Peak bagging

Peak baggers have a mild obsession with collecting as many summit victories over significant named peaks as possible. They'll hike often and quickly usually sacrificing comfort for time saved.

Frank: Hey Bob, Let's do this loop trail and we can bag 6 peaks on one hike!
Bob: It's 20 miles of trail!
Frank: We can do it!
Bob: Got to love Peak Bagging!

Ballmer Peak

The theory that computer programmers obtain quasi-magical, superhuman coding ability when they have a blood alcohol concentration percentage between 0.129% and 0.138%. The discovery of this effect is attributed to Steve Ballmer, CEO of Microsoft - who probably "discovered" it by simply monitoring his own perpetually inebriated nervous system, and deducing that programming ability "peaks" after a few drinks and then dips dramatically after full-blown drunkenness ensues.

If you can convince your boss that this is all based on legitimate science, and that the effect is real (i.e. your drunkeness = better code = more money for the company), then you will have achieved perfection in this world. There will be no reason to ever come back sober from lunch again.

Also known as "The Ballmer Curve" and "The Ballmer Effect" this state has been observed by people who play darts... and musicians. Although, to be fair, musicians only notice the effect briefly (and totally by accident) as they transition from complete sobriety to absolute drunkeness - without ever even trying to moderate their alcohol intake in order to stay at the peak.

I had three more Long Island Teas after I had already hit the Ballmer Peak, so now none of my fucking code will compile.

peaked in high school

(n./adj.) This phrase can be used to describe people that routinely bring up high school when they are well into their 30's, because they haven't had a single exciting or interesting experience since their senior year, and as such their lives and themselves are said to have, "peaked in high school."

This term is often used when speaking disparagingly about an individual or group. This phrase can only be used appropriately after-the-fact (i.e. after individual/group leaves high school) to accurately gauge if (s)he qualifies for such status.

I have noticed a lot of athletes, clowns, and bullies peaked in high school, whereas geeks, nerds, and dweebs are often at the lowest risk of 'peaking', because their high school experience(s) leave them no where to go but up.

Taiwanese Peacock

When you pour different colors of dye into a females (or males) anus then they proceed to fart and spurt out the dye resulting in a splatter of colors dripping and spraying out of his/her ass hole which resembles peacock feathers.

I was with Tayla last night and we did the Taiwanese Peacock and she gave my room a makeover.

quit at the peak

A verb often reffering to an instance in time when a person, or persons completely drops their career at its height. This is thought of as a power move to solidify one’s impression in the minds of the latter, or to proclaim alpha status.

Person 1: Why did you stop making music when you finally hit the top 10?
Person 2: I quit at the peak, I am the alpha swine.
