Other examples included adding additional spaces, changing "Elissa Robbins" into "E lissa Robbins," so that your best friend appears at the top of the list of "E"s in your cellular telephones address book.

I went to call Charles and instead of having to scroll down past Caleb, Carl, and Cecilia, I luckily had used force-sorting and as a result, he appeared at the top of the list as C harles.

Get the Force-sorting mug.Pronounced "Forderón". Nickname given to the Toronto Raptors' prolific point guard duo of T.J. Ford and Jose Calderon. They shared the position from 2006-2008 until Ford was traded to Indiana in a six player trade in June 2008.
Other variations: Caldeford or T.Jose Caldeford

"But now the Raptors have an answer for all of that. Thanks to the prolific posters at Realgm.com, their two-headed, four-named duo of T.J. Ford and Jose Calderon has been shortened to Forderon for the sake of brevity and, truth be told, accuracy.
The big-name one names dominate the top of the NBA's point guard statistics, which ideally communicate both efficiency and generosity.
Chris Paul leads the NBA with an average of 10.6 assists a game. Kidd is second with 10.4, while Williams has 10 and Nash and Davis have 8.9 and 8.8, respectively.
But Forderon might be superior to all of them. Ford is sixth in assists with an average of 8.1 a game, while Calderon is tied for 14th with 6.6. No other point guard duo has two halves in the top 20 in the league."

A branch of the military services known for direct action and a casual approach to problem-solving. Sleeping under clean sheets is an essential component of the lifestyle.
Example 1. If you need a bridge, factory or city removed, call the Air Force and it will be gone before happy hour at the Officers' Club.
Example 2. If you told Navy personnel to "secure a building," they would turn off the lights and lock the doors. The Armywould occupy the building so no one could enter. Marines would assault the building, capture it, and defend it with suppressive fire and close combat, leveling it in the process. The Air Force, on the other hand, would take out a three-year lease with an option to buy.

3: Forced diversity is usually solely applied to popular IP to insert groups that weren't a part of the medium ( this is often done poorly) Usually, the lore and story are put secondary behind the diversity and inclusion agenda.
