An automobile component that can be found in virtually every car, foreign or domestic. Invented by Mortimer Ford(Henry Ford's illegitimate half brother or something), the hydroscillator's only known function is to allow vehicles to drive themselves in a semi-sentient manner. Although hydroscillator design varies, they are usually a fist-sized cylindrical device with two wires sticking out.

Mechanic: "Well see here's your problem; your blinker fluid lines burst and shorted out the hydroscillator. While I was checking, I saw that your muffler bearings and flux capacitor needed replacing."

JMNs are too obsessed with exact details and accuracy to actually enjoy their hobby. As a result, they are usually unhappy, arrogant, elitist, judgemental, and seldom actually finish any models. The term was coined among aircraft modelers, but the term applies to other genres, particularly Armor and Sci-Fi modeling. Although certain online forums are known for being JMN hangouts, they can be anywhere.
Things a JMN would obsess over.
Rivet-counting.
Luftwaffe(RLM) paint-matching.
Messerschmitt Me 109 vs Bf 109.
Expensive aftermarket add-ons for kits.
F-16 Viper Block number.
Deficiencies in commercially available models.
Details that would be impossible to see in miniature, such as a pilot's eyebrows.

Get the roach coach mug.A neat little airliner made by boeing that is 9.55 times better looking than anything airbus has ever made(its a scientific fact). That said, the B-737 is the most produced airliner ever, with nearly 5000 built so far(and over a thousand on order). While the basic design dates back to the late 1960s, the 737 has been continuously built in dozens of variants and upgrades. Recently(2005), the 737 was selected as the basis for the US navy's new P-8 patrol plane(also the australian millitary's wedgetail). The Boeing Y1 is expected to be its eventual successor.

Get the 737 mug.A brand of sneaker with a removable slick plastic plate in the soles, under the arch of the foot. The plate enabled the wearer to grind on rails and edges without the aid of skates or a board. Style-wise, they tended to be pretty chunky looking, similar to skate shoes, but were probably not as comfortible. They were cool for only a few months in 1998-99, but were popular enough to cause concern among parents and schools. Succeeded by Heelys a couple years later, which had heel-mounted weels and were uglier and even less comfortible. Soaps is now a defunct maker.
Haha, my cousin saved up for a vintage pair of Soaps and broke his jaw the first week after he got 'em!

Get the Geister Fahrer mug.A compact car built by the Ford Motor Company. Handles well, performs decently... don't get me wrong, its a pretty good car...
THAT'S UGLY AS FUCK, especially the hatchback version.
Usually driven by good ol' boys who can't afford gas and maintinance for their muscle cars or pickup trucks, but will not buy an imported compact.
Some say lesbians drive Focuses as well(however they prefer subaru station wagons more).
