flechette
n.- (flechette, flechettes)A small, sharp piece of metal, used as projectile or shrapnel weapons. Flechettes can resemble needles in design, as well as razor-edged disks, but by definition and origin are most like darts in nature. Their application is (or rather was) most useful in artillery rounds, raining thousands of such darts upon enemy emplacements- and with a startling success against body armor. Their use today is questionable, as these projectiles will not necessarily kill an enemy combatant (but possibly maim), and when used in areas thick with civilians, the cost in collateral damage can be quite high.
The use of artillery flechette rounds in populated areas has recently been criticized due to their use by the Israel Defense Forces in the Gaza Strip. These criticisms focus on the wide area of effect of artillery flechette rounds, and their use in areas with large civilian populations.

Mr. Fuschette
If someone is a ¨Mr. Fuschette¨ they basically are just a really annoying person. This is an understatement for the man this is based on though. He is almost bald and teaches 7th-grade P.E. If you ask him a question and say Mr. Fuschette he makes you say, captain Fuschette or has you run a lap. He rants on about how good looking Mr. Tucker is and also rants on about the seven times filtered Rob Machado water machine we have. He makes you tuck your shirt into your gym shorts and gets mad at you for no reason sometimes. He is also obsessed with fishing and a pretty good fishing apparel company called Pelagic along with other companies. Although Pelagic is liked by a fair share of kids, Mr. Fuschette takes it to the next level. He wears at least one Pelagic item daily and is getting the fishing club sponsored by them. Essentially he is the most let's say the interesting person you will meet.
