A term used in a boarding school at night after on beds and lights out. If in any case, your dorm is being loud, disruptive or naughty and you hear a teacher coming down the hallway, or you get some form of a vibe that one is coming, you shout this word to alert your dorm that the teacher is coming. It must be said loud enough so that your dorm can hear but quiet enough that the teacher can't hear.

The safeguarding of Earth and other worlds from biological cross-contamination (i.e. billionaires with too much time on their hands).
Also known as “planetary protection.” Planetary protection / quarantine “reflects both the unknown nature of the space environment and the desire of the scientific community to preserve the pristine nature of celestial bodies until they can be studied in detail.”
There are two types of interplanetary contamination. Forward contamination is the transfer of viable organisms from Earth to another celestial body. Back contamination is the transfer of extraterrestrial organisms, if such exist, back to the Earth's biosphere.

Billionaires are having a dick swinging space race while the earth experiences record breaking heatwaves that cause sea creatures to literally cook inside their shells. We need planetary quarantine.

In S&M it's a practice in which the slave behaves as a dog: i.e. wears a collar and leash, eats and drinks from a bowl, crawls around on all fours, spends time in a kennel, etc. Woof!

Cain was the kind of guy who would have a German shepard and a shepard's cane, if not another kind of canine if he were a real person and not someone to reference to in life.
