Stick Drift

Describes an affliction impacting joysticks on gaming controllers.

Stick drift is when a controller’s joysticks act as if they’re being moved, despite being still. This typically occurs when dust and debris get under the joystick and interfere with its sensors.

This occurs with most major console controllers, though the Nintendo Switch joycons have earned the most notoriety for stick drift problems.

DRIFT PRINCIPLE

The idea that when a system optimizes too fast (for efficiency, engagement, or simplicity), the fidelity of meaning drops and reality starts to feel thinner, flatter, or slightly fake. It’s what happens when everything becomes streamlined but nothing feels grounded anymore.
Instagram used to feel real, but now it’s all the same recycled vibe. Total Drift Principle. Compression outran fidelity.”

Multitrack Drifting

When choosing between 2 bad things, electing to do both of them at once; a subversion of the Morton's Fork.

The name is a reference to the Trolley Problem, where you are supposed to choose between letting 4 people tied to the track die and pulling the lever, running over 1 person with the trolley and being directly responsible for their death.
Person 1: "If you had to chose, would you rather kill 2 piglets or 1 puppy?"
Person 2: "Multitrack Drifting."
Person 1: "What the fuck."

Noun

While in the process of giving fellatio, the penis misses the giver's mouth and starts streaking away on the face, sometimes piercing the cheekbone.

Typically occurs when the person giving fellatio is inebriated, exhausted, barely awoken from sleep to perform the act, or otherwise mind-altered by drugs or medication.
