armoured wankball

A far more sensible name for "American Football", a game that rarely involves feet and certainly nothing ball-shaped.
I was arguing with an American over which was better, football or armoured wankball.

Under Armour Mom

An Under Armour Mom is a woman between the age of 25 and 50 (there have been sightings of UAM's up to 65 years old, however) who has children, is currently married or divorced, and thinks she is an athlete. She attends yoga class every now and then, she might even go for a quick jog with her baby in the stroller, or participate in a triathlon "for the challenge" (rides a mountain bike with aero bars, doesn't really know how to swim). Due to her active and healthy lifestyle which makes her better than everyone else, she requires that her clothing express her passion for moderate exercise to her peers. She will regularly spend hundreds of dollars on Under Armour clothing and wears it on a regular basis even when not "training". T-Shirts that say "ATHLETE" on them, or "TRAIN HARD" or "PROTECT THIS HOUSE" are slogans of choice. When it's cold outside, she needs some "Coldgear". When it's hot outside, she seems some "Heatgear". The performance enhancing microfibers help her perform better, whether it be kicking the soccer ball around with her family, or picking up a pizza in her gigantic SUV.

She is a poser.
Some guy: Wow look at all that Under Armour gear that lady just bought, she must be preparing for some serious athletic training in the near future.

Another guy: Yeah, she's so cool. I wish I was an athlete just like her.

Heavy Armour

Heavy Armour is best described as massive armoured fighting vehicles capable of withstanding massive amounts of punishment. The King Tiger of WW2 is a particularly impressive lineage in heavy armour, one of the first timeless designs of defence scientists.
The frontal armour of the King Tiger is reported to have withstood every single round ever fired upon it, a particularly impressive feat of German engineering.
Heavy Armour still has weaknesses in flank and rear facing armour, making it vulnerable to ambush. King Tigers were effective in fighting other armour on the Eastern Front, devastating other armoured brutes.

Infantry with bazookas on the Western Front made short work of the giant, a true David vs. Goliath example.

The bottom line in heavy armour, is only use it when fighting other spires of technological power.

If fighting insurgencies of men on foot, air power is most effective. Heavy Armour is simply a big target to infantry, not only during WW2 but especially today with Asymmetrical Warfare.

Today, most Armour is of the Medium variety, with Heavy Panzers mostly being of the Artillery variety, as they are not required for blitzkrieg assaults. Medium tanks are effective in speed and firepower.

As a defence scientist I continue to analyze and develop tactics capable of leveraging technology against opposition, and encourage the public to fight all forms of government within your nation. Coup d'etat!
Tiger, King Tiger, IS-2, Pershing are WW2 examples.
There was an evolution of further Heavy Armour in Soviet States as well as the NATO counterparts, until the mid 70's when Armour took a backseat to ballistics and air power.
Tanks still play an important role in warfare today but their use is truly for massive warfare, and not the limited engagements our planet is hosting at this time of writing.
Iraq and Afghanistan are both poor fields of conflict for Armour deployment, Insurgents can easily ambush and assault stationary armour.
