Definition: A phrase originating from an old Asian engineering teacher that has now become popular slang among students. It is used to describe a situation or problem that is particularly challenging, complex, or confusing.
Origin: Legend has it that during a particularly tough class, the wise engineering teacher muttered "TC BURR" under his breath while trying to explain a difficult concept. The students found it amusing and started using it to describe anything that seemed overwhelmingly difficult. And thus, a new slang term was born in the halls of the engineering department.

Get the TC Tugger mug.A character in Tyler, the Creators, "Wolf", Storyline. He is said to be Tyler's therapist, but, *spoiler alert*, Tyler in, "Goblin", realizes that he's been talking to himself the whole time. Tyler is originally introduced to Dr. TC when he gets in trouble at school, and is sent to Dr. TC's office. Dr. TC concludes that Tyler is a good kid, just mislead.
(Dr. TC in the Bastard intro)
"Well, Tyler, Hi, I'm Dr. TC, and um, I'm guessing that your sent you here to talk, 'cause you were misbehaving.
Um, it's gonna be three sessions, today, tomorrow, and the next day.
So, uh, just tell me something about your self...
Well look, if , if you don't talk, I mean, these sessions are gonna go even slower.

Steve: man, its been 30 years since the twins had a winning record

Steve: huh, i'll be damned

Get the Gn Sd Tc mug.A car that started production in 2008. One of the fastest fwd producion cars in the world, both on the 1/4mile and road courses, even tho it is still underestimated by both the tuner and muscle crowd but it is earning its reputation by winning races. This version of the of the cobalt ss responds VERY well to basic modifications, in some cases gaining 50whp and 100wtq off of a tune alone thanks to the STOCK twinscroll k04 turbo. The main downside to this car is that without a tune anything you do to the car performance wise is a waste of time and money because the ECU will not let you gain any peak hp or tq due to the "learn down" system. Thankfully once you get past the initial down fall of the "learn down" system the car is great, and so is the 2.0L motor that is basically fully built from factory and proven to be able to hold up to 550hp stock.
yo did you see that cobalt at the track he ran 12.6 @ 114 on street tires, i thought he had a ton of money under the hood but when i talked to him and he said all he had done was a tune, downpipe, and a drop in air filter... i NEED to get a cobalt ss/tc right now

Get the cobalt ss/tc mug.A car designed by Scion to take over the Celica's demise in 2005. This car is very tuner friendly, with the plethora of Toyota Racing Development (TRD) parts and accessories. This car has its aim on the Honda Civic and Acura RSX. It is capable of reaching nearly 500hp with affordable modification on a reliable Camry engine, that would cost thousands amoung other vehicles. It has a one of a kind, eye-appealing shape, unlike the first Scion breeds the xA and xB. It is called the tC to avoid confusion with Volvo who has an XC model line. Best bang for your buck prices starting in the mid teens and up to 20 with many factory modifications. Its just starting out and already roxoring my boxors... a very smart move by Toyota.
"hey dude... nice civic heh-heh-... ya man i got like the biggest wing evar... oh shit.. check out that tC... oh yeah its supercharged unlike my civic and i will die."
