The Return of the Living Dead is the greatest and most under rated zombie movie of all time.
It is a result of a disagreement between John Russo and George A. Romero over how to follow from their movie, Night of the Living Dead.
Russo went on to make this movie.
Buy this movie! I mean its got Zombies, naked Punk chicks, comedy, and it kicks total ass! What more do you need?

Purchasing software or music or videos from Costco with the intent of burning an illegal copy, then returning the original for credit.
I couldn't afford Premier Pro, so I did a buy burn and return and got it for 50 cents. It's a rip but I don't care. They burn us on the price, so we burn them at the return counter.

phenomenon in which greater input of effort, money, etc. yields smaller results. Crucial part of the idea is that if you're using x to get y results (where y is the thing you want). then additional input a will yield additional results b, but not in the same proportion as before.
On average, before, you put in x to get y, so your yield was y/x. But if you increase x by amount a, then your results will be y + b, where
(y + b)/(x + a) < y/x
and this will only get worse.
Diminishing marginal returns (DMR) is used to explain why the supply curve in economics slopes upward, i.e., increasing the quantity supplied requires an increased price of most things.
Sometimes DMR is more than offset by "economies of scale," which allows more of a thing to be supplied more cheaply than a small amount.

At first his flowers and treats swept her off her feet, but then he had to do more and more lavish things to please her. It was a classic case of diminishing marginal returns.

Ranging from when the original mini went out of production. This phrase is then called when any mini comes into view or is spotted and the caller may punch any number of his company without danger of them retaliating. This can only be done once per mini per person.

a smart-ass response usually to an authority figure you've pissed off. often in response to something along the lines of "you've just bought yourself a week of detention" or something else you clearly don't want but have somehow purchased.
coach: that's enough outta you, maggot! you just bought yourself another lap!

When finished with a test, the person waits for someone else to turn their test in so the person doesnt appear to be the first one finished with the test.
I waited 30 minutes after I was done with my test to turn it in, I didnt want to be first. I have test return anxiety,
