A key-code found in many Looking Glass and Ion Storm games including System Shock, Thief, System Shock 2, Bioshock, Dishonored, Deus Ex Franchise, and more!
Many think it's a reference to Fahrenheit 451, but it was actually the key-code to get into the Looking Glass offices in Cambridge.
It has now spread and become one of the defining things in immersive simulation games.

0451 was a code first used to unlock a vault in the game Deus Ex, published by Eidos Montreal. Since then, this code has showed up multiple times in a number of video games, including Deus Ex: Human Revolution. It is a reference to the book Fahrenheit 451. The code for the first door in System Shock was 451, a System Shock 2 door had 45100 as a code, and Bioshock had a room that required the code 0451 to enter. This number is now recognized by many Deus Ex fans. The art director of Eidos Montreal even tweeted to his followers that one of his flight numbers was 0451, and stated that Deus Ex fans would know what that meant.

church hurt 

church hurt is where you experience a degree of distance, pain, or judgement from your church community. Essentially, you are just unable to “find your place”. This is prevalent in the Christian community, but can be extended to other religions.
Now that I am an adult I am beginning to heal from the church hurt that was inflicted on me as a child.

Stealthie 

when you're holding up your phone and making faces at it, as though you are taking a selfie, but you're really taking a picture of the person across from you or the wall or anything else that seems interesting but you don't want to be caught dead taking a picture of.

This action is often made more convincing by wiggling the eyebrows or opening the mouth, to pretend you're trying to get a Snapchat filter to work.
FRIEND A: "Did you just take a stealthie of me?"

FRIEND B (turning phone around): "no I was just using snapchat's new filter, see?"
