Facial Filter

A form of facial control one wishes they had because their facial reaction gives away their true feelings before they get a chance to speak.
If only he turned on his facial filter when she asked if her dress made her look too fat.

Gribble Filter

(grĭb′əl fɪltə)

See Gribble flange

n.

A particulate filter is a device composed of fibrous materials which removes solid particulates such as dust, pollen, mould, and bacteria from the air. This type of filter is used in applications where air quality is important, notably in building ventilation systems and in engines.

A Gribble filter is such a device, but designed or positioned specifically by the manufacturer in a location that causes the maximum amount of dirt to accumulate in the filter, causing the Gribble flange effect to kick in: A correctly located filter may require renewal every 24 to 36 months. A Gribble Filter gets dirty in weeks, and is usually so well hidden or difficult to replace that the user continues to breathe in filthy unfiltered air so that they don't have to pay a technician to find and replace the costly Gribble element.

Formerly seen as a money grabbing device to benefit the manufacturer, now seen by Gen Y as no more than a friendly reminder that whatever the device is filtering, it's about time we had a new one. With a snazzy corporate logo on it. In a different colour.
Ted: 'What's that filthy thing in your hand ?'

Bill: 'The Gribble filter from my car. It failed early as anticipated, and the car is now in the shop for repairs. Hope they forget to reset the Gribble Flange timer chip.'

Flat-Earth Filter

The double-secret, government-mandated modification applied to all video/photographic equipment installed on vehicles capable of reaching an altitude above 40,000 feet, the upper limit of commercial aircraft; this, in an attempt to sustain the global 'spheroid earth conspiracy'.
Ok. If anyone actually contends that the earth is flat based on their fucked up religious doctrines, the opinions of some crack-pot pseudo-science bullshit or weak-ass arguments of incompetent YouTube fanatics...they're just wrong. Do some spherical geometry; construct a 'triangle' on a spherical surface and measure the sum of the angles. Greater than 180? Wonder what that means...stick the flat-earth filter up yer ass.
