Damping Factor

Damping factor
The ability of an amplifier to control the movement of a subwoofer — the higher the damping factor, the greater the accuracy. Damping factor is calculated by dividing the subwoofer impedance by the output impedance of the amplifier. An amplifier's damping factor will decrease as the sub's impedance decreases — that's why an amp running at 4 ohms will provide tighter bass than at 2 ohms. This spec is not always given for all amplifiers.

bastard factor

A scale (1 to 10) that describes the likelihood of a vicious old person calling someone a bastard for little or no reason.
I asked the neighbor to keep her dog off my lawn, and she called me a bastard. Wow! That's crazy -- she must have a bastard factor of at least 7.

Ripple Factor

The process of knocking a the dominant "Doer" over while intercourse. This happens when the "Doer", man or woman with strap-on, is having intercourse doggy style with a large individual, man in rear or woman in either. The "Doer" thrusts towards the "Taker". The ripple of the force then travels to the takers head and back to the "Doers" thrusting region. The force knocks the "Doer" over and on their back.
George Bush was suprised by the ripple factor when he pounded Rosie O'Donnell doggy style.
