A term coined by Michael Stevens of Vsauce, Boil-o is an invisible, undetectable, unverifiable/unfalsifiable substance that appears whenever things begin to boil. While, yes, the phenomenon of boiling is perfectly explained without Boil-o, Boil-o is still there.
Boil-o is used as an example of redundancy. If a phenomena is perfectly explained without something, why include the something?

Get the S t to o asmug. O. Z. stands for being overzealous, a brain disorder. Those afflicted do not know when to stop - planning a party down to the most minute detail, decorating a room or giving an endless stream of gifts on Christmas when a few would more than suffice.

Z. out of control.
