Noun. An amazing piece of equipment. It’s a very large specialized tow truck that can lift up to 100 tons. The heaviest types of boom can rotate, effectively turning the tow truck into a sort of mobile crane, called a "rotator", and are usually reserved for heavy vehicle accidents. In the past boom trucks used a "hook and chain" system where chains are looped around the vehicle frame or axle, then lifted by a boom winch.

Get the rotator mug.Flock Rotation is a method employed by an individual to ensure that no friendship group gets bored of their company or behaviour.
Having drained one set of friends, s/he moves to the next, leaving each group enough time to forget just how annoying they are.

Get the Flock rotation mug.Refers to where you temporarily spin your rectangular mouse-pad a fraction of a turn so that you can roll the mouse diagonally along the pad for maximum "continuous travel-distance" before having to lift the mouse and bring it back up to the top of the pad again. Useful for when you need to move the cursor farther than an entire "top to bottom" or "left to right" sweep of the screen, such as if the web-page is extra long/wide, or if you are needing to view the page with the magnifier racked up considerably.
I always set my cursor's travel-speed at maximum so that I usually don't have to move the mouse very far to navigate the entire screen-area; once in a while I have to look at a really long column of text or images (like if I'm reading a large volume of text or shopping for items on a lengthy catalog-page), though, and so I do a 1/7-turn mouse-pad rotation to minimize my having to perform "fresh-bite hops" with the mouse.

Get the 1/7-turn mouse-pad rotation mug.Rotational Staff is a system found in a few discord servers in which an even number of members switch places for moderation every 1-2 weeks depending on the rules of the server. A moderator will get his/her role for a certain amount of time before the administrator switches the power with the person next in line. The method is to have an even amount of people to which for every one moderator there will be one more rotational staff to take his/her place after their time is up.
This system was created to maximize experience and let as many people as possible try out being moderator without having too many moderators at once. It also allows new members and new people to try it out rather than having the same mod team every time.

Administrator: "Alright, it's been 2 weeks, time to switch places"
Rotational Staff: "Alright here we go!"
Moderators: "Have fun, being moderator for now"
Rotational Staff: "You'll get it back in 2 weeks, don't worry we won't mess things up and undo what you guys did"
Moderators: "Hmm, maybe it should be 1 week so we can switch more often and have more fun, some of us were busy for most of the week so we think it would be best if we lowered it to 1 week so there would be more chances for us all to have a go at being moderator"
Administrator: "Well, let's hold a general staff vote to see if people agree with it being lowered"
Vote:
• 5/15 decide to keep it at 2 weeks
• 10/15 decide to lower it to 1 week
Administrator: "Alright, it has been decided! It will be lowered to 1 week until switching"
