father

The rationally-thinking parent. Helps you solve the strangest problems, unlike the mother who just whines at you.
Me: So get this: I've got this homework assignment in biology that requires me to use the book. However, we only have a class set, and they're not to be taken out of the class under any circumstances.

Father's possible response: Hmmm... so if you can't take out a book, how are you supposed to do the assignment? Maybe if we looked up the information online...

Mother's possible response: Great, now you can't do the assignment, which means you're gonna get a 0, which means you'll fail and will have to take the year all over again!

If I could choose who I wanted to live with, I'd choose my dad. Then again, I'll never be able to see my best friend again... Such a dilemma...

writer's block

A condition that may occur while writing. It causes the person afflicted to be unable to think of what to write next. Typically, the less interesting the topic is to the writer, the higher the severity and chance of occurence.

Some English instructors (different from teachers, who actually teach) will exploit this by having their students write about a topic that hardly anyone cares about. Those who get the most severe cases of writer's block will fail because they couldn't think of anything to write.
A: So I had to write an essay over the importance of having friends with different cultures and whatnot.
B: How'd you do?
A: I got writer's block before I could even begin. And failed.
B: Again?
A: Again.

flexible

When talking about RPG creation software, if a game creator is "flexible", you're going have to code a lot to make a halfway decent game. It's pretty much a euphemism.

Typically, "flexible" RPG creators usually come with crappy default systems, encouraging you to code your own. It sounds easy until it turns out the software doesn't even come with any commands to gain access to the software's enemies and items, meaning you'd have to code THEM too. It's almost the same as coding your own game from scratch.
A good example of "flexible" RPG creation software is RPG Toolkit.

proxy

Internet tool used by:
1. people to retain their anonymity.
2. trolls to evade bans on websites.
3. idiots to access websites they shouldn't be accessing when they should be working.

Proxies are usually marketed towards the latter.
1. Person: Might wanna use a proxy so we don't get in trouble.

2. Troll: About time they banned me. Time to use a proxy...

3. Idiot: lyk omgz did u no der r deez thingz calld proxiz && u can uze dem 2 get on myspace wen ur at skool????/

Law of Sequels

Law that states that a sequel to a movie or game will always be worse than the original. No (well, okay, FEW) exceptions.

This law especially applies to movies and games made after 2000, when everything started sucking ass.
I don't need an example for the Law of Sequels, do I?
