Get the Thirsty-Drivemug. Friend 1: Dude, this retard was driving all willy neely like. Pissed me off.
Friend : Dude, he was jerk driving.

Get the Jerk Drivingmug. Imagine a microscopic web that spans the entire cosmos. An intergalactic ecosystem. An infinite number of roads leading everywhere."
– Gabriel Lorca, 2256 ("Context Is for Kings")
The displacement-activated spore hub drive, commonly shortened to spore drive or s-drive, was an organic propulsion system the Federation experimented with during the 2240s and 2250s. The technology used mycelium spores harvested from Prototaxites stellaviatori to jump or leap across the mycelial network. During such jumps, the ships were not in normal space but in the mycelial plane. (DIS: "Context Is for Kings", "Choose Your Pain")

Mycelium spores
P. stellaviatori mycelium spores, key to the drive technology
The spore drive was based on the ideas of two colleagues and friends, Paul Stamets and Straal, who had been working on the concept since 2244. They were eager to get to the "veins and muscles" that held the galaxy together.
Their research was based on the insight that at a quantum level, there was no difference between biology or physics, and specifically that spores were not only the progenitors of panspermia, but also the building blocks of energy across the universe. This allowed Stamets and Straal to approach physics as biology. As such, the equations involved were reminiscent of both quantum astrophysics and biochemistry.

Get the redneck drive bymug. A person whom farts near others and then simply walks on or out of the room, leaving the stinky aftermath and avoiding blame.
Can be called a DBF for short.

Dave: Nah it was Adam, he's such a Drive-By-Farter.

Get the Drive-By-Fartermug. To vomit kneeling in front of the bowl of a toilette. Because you are holding the bowl with your hands, it looks like you are driving a bus.
