Short for reality-distortion field. An expression used to describe the persuasive ability of managers like Steve Jobs (the term originated at Apple in the 1980s to describe his peculiar charisma). Those close to these managers become passionately committed to possibly insane projects, without regard to the practicality of their implementation or competitive forces in the marketpace.
Steve Jobs is extremely demanding of all those around him and has a very low tolerance for anything but excellence. Because he can be shockingly blunt in his dealings with others, he is often portrayed as abusive, but this is dead wrong. He simply demands/expects great things from everyone around him. I honestly believe he can't understand why anyone would want to waste their time doing anything less than great.

A Skater is somebody who rides a skateboard for a hobby. They dont have to be good to be a skater, they just have to skate. Skaters should be their own individual self and not like many poeple that just carry their boards and wear slipknot hoodies and burny 2 liners etc just to fit in and get this "skater image".

A heffalump is a creature mentioned in the Winnie the Pooh stories. Original books depict heffalumps as looking very much like elephants. Pooh and Piglet fear heffalumps, and in an attempt to cover their fears they attempt to bravely capture a heffalump in a trap. But no heffalumps are ever caught in their trap, and indeed no heffalump is ever met within the course of the books aside from those that appear in Pooh’s nightmares, wherein they are very fierce and are intent on stealing Pooh’s honey.
A heffalump has also become a term of abuse for a fat person and or oaf, similar to Jabba, as in Jabba The Hutt.
