micromoment

A micromoment is 1×10^6 of a moment (SI Standard prefix "micro" = 10^6); that is, one-millionth of a moment.

The time it takes to suck a piece of boba from a bubble tea container using the straw is exactly one micromoment.

Awesome Square Law

A mathematical relationship that states the following: When two entities of awesomeness come into contact with each other, the result is something super-awesome that is the square of the total awesomeness each one brought individually.

When Batman and Superman combined forces to fight evil, the awesome square law went into effect and created an unstoppable force of good.

Other examples of the Awesome Square Law include:
1. Kenan and Kel
2. Simon and Garfunkel
3. Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson
4. Karl Malone and John Stockton
5. Bert and Ernie
