Otherwise known as a Dream, Jellybean, Meowbahh, GeorgeNotFound, or TommyInnit stan, a fatherus missingus is a lost child that doesn't have a father and hasn't touched grass for longer than a Love LIve! fan. A fatherus missingus is more toxic than a box jellyfish, and more annoying than Miku Maekawa.

Get the Fatherus Missingus mug.Usually an inner, large city courier that delivers mail (packages) by bicycle. Can be known as "messenger." Messengers can be found riding fixed gear bicycles (fixie) or any variety of bicycle suit for timely travel. They can be seen with a large "messenger bag" style backpack, radio/cell phone, and bike lock.
Messenger culture includes fashions that are functionable before fashionable, meaning that the styles of clothing messengers tend to wear are suited for purpose and not pleasure. Messengers are exposed to inclement weather including heat, rain, snow, cold, and ice. Pants, if worn as opposed to shorts, may either have the right pant leg or both pant legs rolled up, or cut shorter so as to not get caught in the crankset.
Fixies are usually customized or built from scrap for personalization. It is common to see brightly colored bicycles for visibility purposes. Handlebars may be cut short to produce a narrower, or more streamline messenger so as to allow the rider to pass between vehicles in slower-moving or standing traffic. Brakes may not be present on some fixies, but some city or state laws require it, so messengers may only affix one to the front tire.
Messengers may also be seen taking part in spur-of-the-moment or organized "alley cat" races which simulate the duties of the average day of work. Winners are awarded spoke cards which are placed in the spokes of the rear wheel.

Get the bike messenger mug.Missing stair is an analogy for a person within a social group who many people know is untrustworthy or otherwise has to be "managed", but who they work around by trying to quietly warn others rather than deal with openly.

Get the missing stair mug.An unused block of data in the Game Boy games Pokémon Red Version and Green Version in Japan. (later upgraded into a summarized game called Pokémon Blue Version, which had its code changed slightly and shipped to North America as Pokémon Red Version and Blue Version) The data is read by the game as a Pokémon named MissingNo., or "Missing Number." Apparently used as possible beta testing material or a scrapped idea. A hole in the game data was discovered allowing people to find it in the wild and capture it, causing major glitches and programming errors in the game's coding. It is supposedly Pokémon number 000 in the National Pocket Monsters Index, but is not officially classified.
This soon became the most popular name for any "glitch" Pokémon data found in later games in the series. When Pokémon Yellow Version, the sequel to Red and Blue versions, was released, MissingNo. was not found in the data, and was locked out of the previous games from trading and battling. In the games Pokémon Gold Version and Silver Version, blocks of unused data were found via hacking with cheat devices, but froze the game at certain points. Similar data was found in Crystal Version, the sequel to Gold and Silver Versions, but it all had no use.
When Pokémon arrived on the Game Boy Advance under the titles Pokémon Ruby Version and Sapphire Version, people began hacking the near-perfect coding to find unused or glitched data in the game. Indeed, one such block of data was found. It was Pokémon data labeled "?" and had its own sprites, stats, moveset, and National PokéDex number of 390. It functioned properly as an actual Pokémon And was tradeable. Obviously it was there on purpose, but most suspect it is merely for beta testing, as it had very basic attributes.
When remakes of Red and Green Versions, Pokémon FireRed Version and LeafGreen Version, were released, the very same "?" from Ruby and Sapphire Versions was found in the game data, registered under the same number and stats. It is fully usable once hacked out of the game data, and is tradeable with Ruby and Sapphire Versions. The purpose is still unknown.
The sequel to Ruby and Sapphire Versions, called Pokémon Emerald Version, upgraded from Ruby and Sapphire Versions much like Crystal Version did to Gold and Silver Versions. The "?" has been discovered to be tradeable to it and the same data is stored in the previous GBA games is still in Emerald Version. Nobody knows Game Freak's plan for this data. Perhaps it was merely a beta test and kept in later games for compatability purposes.

Contrary to popular belief, the original "glitch" data for MissingNo. in Pokémon Red and Blue Versions is NOT in the remakes Pokémon FireRed or LeafGreen Versions. The data has since been perfected.
