Mechanical Dynamism

A philosophical or qualitative term describing the inherent tendency of mechanical systems to change, move, evolve, or exhibit complex behavior over time. It's not a formal branch of physics but a way of talking about machines as if they had a kind of life or spirit of motion. A clock has mechanical dynamism in its ticking, a engine in its cycling, a ecosystem in its flows. It captures the sense that even dead matter, when arranged into mechanisms, can produce surprisingly lively and unpredictable patterns of behavior.

Example: "Watching the antique clockwork automata dance, you couldn't help but feel the mechanical dynamism—gears and springs somehow brought to life."

Mechanics Handwasher

Similar to a Handwasher, the art of double fisting in an orifice, moving the hands in an alternating motion to mimick hand washing. But particularly using swarfega as the soap lube of choice.

Finally got chance to try a Handwasher last night but I could only find some swarfega so it ended up a Mechanics Handwasher!

Mechanical Trust Effect

The process of gradually trusting a machine more than your own intuition after it repeatedly demonstrates that it can reliably perform a task you initially believed was beyond its capabilities

I thought my printer would never produce clean parts at 400 mm/s, but after dozens of perfect prints, I experienced the mechanical trust effect

Window Mechanics 

Window Mechanics: When an electrical appliance or piece of technology fails to operate and usually due to insane frustration the user is left with no alternative but to throw it from a high window.

Pissed off techie - "My laptop crashed again last night. I tried everything to get it working again. I ended up using Window Mechanics."

Techie2 - "Looks like you're off the computer Store."

hispanical mechanical 

Slang to refer to a fender with a hispanic (with questionable status). Some hispanic neighborhoods have a tendency to block entire roads over a little fender bender. Thus annoying and impeding the commuters who use that road.

God dammit! I'm gonna be late to work due to this hispanical mechanical in this chicano neighborhood that I pass through. They are blocking the whole road over a fender bender!

Extraphysical Mechanics 

Extraphysical Mechanics, also Extraphysical Mechanics Theory and sometimes simply known as Extraphysics, is a hypothesis and a stance that states that there are extraphysical mechanisms and properties that interact with matter such as there are things beyond matter and physics that interact with matter and physics in a way it's hard to realize but it's possible to realize during spiritual, mystical, esoteric, religious and extraphysical experiences and it's an interaction between the physical body with the extraphysical body where both, physical and extraphysical might be the same thing on different states and levels. Extraphysical mechanics also supports there's an interaction between physics and extraphysics and it's well known for the concepts of extraphysical superposition, extraphysical entanglement, extraphysical mind, extraphysical spirit, physical-extraphysical entanglement of bodies and for the philosophies of extraphysicalism, extramaterialism and extranaturalism. Extraphysical Mechanics is considered a hypothesis and it's considered as an open field and a field that cannot be determined, proved or disproved by natural sciences but something else that should have it's own methods and theories, besides do not be considered as scientific because it's not part of natural sciences but for something called as spiritual sciences, extranatural sciences and even as extraphysical sciences.

"Extraphysical Mechanics is an interesting hypothesis and philosophy, but even it doesn't being scientific at all, it's a nice philosophy and an open field of study and development, such as multiverses actually are."

Ghetto Mechanics 

To fix something like furniture, hardware or your home, with tools that aren’t correct for fixing said thing, but it still works.

“Hey Jim, it turns out I didn’t have to get someone to fix my broken window, I just used my ghetto mechanics.”
