Get the Adam pointsmug. 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.
Bob: No, I'm away on holiday. I told you yesterday.
Alice: Good point well made.

Get the Friction pointmug. A moo point or a mooed point is just a lingual bastardization of a moot point:
It was originally Joey Tribbiani (Friends) who used the phrase, it was a joke, a twist on “moot point.”
A moot point basically doesn’t matter: it’s not worth discussing because it just doesn’t apply for whatever reason.
In legal jargon, it means your argument is inapropo: it doesn’t apply & it’s not timely, so it’s actually NOT an argument because it’s inapplicable - not necessarily completely illogical; but for some reason, it doesn’t apply to the case. Sometimes the statute of limitations has run & that law no longer applies, so the point is moot, dead.
Origin (1500’s): a moot point needed group discussion and debate.
Modern use: a moot point is only up for debate in hypothetical cases, as in law school/intellectual debate.(See moot court.)
However, in our modern legal system, a moot point is considered:
-inapplicable (for whatever reason,) irrelevant
-automatically an unacceptable argument
-definitely not up for debate in the courtroom: considered a waste of the court’s time & resources
-embarrassing if relied upon, as the atty didn’t do their homework
NOT to be confused with a moot point:
“Mute” means silent. A moot point is not discussed: it’s already understood & automatically accepted legally, so it doesn’t need to be addressed. It’s a given.

Get the moo pointmug. A resource from the japanese playing card game Yu-Gi-Oh. They start at 800 and if they drop to zero you lose the duel.
Life Points can also be used for card costs and maintenance. Two card examples are Solemn Judgment (One-time payment of half of your current) and Imperial Order (700 LP per turn or the card is destroyed).
A few monsters' offensive and defensive stats are also dependant on LP. Two examples based on your own LP are Meklord Emperor Granel and the Dinomorphia monsters. One example taking the opponent's LP as attack is Endless Decay (when summoned, ATK = half of the opponent's LP).

Duelist A: I discard Ash Blossom & Joyous Spring to negate your Maxx "C".
Duelist B: Chain Link 2, I activate Solemn Judgment and pay the Life Point cost to negate your Ash Blossom.
Duelist A: Chain Link 3, I activate Seven Tools of the Bandit by paying 1000 Life Points to negate your Solemn Judgment.
Duelist B: Motherf... I don't have a response.

Get the Point Clare public schoolmug. The point in time at which, after someone dies, no living person remembers that individual anymore. The amount of time for this takes occur varies from person to person; and depends on how popular they were and how many close friends and family they have.
Charlie was very popular and well liked. It will take them many years before they reach the forgotten point. Joe was not as well known; so he will reach the forgotten point sooner than Charlie will.
