on a journey where success is far from guaranteed.

I just saw the final exam study guide. Looks like it's "OpenGL" from here on out.
