Squib load

A defective round of ammunition that lacks sufficient power to force the projectile out of the barrel of a firearm.

Indicators of a squib load may include: little to no recoil, gasses directed back toward the shooter, or failure to cycle another round.

If you experience a squib load, point your firearm in a safe direction, and ensure that it is unloaded. Use a cleaning rod to push the projectile out of the barrel.

Never attempt to fire another round to force the stuck projectile out. This will create pressures that your firearm is not designed to tolerate, and will damage your firearm, and likely result in injury or death.

While shooting, I experienced a squib load. I tried shooting another round to force it out of the barrel. My gun exploded so now I'm missing fingers and my right eye.

tapping the squid

"tapping the squid" - v. - to partake in the ingestion of a downer in combination with the consumption of alcohol to promote a blackout. Frequently the "squid" (as it is called) takes the form of a muscle relaxer or a pain killer. This term was popularized by Episode 11 of the second season of the popular show "Huff" when the main character was asked to drink a mysterious blue drink (which was derived from the aquatic animal) and ended up hallucinating wildly in the back room of the establishment with a "lady of the night"
"Hey fellas, I'm bored, I think it's time to start tapping the squid."
"Are you sure that is a good idea? Last time we broke out the squids, you ended up with a gap-toothed ghetto hag"

Useless as a damp SQUID

SQUID is the acronym for a superconducting quantum interference device. It measures very small magnetic fields and is rendered useless when wet due to its very sensitive nature. Also, used as a massive Fuck You to all those pedant bitches who think it should be "squib". I mean, just who do you think you are? A 16th century musketeer?
