The Kraft Singles Method

When your having sex with a girl and she asks you to put on a condom, you pull out a Kraft Singles Mac & Cheese cheese packet that you've been saving in your pocket, and open it to fake the sound of a condom wrapper opening. Later, when she asks you to go down on her, you pour the cheese into her pussy to make it taste better.

"She asked me to go down on her!"
"Daaaamn that sucks!"
"It's okay, I used The Kraft Singles Method. I was able to hit it raw, and get a snack!"

Stetson-Harrison method

A general method for estimating various numerical values. The values are pulled out of a hat (Stetson), i.e. made up. The purpose of Harrison is to increase credibility.

As a generalization, things other than numbers can also be estimated using the Stetson-Harrison method.

Our group did not have any experience or competence in determining a suitable scope for the project, so an estimate for the scope was produced using the Stetson-Harrison method.

Multi-Clicking Method

1) A method used by those who submit to urbandictionary. The method involves going to urbandictionary every day to click the thumb up in order to try to gain viewers, because it didn't make the word of the day.

2) Something that will happen to this definition if it does not become word of the day.

Goddammit! My words fart echo, lower angelina, sperm derm, and kesha with a dollar sign did not become word of the day. Now I am never going to be the big-shot urbandictionary submitter. Oh well! I better resort to the Multi-Clicking Method
