Little Data Thinking

Derogatory. A paradigm that some closed minded programmers adopt; thinking that they can only use or have access to data that they have in the immediate environment, memory or localized systems.
Tom, We do have other information. Lets move from little data thinking; we have access to the outdoor temperature of many other sources in the same zip code than just the one in the car.

There's me thinking

There's me thinking is a idiomatic phrase that for some reason wasn't here on urban dictionary before, and for some equally unknown reason isn't present on any other online dictionary as well. But i'm here to bring this problem to an end.
This is something of a set phrase comes out of one's mouth whenever one thinks that someone was true but is proven wrong by something he just saw/heard/learned.
Exemples:
1:- Friend one, a bodybuilder wannabe, is caught having MacDonalds.
friend two: Whoa, wtf? And there's me thinking you were on a diet, huh?
2: -A non-binary leftist is caught eating meat.
Friend of him: lol, and there's me thinking all leftists were vegetarian.
3: If you see someone getting famous using an idea you thought you were the only one that had thought of, you can say: There's me thinking i was original. lol

Four-wheeled thinking

Limiting yourself to what you know. The opposite of "thinking outside the box".
Originating from transportation, automatically thinking you need to use a car to get to your destination; where instead you could use a motorbike, train, tram, bus, scooter, or any number of vehicles that have less or more than four wheels.
Janet didn't come up with any ideas, she's holding herself back with her four-wheeled thinking.
Sure you could do it that way, but that's some four-wheeled thinking right there.

Flip Flop Thinking

To change a thought or view when it suits the person. Used by people who don't want to admit to being wrong but not realising that it shows weakness on their part.
An example of flip flop thinking:

"I voted for the reds in the recent election because they're the best party."

*Blues win election*

"I knew the blues would win - that's why I voted for them!"
