boomerang business model

A business model in which all profits from a good or service are returned to the consumers that generated them, with only compensation for operating costs extracted by the provider of the good or service.

A website based on a boomerang business model generates advertising revenue proportional to user traffic, then returns its profits to its users, keeping only the portion of advertising revenue equal to operating costs.

Boomerang

I like that she did it manually. She a class act. That’s how I do everything. EVERYTHING....

Hym “Oh, no. I didn’t get hacked. I did this intentionally. But, um, on an unrelated note, I should buy a boomerang! I don’t know how else to work the word boomerang into a soliloquy... So... I’ll just do that...”

Boomerang Neighbor

A neighbor or group of neighbors that aren't pleasant to live near. Usually loud obnoxious drug addicts who don't have any consideration for the people they live around. They are loud and unruly in the late hours of night and early AM hours. You get a stroke of luck where you suddenly don't see them for a few months. They might have been sent to jail or elsewhere, but you're just glad they're finally gone and that you can live in peace. But then they suddenly come back out of nowhere, back to their old antics and habits. You then realize their absence was temporary - thus the term "boomerang neighbor."

A neighbor you wish would move elsewhere, but they always end up coming back somehow.

Crap! Is that Courtney pulling up outside? She's the boomerang neighbor! And here I thought we were finally rid of her...
