Terminal Aesthetic

A "design" style by engineers who build interfaces that are characterized by functional minimalism, visual austerity, and an absence of emotional or sensory intelligence. They produce systems that are logically sound but clunky, and unmistakably lacking in experiential refinement.

The term plays on "terminal" in two senses: computational (evoking command-line terminals, where interaction is textual, flat, and unforgiving), and existential (suggesting a kind of design that is lifeless or hostile to organic experience).

All automobile user interfaces seem to have a terminal aesthetic.

terminal jackassery

When a young man deliberately agitates those around him, and cannot seem to exist without doing so.

Woman: Can you believe him? Putting ants in my hair and insisting I violently shake him to wake him up? A textbook case of terminal jackassery.

Terminal Comma

A comma at the end of a comment, clause or even otherwise-perfect sentence that then receives no continuation.

My cousin used the terminal comma when she sent me this text message:

> Wow, grandma didn't invite you to the family get-together,

and then all my cousins and brother went to the movies.
