Citation Nazi

Someone who demands citation for everything. A Citation Nazi will require you to provide sources of reference for your own original inventions, widely accepted knowledge, and even for your self-reflections.

I wrote in my physics term paper that the Earth revolves around the Sun. My professor returned it asking to provide citations. He wanted my friend to cite a source for her statement "I believe aliens live among us". Such a Citation Nazi!

citation

1. The weapon of schools to attempt to defend against plagiarism by saying where things come from, thus eliminating original thought.
2. A very fast jet made by Cessna.

1. "I'm just gonna make up a few citations for the report." (Because quantity always matters over quantity anyways)
2. "Holy crap! Your grandma was drivin' faster than a Citation X!"

Coating the Penny Horse

This British phrase was originally to describe the act of painting a fresh coat of paint on a small china horse, often found in bric-a-brac / jumble sales and charity shops. The phrase is now primarily used to describe going for a messy poo on a cheap toilet.

"Our John's been busy coating the penny horse this morning."

"By gum, that curry last night were right dodge -- I've got to coat the penny horse, I'll be back in half-hour."

Citations

References to a body of work for which the author is credited. It's how you would determine the quality of, say, a piece of psychological literature.

Hym *buzzer noise* "WRONG!!! Just because you are trying to collectively deny me the credit half does not mean that you get to ignore the 'reference' half of the citations. To say that it is decent is to lie blatantly. It is objectively and quantifiably good. I also have people adopting my mode of being and banging your daughter and more famous than everyone. HAHAHAHAHA! OBJECTIVITY! It's great for when petty cowards try to deny you! How many references? How many citations? Do I have more than Dr. Buss? Do I have more than him? Hahaha!"
