Rule Zero

When you're trying to figure out whether doing something is a good idea or not, there are various rules that come in to play, such as Have Fun, Do No Harm, Have Fun (again), What Happens in Vegas, etc.

Rule Zero, the rule that always comes before all the others, the most important, basic rule of doing anything is: "Don't be on fire."
- I can't get this bbq to light.
- Here, use some petrol.
- I am not breaking Rule Zero to cook a burger.

--
- Hey, let's see what happens if I fill my foreskin with lighter fluid and light it.
- I am invoking Rule... wait... yeah, go ahead, that'll be funny.

A6M "Zero"

The most famous Japanese aircraft of WWII, codenamed "Zeke" It first saw action in China in late 1940 and quickly became the unmatched ruler of the air until 1943. It was extremely light and agile but had weak weapons and no armor. It carried two 7.7mm machineguns in the engine cowling and two 20mm cannons on the wings.

It could easily destroy anything the allies had until the F4U "Corsair" and F6F "Hell Cat" appeard in 1943. From that point on it lost its place as the dominant aircraft of the Pacific and by 1945 the Zero was outclassed and outdated.

It came in many variants, most of them improving the engine.

zero tolerance

Meant to be taken as a strong deterrent against breaking a rule, as the consequences will be severe, however, often zero tolerance is an idle threat and one or even two tolerances are actually implemented.
The school claimed that there would be a zero tolerance alcohol policy, but the football players only had to serve one detention.

Expansion pack to Command and Conquer: Generals. Very good game, but some people obsess over it and are really gay.

Coke Zero

Carbonated beverage introduced by Coke around 2004, claimed to taste the same as regular Coke, with no calories or sugar, and made with the new sweetener Splenda. Arguably tastes not better than Diet Coke, but just has a different aftertaste.

This product was created in part for the new generation of soft drinks in America, as the cola companies phase out the term "diet" on all sodas, because of the taboo it evokes in preference for the term "zero" or "free"
"You drinking Diet Coke fatty?"
"No, its Coke Zero you ass."

Zerogender

You know those people who just don't know how to act like a boy or girl? It doesn't mean gay but what it does mean is. You, either don't know how to be feminine or masculine... or you're just uncomfortable doing so.
Girl- "Oooh honey, prom is next month! What you gonna wear and who you gonna take?"

Zerogender- "Ummm,"

Girl- "Well don't you like any boys here?"

Zerogender- "Some of them.... but uhhhh,"

Girl- "It's almost like you don't know how to be a girl!"

Zerogender- "I really don't..."
