this is informative and unfortunate 

When a friend or a colleague does something utterly stupid and idiotic, and you have to hold them accountable, even if they're a friend.

It originates from a comment by Louis Rossmann on a video about the crappy communication style used by the then Graphene OS lead.

It's mainly used in the enthusiast tech sphere.

Linus: *incorrectly craps on and auctions a very expensive prototype that might bankrupt a small company*

Louis: This is informative and unfortunate.

Bob's Your information Minister 

A homer fan who frequents a rival sports team's fan site (e.g. orangemane.com), and who:
1. Spreads optimistic lies about his own team even though the obvious evidence of massive failure has been cascading down around him and his team for decades;
2. Lives in his mother's basement (even though she lives in a trailer),
3. Has never held a steady job, unless you count buying and selling Star Wars memorabilia on eBay a steady job,
4. Has never, ever kissed a girl he isn't related to and likely never will.

You're moving to Kansas City? Dude, there nothing more pathetic than that. That's totally Bob's Your Information Minister.

Randy:"What is Minecraft, and how do you tame a horse in it?"
Stan:"You guys don't need to be watching that stuff."
Randy:"Oh come on! You can't block your parents from watching informative murder porn!"
