the cloud 

A part of being burnt, a state of mental unclarity that pops up at random times during the day. The cloud fogs up your brain and makes it very hard to concentrate or pay attention. The cloud comes and goes as it pleases and passes in about half hour before it strikes again.

Shit, dude, I had the cloud all through bio today.

Put it in the cloud 

A generic and naive response to a technology problem which effectively takes the problem out of the realm of an organization's responsibility. This basically equates to outsourcing technology solutions which end up being inferior service for twice the cost.

Engineer - "We need $10,000 and another full time employee to re-engineer and manage this technology"
CIO - "We should just put it in the cloud"
Engineer - "What cloud?"
CIO - Looks around nervously..."The one there..." as he points to a picture of a cloud on the cover of his new CIO magazine.
Engineer - Returns to his cube where he promptly hangs himself with an ethernet cable.

Peeling the Curtain behind the Cloud 

To reveal hidden detail or an illusion to an otherwise oblivious person or audience. Peeling the curtain behind the cloud is to give yourself or others away.

A phrase commonly used and misunderstood in the popular podcast 'Two Guys who Sometimes Disagree'.

Nick: That's some funky crayfish

Micah: It was left outside for four days

Nick: Don't peel the curtain behind the cloud

"Don't peel the curtain behind the cloud to reveal the Louisiana Crayfish."

"Stop peeling the curtain behind the cloud."
