Energy

Hym "I have the energy! Alright!? All of it! The maximum amount! You can't HAVE any, ok!? All of it is mine! And YOU... Just don't want me to have more than you! But I'll always have more! MORE THAN EVERYONE!"

Energy in the pipes

A lobotomy by Luminance. In this case, lobotomy is a meme in Geometry Dash.
Person 1: "fire in the hole"
Person 2: "nah, energy in the pipes"

Energy Chaser

The act of consuming an energy drink while doing shots of hard liquor, thus giving yourself a boost of energy to reduce the depressant nature of the alcohol.
John was feeling like an introvert at the party, so he took an energy chaser to match the vibe of the group.

Energy Weapons

The sci-fi staple made real: guns that shoot concentrated physics instead of bullets. This includes lasers (directed light that burns holes), particle beams (streams of accelerated atoms), microwaves (that cook electronics and cause unbearable pain), and sonic weapons (using infrasound or ultrasound). The appeal is "deep magazines" (power from a generator), speed-of-light travel, and precision effects from disabling to destroying. They're turning warfare from a game of ballistics into a game of applied energy physics.
*Example: "Forget ammo crates; the Navy's new destroyer has energy weapons. It uses a high-powered laser to swat down incoming missiles for about $1 a shot in electricity, looking like a Star Wars scene off the coast of Yemen."*

Energy-Directed Igniter

A catch-all term for any ignition system that focuses energy—laser, plasma, particle beam, microwave, etc.—precisely where it's needed, rather than just creating a spark and hoping for the best. Energy-directed igniters represent the cutting edge of combustion science, promising cleaner, more efficient, more controllable ignition for everything from car engines to rocket motors. They work by delivering exactly the right type and amount of energy to exactly the right location at exactly the right time, optimizing the ignition process for maximum effect. In reality, they're complex, expensive, and mostly confined to laboratories and high-end aerospace applications. But the dream is an engine that starts instantly, burns perfectly, and never pollutes—a dream that, like most dreams, remains just out of reach.
*Example: "The concept car featured an energy-directed igniter system that promised 60 miles per gallon and near-zero emissions. Journalists swooned. Investors invested. Then the engineering team tried to make it work reliably in winter, summer, and stop-and-go traffic. The dream met reality, and reality won. The car made it to production with ordinary spark plugs and 35 miles per gallon. Progress is slow."*

Energy Directed Drone

An unmanned system designed to project, focus, or deliver various forms of directed energy—lasers, microwaves, particle beams, plasma—against targets. The term is deliberately broad, encompassing any drone that fights with energy rather than kinetics. Energy directed drones represent the next generation of warfare: platforms that can engage at light speed, adjust power on the fly, and keep fighting as long as power lasts. They combine the persistence of drones with the precision of directed energy, creating systems that can loiter for hours then strike in microseconds. The category includes systems that exist (laser drones), systems that may exist (microwave drones), and systems that might exist someday (particle beam drones)—all sharing the same basic architecture: energy in, effects out.
Example: "The Energy Directed Drone didn't carry explosives—it carried capacitors and emitters, turning electricity into effects. No bang, no flash, just targets stopping working. Warfare had changed while no one was looking."
