schrodinger's creep

When you say something creepy and decided if it was creepy or not depending on if they take it as a complement or get creeped out
Schrodinger's creep is like when someone says "Your legs look really good" and then depending on if it's an awkward laugh then silence or a thank you you would decide if it was creepy or not

Creeping Nukism

Sarcastic term used in the submarine fleet, mostly by forward submariners, to describe the slow takeover of aft “Nukes” and their nerdy engineering culture of nerdism. They over think everything and make life miserable and difficult, unless you’re a Nuke! Nukes are famous for being the golden children of the boat, exhausting procedural compliance to the Nth degree, a requirement culture of working near the reactor and engineering spaces. Besides finding their rack for sleeping or the mess decks for eating, these top tiered Nerds know nothing about the forward half of the boat, control spaces and weapons areas. Junior officers graduating to division officer jobs up forward, try “creeping-nukism” philosophy on such admired and prideful Torpedo Divisions, who put the smack down on such tomfoolery without prompting.
TMSN Shmuckatelli: “Chief, the Div-O wants me to make the weekly training to include a 100 question test, with a matrix for scoring, on a 7 vector scale, 3 calculus problems, a 5 part numbering system, an illustrated prt breakdown of 10 drawings, and definitions to require clinical laboratory expertise beyond normal automation to perform”.

TMC Ragan, “Dont get hoodwinked or bamboozled by the creeping nukism, they work harder to get out of work, instead of just doing the work.”

Tactical creep

A tactical creep is when one is unsure of their situation romantically, whether it be at the start of a relationship, during flirtatious conversation or even 4 years down the line when it's nearly too late to turn back.
This involves using social media to browse through the person's photos, just reassure oneself that what they are about to do/are doing/ or will never do, is satisfactory.
Dean - I had to go on a tactical creep last night.

Owen - Why so?

Dean - Just to reassure myself that the girl I was talking to didn't look like Rocky Dennis.

Owen - That's tactical man.

Dean - Oh yeah.
