good point well made

Said to acknowledge someone else's explanation of something and thank them for it, with the added undertone of acknowledging that yeah now that you think about it, really that should have been obvious all along and you were being stupid for even asking the question in the first place.

An early (and possibly the first) appearance of the phrase, with this undertone, occurs in a joke in the 1992 episode "Holoship" of British sci-fi comedy TV series Red Dwarf, with the following exchange:

The Cat : Why don't we drop the defensive shields?

Kryten : A superlative suggestion, sir. With just two minor flaws. One, we don't have any defensive shields. And two, we don't have any defensive shields. Now I realise that technically speaking that's only one flaw but I thought that it was such a big one that it was worth mentioning twice.

The Cat : Good point, well made.

Alice: Are you coming round to my house tonight?

Bob: No, I'm away on holiday. I told you yesterday.

Alice: Good point well made.

Bo Points

An imaginary point system awarded when a lesbian does something stereotypically lesbain.

Girl A: I just changed my oil and hammered something all while drinking a beer!

Girl B: Nice! If only you had also said "Nailed me some bitches!" You would have score bonus Bo Points.

-or-

Girl: Serena does not know how to drive a manual transmission! I am hereby stripping her of any and all accrued Bo Points.

A control point, also called a Cap or a point, is a key objective in team fortress 2. It is featured in many game modes, Ex: Control points, king of the hill, ect. It is also:
1. Something your bloody team won’t stand on to save their life
2. Something next to which there will be at least one level 3 sentry at all times

1. Soldier: Why is no one standing on this control point !!!
Pyro: *Chasing an invisible spy across the map*

2. Engineer: I will build a damn sentry in this nearly unreachable spot, and no one will ever touch this control point again.

Get out and about and enjoy how big and beautiful the world around you really is. If you make a point of smiling at everyone you meet, even strangers, the universe will make a point of smiling at you, and smiles could easily turn into dollars.
