Slut celebrating

When you celebrate and encourage a woman’s sexual prowess rather than demeaning her for liking sexual intercourse

Person 1: Abbi loves sleeping with professors on the first date.

Person 2: Why are you putting her down? You wouldn’t if she was a man

Person 1: Oh no you didn’t get it! I don’t have an issue with it, I’m slut celebrating her! She should do it more often.

Calibrations

Either an activity that must be done constantly, or something you bring up when you want to subtly tell someone to go fuck themselves.

Shepard: "Hey Garrus, got a minute?"
Garrus: "Can it wait for a bit? I'm in the middle of some calibrations."

calibration

1. The proccess of data acquisition (obtained by comparison against standards) able to anticipate the behavior of someting.
2. The data so obtained.
3. The final report or documentation showing such data.
4. The stage in which someting is regarding the level of its calibration knoledge.

Adjustment is not calibration. When we adjust something we change its behavior (usually to move it closer to standards aiming a better performance); when we calibrate we just understand its behavior so that we can compensate or even adjust it.

impact calibration

The technical terminology for hitting any sort of electronic device to get it to work properly; a solid and punctuated smack or slap.

"Theo noticed the screen on his iPad was slightly scrambled so he quickly implemented the impact calibration principle to the edge of the device. One good smack and the screen was clear as the blue sky on a summer's day.
