horseshoes, hand grenades, and nuclear war

Even though you missed it by a tiny amount, you still didn't get there.

A time when there is no positive effect, or will be no positive effects, because of your actions".

With horseshoes, hand grenades, and nuclear war, you can miss your target, or goal, but still have some positive effect.

Spermo-nuclear Reaction

The act of placing sperm in a microwave before injection into the uterus, in the hope that the child conceived may grow up to have super powers.
To this day, spermo-nuclear reaction has always ended in dead sperm, but maybe one day, a lucky mother will give birth to Superman.

The Nuclear Word

The n-word is… no no it’s the nuclear word.

When one mixes a large quantity of different types of Tequila and it results in an intense chemical reaction that eventually and inevitably makes the recipient vomit and shit aggressively like nothing they have experienced before.

The chemical reaction takes precisely one hour to occur and affect the recipient. No sooner and no later.
Liam - "Don't drink those desperados mate. You've just had some cherry flavoured Tequila shots."

Adam - "Nah I'm sound me yeno"

1 hour later (on the dot)

Adam - "Arr shit lad I've gotta bail and get the 472 bus home. My stomach isn't feeling too good"

Liam - "Leg it lad! The Timed Tequila Nuclear Explosion (TTNE) is happening now!"

Adam then projectile vomits and shits shortly thereafter.
