Accelerative Disruptionism

A school of thought aiming to accelerate the technologization of the human environment actively and aggressively replaces any aspect, sometimes in a very personal way and other times by influencing other people's lives. According to the theory, this is because human civilization is lagging and not as mature as it should be by now.

There are multiple possible motivations for such a movement:

1. Make the future look like the future: Cool, clean and efficiant.
2. Destroying old institutions or companies by introducing changes to spending habit.
3. Enhancing life conditions and the environment using technology.

For all practical purposes, it plans to replace aspects of life that are obsolete, mostly material.
Person 1: Hey, I finally installed Linux on my PC.
Person 2: That's quite an Accelerative Disruptionism move.
Person 1: I truly believe that Open-Source is the future, even if it takes 100 years.

Person 1: The government will raze 1 square kilometer of the old neighborhood to build a new super modern one with a light rail station.
Person 2: Sheesh...

I don't buy the schmegegge about Morty sleeping with Moira.
His version of the story was pure schmegegge.
The whole schmegegge was made up to get Liz a little bit of attention.

"That's good eye bleach."

Noun. Portmanteau of "street" and "road": it describes a street, er, road, built for high speed, but with multiple access points. Excessive width is a common feature. A common feature in suburbia, especially along commercial strips. Unsafe at any speed, their extreme width and straightness paradoxically induces speeding. Somewhat more neutral than synonymous traffic sewer.
Did you see what the traffic engineers want to do to our street? They're going to turn it into a total stroad!
