A frame-killer is any action or element in a software that causes abnormal stress on the hardware, thus causing the frame rate of the application to visibly drop below normal levels for the duration of the action/element.
It is a common term used in video games, since there are usually commonly recurring elements across games that can cause the frame rate to undergo a visible drop. Such elements include explosions, fire, water, hair and fur, and various onscreen clutter.

Jordan: I love playing fire-based characters in video games, I just love watching flames and explosions because they're so pretty.
James: Ahh, so you like frame-killers.

Get the Frame-killer mug.In fighting games, a frame trap is when you force your opponent into a situation where they have no way of escaping your next attack. It can be done by attacking twice quickly, so that if they try to punish or I-frame the first attack, they get hit by the second.
"Do you know why I'm mad?"
"Woah, nice frame trap!"
(If you know why, they wonder why you haven't done anything about it yet, but if you don't know, they'll then get mad at that. There is no way to avoid the attack.)

Get the Frame Trap mug.When religious people try force others who do not share in their beliefs to make shows of respect for their beliefs anyway.
Tom: “Bible” is a proper noun in this context, by the way. Mistakes in capitalizing proper nouns are a pet peeve of mine that I trust you’ll be willing to work with.
Steve: Is this really about grammar? Or is it about trying to compel me to accept your frame of reverence?

Get the Frame of Reverence mug.A term used in Baseball. When the catcher swipes his glove closer to the strike zone when catching a pitch to make the pitch seem more like a strike than it actually was. Usually used to trick umpires into believing a ball was a strike, therefore cheating the call.
