An Ottawa Line is a group of people with no discernible organization despite them all attempting to perform the same task. It can also be used to describe a moment of chaos.
The term was coined while writing a Sociological Observation paper.

Get the fine linemug. When someone claims they are doing/ have done, something embarrassing, original and or a bit sketchy and you know a lot of people that have previously done this. (Including yourself) say back of the line to let them know they are not the first.

Get the Back of the linemug. Cartography: curved, gradient transparent lines that connect a portion of a small scale map, to a larger scale inset map.
On this map of Grand Canyon’s North Rim, I used transparent “swoosh lines” to link the inset map to the main map.
