Operation Medical Libraries

A non-profit organization whose mission is to collect and distribute current medical textbooks and journals to war-torn countries through a partnership with American medical schools, hospitals, and physicians and the United States military.

Operation Medical Libraries will significantly enhance the initial and continuing medical education of healthcare professionals in communities crippled by the lack of materials, with which to teach, learn and provide healthcare of all kind.

operatic

1) of or relating to opera.

2) melodrama so ridiculous that it requires opera music for heightened effect.

Last night's weigh-in on the Biggest Loser was such an operatic moment.

"OMG, I can't find my purple earrings that match my shoes. This party is going to be a disaster!"
"Baby, now you are just being operatic."
"YOU ARE SO UNSUPPORTIVE! YOU NEVER LOVED ME!..."

operational drunk

The level of intoxication needed to perform routine tasks once again, usually following a hangover.

Man, I got lit up last night. I can't even think this morning, time to get operational drunk.

Operation Duct Tape

Fixing defenses by any means of throwing down the most pitiful excuse for an obstacle, giving just enough time to distract & deal with the enemy.

"oh, shit!! The Ogres destroyed the blockades! Operation Duct Tape!!"

Operation Martian Freedom

Dick Cheney's next attempt at extending defense contracting; tricking us into thinking Mars has alien terrorists, then using space weapons to colonize the red planet for enriched uranium or oil.

"Hey bro, they found et's with weapons of mass destruction on the dark side of Mars!"

"Bitch please, Operation Martian Freedom is about nothing but using tax dollars to facilitate mining."

Operation Slow-mo

When someone is always slow, sluggish and tardy. In a crisis they still maneuver like they are wearing medieval plate armor, and generally have the agility of a tractor with a missing wheel.
operation slo-mo

Don: 'Why the HELL haven't we finished this production yet?!'
Gibbo: 'Operation Slow-mo over there is doing his tortoise impression again.'
Don: 'Bloody hell, he's not even morbidly obese the guy's just in a permanent daze. His mum must be a starfish and his dad a freakin statue! You're fired, land porpoise.'
Land porpoise: 'It just looks like I'm going slow!'
Gibbo: 'WTG Captain Obvious. It's looks like that to everyone else too.'

overanswer

The slightly narcissistic tendency of someone to provide a long winded answer when asked an information enquiry. The question only requires a simple answer but the overanswerer will tell a personal story or anecdote they believe provides context for they're opinion.

I wanted to know the time but his overanswer included all the steps needed to build a watch.
