The nickname given to the Finnish sniper Simo Hayha by the Russians who he caused to metaphorically (or perhaps not metaphorically) wet their pants during the Winter War November 1939–March 1940 by the amount of sheer ass he kicked.
Simo Hayha's hit record was at least 700 kills in under 100 days.

"Dude, Simo Hayha was such a badass!"
"Yeah, the Russians called them the White Death. Scared them shitless."

Get the The White Death mug.In the software development industry, a death march is a dysphemism or description for the end phase of a project when a hard deadline has to be met, often to meet an arbitrary ship date leaked to the press and/or the shareholders. Often if a project is off schedule due to mismanagement (as many are), said management will ask team members to work especially grueling hours, weekends (sometimes with a straight face), or by attempting to "throw (enough) bodies at the problem" with varying results, often causing burnout. It is also common for a developer to subsist on flat food while in the midst of a death march.
Bill Gates: The world wants and our shareholders need Vista by Christmas!
Steve Ballmer: We have had our developers on a perma death march for the last three years to ship it and need a few more monthes.
Bill Gates: Just drop development of all the useful features and leave the annoying ones!

Get the Tea Party Death Squad mug.One of Metallica's greatest songs to date, even tho twas released in 1984 on Ride the Lightning under Megaforce records then later re-released under Elektra. An excellent solo by guitarist Kirk Hammett and equally excellent rhythm guitar and vocals by Jaymz Hetfeild make Creeping Death an all around great thrash metal song.

Get the Creeping Death mug.An album that combines the poetic verses of load and reload with a taste of their earlier thrash style to form a meaningful yet headbanging set of songs that continues Metallica's long tradition of making their own sound and name, much to the dismay of people looking to define them to a certain genre or sound that they prefer.
I listen to Death Magnetic and Metallica because they are good artistically in any sound they choose to play, not just because they play "thrash" or "metal".

Get the Death Magnetic mug.Death is The End of life.
Think of life like a movie and death is when the power surges and blows out the TV. Death is when the film gets so damaged that even if you were to get the electricity back on, the movie will never play again. Alive is only the memory, gone is the spark that made the movie play…or the person alive.
Life is too short and death is too long. You don’t have all the time in the world, so go out and enjoy life as much as you can. Life is like a beautiful flower…flowers fade; people you love either leave you or die. No matter who or what you love it will not last forever, it will come to an end, as all good things do. Death is your final wake up call. Wake up and live before he knocks on your door.
