credit-feeding

The act of repeatedly continuing in an arcade video game solely to complete it (usually a 2D shooter where the player's ship or character respawns on the spot instead of being returned to a checkpoint), which on a real machine can only be accomplished by inserting lots of coins - hence the "credit-feed".
But it's a very unprofessional way of gaming as opposed to learning and memorizing the levels, and often comes with the penalty of having one's score reset to 0 every time he or she continues.

Furthermore, to make things even worse... the ability to continue is lost once the final level or final boss is reached in some titles - particularly those made by Taito and SNK!
Joe bribed his way to victory by credit-feeding in Takumi and Capcom's Giga Wing and called it an accomplishment; but this prompted his friend (a seasoned gamer), to slap him in the face.

Feeding the Birdy

Getting really drunk at a party, throwing up all over someone, and then making out with them covered in puke, like when a mother bird feeds her children puke.
I thought the party was going to suck because I was so drunk, but then me and some girl did something called "Feeding the Birdy."
