Known to EMTs and paramedics, an individual who calls 911 often for an ambulance. The caller may be a mental patient or one who seeks attention or a ride to the hospital where he/she will acquire free food, air-conditioning in the summer, or pain medications. Occasionally, a frequent flyer is an individual who has a serious ongoing medical problem but doesn't take care of him/herself and frequently becomes ill to the point where 911 must be summoned.
Mrs. Jones is one of our frequent fliers; we've responded to her house at least once a shift for the past two months.

Every call we get from the public phone at Main and Oak Street is from a frequent flyer.

It's what you get when you're listening to a station on a certain frequency, and you get two radio stations who both use that frequency at the same time. One signal is stronger than the other, then it changes so the other is stronger. This just keeps on happening and is called a 'frequency fight'.
"Dude, frequency fight imminent."
"Dude, change the station will you?"

A person who frequently asks stupid questions and expects a serious answer.
"Hey, we have a basketball game tonight at 6."
"Oh...is that in the morning or afternoon?"

"I lost my wallet."
"Oh. Do you know where it is?"

These are common examples of frequent brain farters.

Frequency Delusion

Share definition
Playing off the name of a cognitive bias, frequency illusion, where instead of seeing something all the time after people first notice it, they see whatever is on their mind everywhere they look. Like reading between the lines and assuming there’s a nazi message or some kind of hate speech embedded somewhere when there in fact is not.
“Every time I use a jigger in a cocktail recipe, that tranny thinks I’m calling shim the n-word!” “Typical frequency delusion right there!”

A variable-frequency drive (VFD, or adjustable-frequency drives, adjustable-speed drives, variable-speed drives, AC drives, micro drives, inverter drives, or drives) is a type of AC motor drive (system incorporating a motor) that controls speed and torque by varying the frequency of the input electricity. Depending on its topology, it controls the associated voltage or current variation.

A rash, scab, cut, or pain of the penis that is NOT STD related. It is merely a rash, burn, skin tear, or scab from repeated use of the penis during a period of time without allowing the penis proper rest. Mainly from excessive masturbation, having an inexperienced girlfriend, a sex crazed girlfriend, or having sex with a dry grandma.
When you think you have something similar to an STD but you know it is impossible (you are not getting any)... Thank god... some peace of mind, it is merely Frequency Burn!
