Ferguson Effect 

The unnecessary delay a Police Officer takes before lawfully taking someone's life. An unnecessary delay that puts an officer in grave danger himself because he is fearful of unjust criticism and scrutiny from the media, critics, citizens, celebrities and politicians, etc. The fear a Police Officer experiences for being wrongly accused of being a racist in a fatal shooting.

That cop almost got wasted because of the Ferguson Effect waiting too long to shoot Jimmy Jones fearing he would be called a racist.

Turd Ferguson 

A name first created in a classic sketch on Saturday Night Live. The sketch was a parody of Celebrity Jeopardy that had Will Ferrell as Alex Trebek, Jimmy Fallon as Third Rock From The Sun's French Stewart, Norm McDonald as Burt Reynolds, and Darryl Hammond as Sean Connery. In fact, the first definition for Sean Connery is a reference to this very sketch. Anyway, the name was created by Burt Reynolds in the sketch.

Alex Trebek: "Apparently Burt Reynolds has changed his name to Turd Ferguson."
Burt Reynolds: "Yeah, Turd Ferguson, it's a funny name."

... later on ...

*Burt Reynolds buzzes in*

Alex Trebek: "Burt Reynolds?"
Burt Reynolds: "Uh, that's not my name."
Alex Trebek: "Okay, Turd Ferguson?"
Burt Reynolds: "Yeah what do you want?"
Alex Trebek: "You buzzed in."
Burt Reynolds: "No, I didn't."
Alex Trebek: "Yes you did."
Burt Reynolds: "Yeah, well that's your opinion."

Smooth move, Ferguson 

A phrase uttered when a person does a particularly silly or clutz-like act. (i.e. tripping, failing a pick-up line)

Used just like "smooth move," "smooth move, Ferguson" gets its origin from the NBC sitcom, 30 Rock in the episode, "Everything Sunny All the Time Always" Where Tracy Jordan wants to be in on the inside joke - "smooth move, Ferguson!"

(Someone just trips over their own foot)

You: "Smooth move, Ferguson!"

Craig Ferguson 

Scottish late-night tv host, who also acts and writes novels. The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson can be seen at 12:35/11:35c on CBS, after Letterman.

Despite not having a band or "A-list" guests, Craig is consistently funny 5 days a week, with improvised monologues, puppets, viewer emails, and sketches. He frequently does sketches about Sean Connery, Michael Caine, and Prince Charles.

Craig has also been in The Drew Carey Show, and has written two novels: Between The Bridge and the River, and his autobiography American on Purpose, which comes out on September 22, 2009.

In my opinion, the best late-night tv show out there.

1. Friend: "Want to come to my house for a party tonight?"
Me: "No thanks, I'll be watching Craig Ferguson"

2. Apartment above me: "Ughhh we can't sleep because they're laughing so loud at Craig Ferguson. Maybe we should watch him.....*turn tv on*......BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA"
