In first-person shooters, the idea of firing fully automatic weapons in long streams at a single human target. A corrolary to the Stormtrooper effect.
Newbs andnoobs often have this problem, probably due to the thrill of firing a weapon they (hopefully) don't have in real life at high rates of fire. However, pros do it too. (Admit it!) It exclusively affects users of submachine guns (especially when dual-wielding) and full machine guns. Assault rifles are less prone to this, and semi-automatic/single-shot weapons do not experience this at all.
In general, firing machine guns in short bursts is more accurate, as barrel climb and recoil don't take effect, allowing more bullets to hit a small, moving target. It also wastes less ammo. However, stream firing has its uses, such as supressive fire against large groups of people or against large targets like vehicles.
Named after Rambo and Topper Harley from "Hot Shots: Part Deux", a mid-1990s Rambo parody. Both are infamous for firing large machine guns with seemingly unlimited ammunition.

What you say when someone else asks for your help with a so-called "emergency". While this response may indeed be fully valid/appropriate in cases where the asker is unreasonably seeking assistance and/or should be seeking said assistance elsewhere, it unfortunately can also be abused, wherein the speaker may be wrongfully denying the asker reasonable or "Golden Rule" help --- in other words, the same type/degree of assistance that HE HIMSELF would logically expect from others if HE had a similar unexpected crisis in his OWN life.
Stranded motorist: Thanks so much for coming out in the rain to give me a jump-start, Buddy! Bless your heart!
Redneck hippie in an ancient Ford F-150: No problemmo, Dude --- it's only what I'd want myself if I was in this same situation. I'm just sorry you walked all that distance to ask me for help... there's a fairly well-off family who lives a good quarter-mile nearer here than I do, and they have several nice vehicles that they could have helped you with.
Motorist: Yeah, well I actually DID ask there, and the smooth-skinned older hombre who came to the door with a TV-remote in his hand just told me curtly, "It's not my problem --- you should have remembered to turn off your headlights."
Redneck: Really?!?? Well, that totally SUX --- I guess HE'S just never had any problems like this, and so he doesn't know that errors like that can happen to anyone!
