High Frequency Oscillatory Ventilator A device used commonly in larger hospitals for people who's lungs cannot take the stress of a conventional ventilator. The High frequency oscillatory Ventilator delivers 600 to 1200 breaths a minute usually to ventilate the person's lungs, at a very fast rate, so instead of huge lung fulls of air 20 to 100 times a minute causing the lungs to open and close the ventilator only delivers tiny breaths, but at a very fast rate so the lungs are ventilated, and nice and oxygenated, BUT they don't have to be put under all that strain. Its commonly used in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit for preemature or severly sick infants.
Fred was on the HFOV for two days because the other ventilator he was on caused his lungs to collapse from all the pressure they were put under.

Get the HFOV mug.Hormonal Fury of Blueberry Shortstack. A type of person, usually female, who is slightly vertically challenged. Fury sometimes is induced as a result of hormonal fluctuations. The person shows an unusual affinity for blueberry bagels, and especially for blueberry pancakes (aka. blueberry shortstack). Overall, a very special person. =)

A lunatic who essentially dictates to people younger than him/herself, or who are not strong enough to stand up to the HFOMCD. He/she will inevitably ruin their life and they wont know it because they will have been brainwashed by the HFOMCD to believe the views as their own. They also think they are right and can never be wrong.
Something must be done to stop these idiots
