Net Neutrality

The idea that the interwebs are neutral territory belonging to no government. Under net neutrality, all internet access should be treated equally free from censorship, throttling, or any other disruptive actions that diminish freedom of expression or freedom of usage preventing corporate monopolies.

The FCC wants to destroy net neutrality and give giant cable companies control over the Internet.

Neurosis

A mild form of mental illness, in which subjective experiences of emotional distress are common but contact with reality has not been lost. Examples include anxiety disorders, depression and eating disorders. It is also called psychoneurosis.

Neurosis can in many ways be distinguished from the more severe psychotic mental disorders, such as schizophrenia and manic depression (bipolar).

Neurotypical syndrome

Neurotypical syndrome (a.k.a. NT,also known as arrogant mob syndrome, or Microsoft Windows Syndrome) is a life-long and serious mental disorder affecting people everywhere. Symptoms include inflated ego, mob formation, readiness to follow idiots, and possibly the formation of a large goiter. Persons afflicted with this disorder should be referred to as persons with Neurotypical syndrome, persons with NT or persons who have NT. Though it seems that most persons with NT would prefer to be referred to as neurotypicals, NTs or even normals, nobody cares about their opinions.

Although Neurotypical Syndrome is a serious, lifelong mental condition, persons with NT can live happy, long, successful lives with the help of therapy, provided that the therapist is an aspie or autistic. Through many sessions, they may overcome some of their many debilitating handicaps and become more akin to an autistic. In a few cases, NTs have been rumored to have reached near the level of an aspie, but said claims have not been confirmed...........This explains why autistic people have more intelligence than neurotypicals. Neurotypicals are dumber and stupid. So glad.

Neurotoxin

A substance used to flood Enrichment Centers. Usually deadly.

Good news. I figured out what that thing you just incinerated did. It was a Morality Core they installed after I flooded the enrichment center with a deadly neurotoxin to make me stop flooding the enrichment center with a deadly neurotoxin. So get comfortable while I warm up the Neurotoxin Emitters.

Neurotypical Syndrome

Also known as a non-autistic person i.e. a person who doesn't have autism. Neurotypical syndrome has a high prevalence in the population, to the extent it is often considered normal. Hence, the inclusion of the term 'typical' in the naming of the syndrome.
Neurotypical syndrome has been defined by Steve Silberman as a neurobiological disorder characterised by preoccupation with social concerns, delusions of superiority, and obsession with conformity. There is no known cure.

Chris drinks beer because Big Terry drinks it, even though Chris doesn't like the taste of beer. This appears to be symptom of neurotypical syndrome.
