The phrase used to described the numbing sensation that accompanies a 30-slide briefing. Behind all the PowerPoint jokes are serious concerns that the program stifles discussion, critical thinking and thoughtful decision-making.
"Last year when a military Web site, Company Command, asked an Army platoon leader in Iraq, Lt. Sam Nuxoll, how he spent most of his time, he responded, “Making PowerPoint slides.” When pressed, he said he was serious."
"Despite such tales, “death by PowerPoint,” the phrase used to described the numbing sensation that accompanies a 30-slide briefing, seems here to stay. The program, which first went on sale in 1987 and was acquired by Microsoft soon afterward, is deeply embedded in a military culture that has come to rely on PowerPoint’s hierarchical ordering of a confused world."

Get the Dead Chuffed mug.Dead Moose is a form of horseplay usually participated in by a group of men. The term was made famous by the Eminem line:
"Sometimes I wanna get on TV and just let loose/But can't, but it's cool for Tom Green to hump a dead moose"
which references actor Tom Green humping a dead moose on MTV.
The game starts when one member of a group places their thumbs on their temples and stretches out their fingers, resembling a moose's antlers. The rest of the group follows suit and the last one to do so becomes the dead moose. The dead moose must immediately lie still on the ground, while the rest of the group dry humps them with vigour. The game is over when the humpers decide that the dead moose has been defiled enough.

Get the Deadeye mug.The US Marine Corps (UMC) Black Hawk Helicopter, or the Middle-East Coalition (MEC) and Chinese transport helicopters,in the video game Battlefield 2. The Death Chopper is named such because of its weak armor, slow speed, and light and ineffective weapontry. Because of these qualities, Death Choppers are extremely vulnerable to enemy fire from both land and air-based enemies. Its status as a death-trap is further incrased by the fact that it frequently carries large numbers (up to 6) of players, providing a quick and easy way to obtain a large number of kills. Death choppers most frequently fall victim to enemy aircraft or air-defense turrets, although gunship helicopters, turret-mounted machine guns, and shoulder-lauched anti-tank weapons (noob toob) also claim thier fair share of Death Choppers.
Death Choppers are most vulnerable on the "Wake Island 2007" map, where they often provide the "best" way for noobs and newbies to either get off the USMC carrier (for the US team) or get onto it (Chinese team). Expect to get a full 6 kills if you shoot one down on this map during the beginning or middle of the game.
