The James Maneuver

When a 250 lbs. man who wears baseball hats gets passed the bong in a rotation and takes 50 micro hits over the course of the 5 minutes he hogs it, gets spit all over it and charrs all the weed and then passes it to the next man in the rotation and acts like nothing happened.

Person 1: *Passes the bong to James
James: Executes the classic James Maneuver.

Person 2: That fat bastard just FUCKED the bong.
Person 3: He did The James Maneuver

The Baxter-O’brien Maneuver

When someone pretends that they're a physicists and through their work they determined that we perceive certain frequencies as louder or quieter when the actual loudness of the sound goes up or down.

Wow that guy is using "The Baxter-O'brien Maneuver" He's not a physicists who stumbled upon that phenomenon! That was Harvey Fletcher and Wilden Munson. This guy is just a nerd who lies. I cant believe he's really using The Baxter-O’brien Maneuver

cost-cutting maneuver

A fumingly-sarcastic reference to a shamelessly "sneaky 'n' unethical" (and unfortunately very common!) "buy-pressure" strategy practiced at many hardware/specialty-supplies stores; the ploy consists of a staffperson's hacking off a length from a roll of bulk-product like rope, wire, hose, or cloth, and only **afterwards** informing the customer how much the product is priced per foot, hoping that said customer will then feel obligated to buy the piece "since it's already been cut off the roll".

I once had a totally pathetic "cost-cutting maneuver" tried on me at a bicycle-repair shop --- I needed a rear shift-cable, and so the clerk cut off my required length of cable from the store's bulk roll, without first telling me the super-steep per-foot price or asking me beforehand if I wanted to pay that much. It was only when he actually brought the "ringing up the sale" screen up on the computer that he revealed the astronomical amount that it was gonna cost me --- a whopping SEVEN DOLLARS AND CHANGE! --- for just three or four feet of the cable! Fortunately, I had the "bravery" to just look mildly shocked and hastily remark, "Eeeyewww... that's a lot more than I can afford --- thank you anyway, though. I'll just get one at WalMart instead." Hey, it wasn't MY fault if the salesman had created a harder-to-resell cut piece of cable --- I hadn't asked him to chop me off some of the cable yet, I'd just told him that I needed a replacement shifter-cable, so it wasn't my "responsibility" to now PAY for said cable! He should have told me beforehand how much it would cost per foot, and then asked me if I wanted to buy it before he'd actually hacked the length off the roll!

Maloney Maneuver

Believing so deeply in propaganda and lies to forward an agenda that one lashes out at anyone and everyone who proves one wrong and deceptive.

Did you see that politician melt down and insult everyone he could name? He pulled a real Maloney Maneuver.

eVASEive maneuver

Refers to the strategic actions that Mr. Lodge employed in an (unsuccessful, naturally! :P) attempt to prevent the clumsy accident-prone Archie from bumblingly knocking over his "priceless 'n' super-fragile" antique Ming Dynasty vase: he placed the ultra-vulnerable artifact on a small display-stand away off in the far end of the room, and put an indestructible rubber replica of the vase in the center of the room for Archie to look at instead of the genuine --- and incredibly breakable --- clay urn.

Mr. Lodge smugly gloats to his daughter Veronica about the ingenious eVASEive maneuver he has employed to protect his lovely valuable work of art from the soon-to-arrive-for-a-visit Archie --- "I had a rubber replica made of it; Archie won't be able to break this bouncy duplicate no matter how hard he bumps into it!" Of course, his seemingly-foolproof plan fails miserably (as usual!)... the hapless Archie --- fearing that he'll damage the vase even though it's just a rubber replica --- backs warily away from it and unknowingly blunders straight into the REAL VASE that's sitting on a stool behind him, sending it crashing to the floor and splintering all to pieces. :P
