FINO

Jerry C. Bostick, Flight Dynamics Officer of the Apollo 13 mission, said to the 1995 movie's script writers, "We just laid out all the options, and failure was not one of them.", which totally inspired the writers and gave them the line, "failure is not an option" - or FINO.

FINO

Friend In Name Only: A one-time close friend with whom you still presumably share mutual warm feelings, but seldom (if ever) actually see or communicate with anymore. (Rhymes with "wino")

Russ and I were best buds back in the early '00s, but the last time we spoke was Obama's election night. Guess these days he's basically just a FINO.

FINO

First in - never out.
This means that the items first placed in a container are never put out again, and begin rotting.

Why do you always put the new clothes on top of your stack in the wardrobe? This is a true FINO behavior!
