Easter-egg code for the original Metroid game, released on the NES. Enables multiple power-ups, Samus without her power suit, and starts player near end-game/Tourian stage. A quick way to finish the game if one wishes to see the ending, but does not have hours to grind through the cleared stages of Brinstar and Norfair. Bottom half of code is completed by filling text field with dashes.
"Originally I liked the NARPAS SWORD code, but it completely removed the challenge from the game. Using JUSTIN BAILEY as a password gave great bonuses to a starting character, but did not grant invincibility or infinite ammunition."
Brought to public attention by Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein in the book on the fall of Richard Nixon, All The President’s Men, ratfucker was Nixon’s term for a political operative who sows chaos among opponents; an agent provocateur. It is thought to have originated among campus political rivalries at USC, and seems to have some usage in the US military.
Along with Nixon’s other ratfuckers, Roger Stone caused fights at otherwise peaceful Democratic Party protests to generate a false narrative that the Democrats were violent and dangerous.
Term used to describe someone who is a mix of both rural (country) and urban (metropolitan) lifestyles/upbringings. He/she is typically equally comfortable in both settings and is able to seamlessly slip back and forth between the two, appreciating the characteristics of each.
