Character Induced Stupidity, or CIS, refers to any natural mental limitations that characters impose upon themselves and reduce their ability to use their own skills and powers effectively. Unlike PIS, CIS does not occur because the plot requires it, but because the character is genuinely that dumb.
Examples of the CIS-afflicted include characters such as Rhino or Jar Jar Binks. Standard CBR fights do not exempt the contestants from CIS.

The legal-industrial complex is especially prominent in the United States, where a disproportionately high number of educated individuals choose to become lawyers as a default career path and/or attend law school without having much idea of what they actually want to do with a law degree, the result of which is a lawyer for roughly every hundred people.
Joe Bob: "Have you decided what to do with your liberal arts degree yet?"
Mary Jane: "Well, in an economy like this, there are no jobs available for people with my training. So I guess I'll go to law school."
Joe Bob: "Wow, you're going to become part of the legal-industrial complex."

Get the legal-industrial complex mug.Related Words
A person who socializes with models, actors, pornstars etc in order to feed off of them for publicity, usually negative, and post it on blogging and social websites and forums to place themselves in a light only parallel to the entertainment industry. This is different than a publicist, who usually actually gets paid
A good example is me. I decided to make this term up because im an adult film star and one time I had a less than stellar public appearance in LA and this guy who serves no purpose other than poison, drew up a horrible, critiquing blog about me, as he has done to other stars that he knows, to get himself attention. Then as fans would back me up with comments, he screens out the positive attention to leave it negative. An Industry Parallelite sometimes can exist in the form of positive applications of blogging and celebrity gossip, but this is less common as negative attention arouses the media more.
