Deadline Drive

The closer you get to a deadline the more motivated you are to complete the assigned work

deadline

The point at which work should held until, and then handed over to others all in one go.

"Shall we pass the orders to traffic and comm prod?"

"nah, deadline isn't till 5pm"

deadline surfing

A deadline is approaching, there is 20 person-days of work to-be-done, and 5 workdays in front of you. While you wade through the doable tasks, more work piles up behind you faster and faster, pushing you towards the deadline. Then, the wave breaks, either you surf straight out of it with confidence and speed (you successfully finish work) or you crash and fall into the whitewater (which experienced deadline surfers call the "stuck inside a washing machine mayhem").

The deadline arrives, washes every crashed surfer on shore, while the experienced riders swim out to catch the next one.

"I love deadlines, I love the sound they make when they swoosh by".
Douglas Adams

"Sorry, can we reschedule to later? I am currently deadline surfing for the deadline tomorrow".

Deadliest Warrior

The show that makes nerds nergasim and then complain about how their warrior didn't win.

A show which pits two warriors from different times against each other.

Some dude- I can't believe the Ninja lost to the Spartan.

Some other dude- Ya but the Deadliest warrior simulation was cool to watch!

dreadicine

This is medicine that people are afraid to take because of side effects like losing sex drive or weight gain.

Mandy chose to not take the dreadicine lithium and instead went manic and got arrested.

dreamling

someone who has a vague dream, it’s not quite a life-goal, but they wouldn’t mind achieving it. people don’t generally take dreamlings seriously in life. this makes them sad, because in their mind, their dreams are serious. however, to others the dreams appear beyond belief.

“she’s a dreamling, her dream is to be a door, it’s ridiculous, dreamlings dream the strangest things!”
