prometheus

When your grandmother puts a ziploc bag around your sphincter and proceeds to squeeze your sides and squeeze your nuts. You release fecal matter in to the bag, and shoot jizz on her face; she quickly closes it and takes it to the neighbors to feed it to their cat Rodriguez.

Prometheus Effect

A refusal to trust that something, i.e. a film, that looks promising will in any way live up to that promise, and a persistent belief that it will, in fact, totally suck. Based on the sharp discrepancy between the heightened anticipation for Ridley Scott's "Prometheus" based largely on thrilling trailers, and the joyless experience of watching the disjointed, nonsensical & pretentious film.
"I gotta admit that the most recent trailer for "Alien: Covenant" looks kinda cool, but I refuse to get my hopes up and be excited for anything anymore--total "Prometheus Effect".

Prometheus Labs, Inc.

Founded in 1892, Prometheus Labs was dedicated to researching anomalous objects for use in developing new technologies. Over the years, Prometheus Labs developed into a multinational conglomerate selling advanced and anomalous technologies to governments, militaries, and Groups of Interest. Throughout its history, Prometheus Labs displayed a nominal amount of cooperation with Foundation efforts to protect normalcy, and at times even collaborated with the Foundation, but refused to cease its study of anomalies and resisted Foundation oversight.

In 1998, following a long period of financial decline, the Prometheus Labs conglomerate was dissolved, resulting in the creation of numerous successor companies formed from its subsidiaries. The breakup of the conglomerate was fraught with technical and administrative difficulties, resulting in the loss of many products and the layoffs of numerous personnel. Most of the former projects of Prometheus Labs now in containment were recovered during this time, and many of its former employees were hired by the Foundation.

Pull a Prometheus
