Russian Bias

The phenomenon in Gaijin Entertainment's 2012 game War Thunder in which Russian tanks, aircraft, and naval ships receive unfair and unhistoric "buffs" to their effectiveness at a certain battle rating. For example, it has been found that Russian tanks have a significantly higher chance of over penetrating a target, and are less likely to suffer an ammunition explosion when the ammo rack is hit. Many players dismiss this as players of other nations being salty or not good, which may be true for some in American or German tanks, but that doesn't negate the reality of this phenomenon

Confirmation Bias

The natural human tendency to hold opinions that agree with one's own point-of-view as more valuable than opinions that do not. However, this can be magnified to an insane proportion in ignorant people, overly-religious people, people who have power, people who think they have power, people on a power trip, and people who hate criticism in general. This may stem from a fear of change, what one does not know, or from an OD god complex.

itsy-bitsy

Itsy-bitsy comes from the word "ici-pici", which is used in Hungary to tiny, small things. It was taken into the US (to Holywood) by a Hungarian film director in the early 20th century. Then he used it in everyday life and stuck to others. This is the one and only Hungarian word that was adopted to English.
In Hungary you can also say: "iciri-piciri" (this means smaller than "ici-pici").
