The Bill Gates Challenge

If Bill Gates gets a .44 magnum, shoves it in his mouth, and blows his brains out the back of his head live on air, Alex Jones will follow suit the next day; also live on air. Challenge can also be completed by dumping a bucket of gasoline onto oneself (akin to the ALS ice bucket challenge), strapping TNT onto your body, and lighting yourself on fire.

Ability-Gated Exploration Platformer

An ability-gated exploration platformer (AGEP) is a genre term for a video game that is heavily based around exploration and non-linearity, with certain areas generally inaccessible without upgrades or new unlockable abilities.

The game space is often open-world or semi-open, and involves encountering obstacles that the player cannot usually overcome without later backtracking. This is the generic term for the genre more popularly known as "Metroidvania" or "Zeldavania."
