technical hiccup

A unexplainable technical outage that causes end-users to despise network administrators. Typically, the term "hiccup" is used either:

to "dumb down" the explanation for the less-technically-inclined
-or-
because the network administrator hasn't a clue about what has happened and doesn't want anyone to know he can't explain the problem.

The reason you couldn't login to your computer this morning was due to a "technical hiccup" and has thus been fully digested. Thank you for your patience and have a nice day.

Technicality

1: Any detail an individual person cannot remember or does not wish to take into account.
2: A small detail, especially legal or related to rules, that NOBODY remembers or cares about unless they can abuse it for something.

1: That's just a technicality! -anyone on the wrong side of an argument
2: Did you hear they let that mass-murderer off on a technicality?

Heard it!? I'm skipping town because of it!

Brooklyn Technical High School

the only school where it is ok to play with swords in the park next to it. A school that will give you so much HW that you will have no time to watch TV. A school with so many asians that you will eventually have Asian Fever. A school where it is not hard to find fake people. A school that can make you feel like SHYT after being the top of you school in middle school. A school for the "Stuy. Rejects". A school where you can make some great freinds that can get you through all the bullshit you deal with in this school and can make it worthwhile.

Little Bobby cried for three days after finding out he was rejected by Stuyvesant but said "Fuck It, I'll Go to Brooklyn Technical High School!" there he Found that he can get so much and HW and can't even watch family guy anymore. But he became friends with Stanely and found that brooklyn tech isnt all bad
