Business Decision

The term Business Decision is used to rationalize a seemingly irrational choice in the face of obvious or logical alternatives. Often, there appears to be no logic whatsoever in a "Business Decision" which is coincidently very often the case. The term Business Decision is frequently used by executives and managers at corporations to describe a poor decision while either saving face or avoiding laughing uncontrollably.
"We made a 'Business Decision' to use a service that is offered by a key business partner at ten times the price of an effective alternative from a different supplier."

The Galvis Theory of Gender Decision

During birth, as the shape of the human child begins to take form, a duck bill also is formed. In about a week, the bill will drop off and either attach to the infant's waist, or it will journey inside the anal cavity. If the bill attaches to the waist, it becomes a penis. If it does not, the child remains a female. Some anomalies may occur, such as attaching to the nipple. This will cause a disease known as Retardednippleemia which is common if the woman who is pregnant has many sex partners. Another common defect that may occur is when two bills form and one bill tunnels up the anal cavity and the other one will attach to the waist. The male born will be homosexual. Another exception to this rule is when no duck bill forms which also causes the female to become homosexual. Science has recently proved this to be true.
Surprisingly, some doctors refuse to accept The Galvis Theory of Gender Decision, however Professor Rarington Rockwood has agreed with Galvis's theory for quite some time.

poor life decision

Any choice made by an individual which results in shame, remorse, guilt, embarrassment, harassment, and other related feelings/consequences. These decisions tend to be hastily made and are usually pre-meditated, often with the understanding that negative feelings and ruined reputations are soon to follow. These poor life decisions (also often referred to as "PLD's") are elected for the sole purpose of self-gratification, attention, sexual pleasure, or to cure boredom. Often, these decisions involve sexual-based interactions with relative strangers and tend to result in morning-after stories of seemingly good ideas gone awry. Note: Alcoholic beverage consumption tends to increase the rate of PLD occurrences.
"Hey guys, I'm working on my 10th poor life decision for the month! I think I'm going to sleep with that a-hole who refuses to return my calls and makes me pay for cab rides over to his place everytime I offer a little late-night action."
