resistance is futile

1. In Star Trek, part of the standard message used by the Borg when they encounter an alien race they intend to assimilate into their collective.

2. In other uses (such as gaming), uttered by somebody about to launch what they believe to be an all-out and unstoppable attack against an opponent with the intent of conquering/defeating them in one fell swoop. Only to be used if you want to announce your presence.

3. Also used by a victor just after having utterly crushed an opponent.
1. WE ARE THE BORG. LOWER YOUR SHIELDS AND SURRENDER YOUR SHIPS. WE WILL ADD YOUR BIOLOGICAL AND TECHNOLOGICAL DISTINCTIVENESS TO OUR OWN. YOUR CULTURE WILL ADAPT TO SERVICE US. RESISTANCE IS FUTILE.

2. Player 1: "Well, I've got your forces surrounded. You're going to die now. Resistance is futile"

Player 2: "Oh, we're boned"

3. Spoinkenstein just headshot Cheezsandwich for the 10th time in a row.

jock strap respiration

The act of after a physical sporting event (football, lacrosse, etc.) taking your protective cup out of its jock strap and creeping up behind an unsuspecting teammate and placing it forcefully over their nasal passages and mouth. Immediatly after doing so, the victim is tackled to the ground and the cup will be held on for as long as possible until the victim fights himself off from the grapple.

Post attack, the victim is especially angry and considered extremely dangerous. Keep distance and seek shelter.

Maximum effect achieved on a hot, humid day after a long practice, in which the cup will reek of a putrid smell and be oddly moist.

Shortly called "JSR" or more commonly "The Cupface."
Paco gave Joe the worst jock strap respiration move I've ever seen in my life after lax let out yesterday.

uk resistance

Great British website using the style of 'Old Games Journalism' to highlight issues in the gaming community using the art of humour. An excellent site, though not as funny as it used to be, thanks to some whore named Teela.
That UK Resistance was brilliant till that Teela spastic started writing rubbish all over it

Resistentialism

Resistentialism is a humorous theory to describe "seemingly spiteful behavior manifested by inanimate objects." In other words, a war is being fought between humans and inanimate objects, and all the little annoyances objects give people throughout the day are battles between the two.

The term was coined by humorist Paul Jennings in a piece titled "Report on Resistentialism", published in The Spectator in 1948 and reprinted in The New York Times.

The slogan of Resistentialism is "Les choses sont contre nous" -- "Things are against us"
Cases of Resistentialism:

Missing car keys: they have moved of their own accord and by means quite unobservable in order to spite you... Resistentialism!

When a bouncy ball escapes down the road: it may seem innocent but the ball knows all too well that the centre of the spectacle is that poor chap grasping helplessly in its wake... Resistentialism!

Be on the watch my fellow humans!
