p-hacking

Manipulation of statistics such that the desired outcome assumes "statistical significance", usually for the benefit of the study's sponsors. Usually done by ex post facto choice of significance labels and simple reporting of results as being conclusive regardless of calculated p-value. This depends on the public's general lack of understanding of statistical measures and press non-reportage of details.

Also the basis of nutrition research.

Study: "Soy protein was shown to reduce cancer rates in rats with a p <1.0" (effectively random data)

Next day's headline: "Soy Cures Cancer"

Sales soar 1000%

p-hacking = Profit.

The subtle seduction and concurrent infiltration of the mind of an unscrupulous jerk, to gather the necessary intel to shut him down.

Hecking Honker

Just a word used to insult/swear at someone. Used as a substitute for the word Fricking Franker. Mostly used in gaming as a way to express your anger to an annoying player. This word can also be used in a different context to show anger to an annoying trucker on the road. (Truckers don't take offense, please I'm just trying to show the two different contexts this word can take)

Gaming:

1. What a Hecking Honker, stop camping the base dude
2. Stop being a Hecking Honker dude, you always fucking use traps to kill me

Real-life:
1: Man, this Hecking Honker needs to learn how to drive and stop swerving around and beeping his horn
2: Can this Hecking Honker stop cutting in front of me when I'm in a rush to get to work
