It's Futile!

A quote from Ultra Gogeta Blue when he activates his blast counter In Dragon Ball Legends. Mostly associated with the American Bald Eagle cry and Playboi Carti's Song "Cash Shit" guitar remix on earrape. It is usually followed up with "Hope you're ready!", which is what Gogeta Blue says when he uses his blue card that can be combed with the counter to deal damage to the opponent.
*Opponent uses a blast/blast type blue card while Gogeta's unique gauge is full*

Future Bass

A genre of electronic music involving but not limited to:
1) filtered/modulated saw synths that can be detuned, with gliding pitch, with multiple voices to make it that crispy supersaw frequently used by Flume and Illenium. This can be used for chords, plucks, or leads.

2) Brassy sounds for synths or bass. Just make sure it's detuned and glidey.
3) Arpeggiated plucks for accompaniment.

4) Reese bass or some other detuned, low-passed bass. Often 808's.

5) Trap-influenced drums/percussion with toms dispersed with the kicks and snares. Impacts can help with the impact of the drop.

6) BPM 90-160. Usually between 90 and 130. The higher ranges are often associated with future bass sub-genres like Kawaii Future Bass or future trap.

7) White noise and heavy buildup with cutoffs opening up leading to drop.

9) Very focused on melody and chords.

10) Can have vocalists but not necessary. Can even have rappers.
Me: Bruh, you shoulda been at that concert. The crowd banged to that future bass Flume drop.

Boss: Oh did they? Well how about I bang you out of this job for being absent all week long!

Pseudopredictive future-past

A verb tense exclusively and habitually used by sports commentators. Despite sounding exactly like future tense, this tense is used to describe recent past events to give the illusion that said event was predicted by the sportscaster.
"...and Pujols will rip a foul one into the outfield!" exclaimed the televised play-by-play commentator, immediately after it was over and everyone could clearly that it already happened. World Series viewers everywhere rolled their eyes at the constant and annoying use of pseudopredictive future-past.

resistance is futile

1. In Star Trek, part of the standard message used by the Borg when they encounter an alien race they intend to assimilate into their collective.

2. In other uses (such as gaming), uttered by somebody about to launch what they believe to be an all-out and unstoppable attack against an opponent with the intent of conquering/defeating them in one fell swoop. Only to be used if you want to announce your presence.

3. Also used by a victor just after having utterly crushed an opponent.
1. WE ARE THE BORG. LOWER YOUR SHIELDS AND SURRENDER YOUR SHIPS. WE WILL ADD YOUR BIOLOGICAL AND TECHNOLOGICAL DISTINCTIVENESS TO OUR OWN. YOUR CULTURE WILL ADAPT TO SERVICE US. RESISTANCE IS FUTILE.

2. Player 1: "Well, I've got your forces surrounded. You're going to die now. Resistance is futile"

Player 2: "Oh, we're boned"

3. Spoinkenstein just headshot Cheezsandwich for the 10th time in a row.

Spoinkenstein: Resistance is futile.

Cheezsandwich: "D'oh!"

exercise in futility

I. an action that is generally pointless and will have no effect.

II. A discussion that is useless in the bigger picture and in which neither party is actually right, even thought both sides of the argument try to win every time.
I. washing your car before a thunderstorm is an exercise in futility
Ia. trying to exterminate cockroaches

II. the unending fight over whether rock is better than rap.

Industrial society and its future

"May I sit there?"
"That's my lap?"
"I know"
"Industrial Society and Its Future, by Theodore Kaczynski.
INTRODUCTION
1. The Industrial Revolution and its consequences have
been a disaster for the human race. They have greatly
increased the life-expectancy of those of us who live in
“advanced” countries, but they have destabilized society,
have made life unfulfilling, have subjected human beings
to indignities, have led to widespread psychological suffering (in the Third World to physical suffering as well) and
have inflicted severe damage on the natural world."
