Get the Accostly mug.Often present in Corporate America, Downhill Accountability is the blame game in conjunction with the idea that stuff rolls downhill.

President: "Sales are down 8%"
Vice President: "The sales team needs to get their stuff together"
Sales Team Manager: "Our Administrative Assistant has failed to provide bid documents to account managers in a timely fashion."
Admin Assistant: "FML. The color printer is broken, we're out of binders, and they always wait till hours before their deadlines to submit their bid docs for assembly. I guess that's downhill accountability for you"

Get the Home Access mug.A large railgun type weapon frequently used in the Halo universe. Sizes vary, from a handheld one shot anti-personnel weapon, to the main weapon of most of the frigates, destroyers, cruisers, etc (e.g UNSC Pillar of Autuum) to the largest, most powerful type, the "Super MAC", a massive railgun mounted on a space station capable of firing its projectiles at speeds close to 4% the speed of light. (e.g. Cairo Station, Halo 2). Said projectiles are made from extremely dense metals, such as depleted uranium, and despite the disadvantage of having to charge the weapon for every shot, the sheer kinetic impact velocity of these projects can do extreme damage to most targets.
