Kertalaw

A move performed on suspects by law enforcement to determine if they are innocent or guilty. If the suspect taps out, they are proven guilty and must go to jail. The more evidence found against the suspect, the longer they have to have the move administered and the shorter the count.

kerbal

Describes a launch vehicle that is built by strapping together existing components, such as booster rockets or additional stages. It is a reference to the Kerbal Space Program, "create and manage your own space program", which allows players to build custom rockets in exactly that way.
"I would say that of all the new vehicles described here, the Omega is easily the most kerbal since it's just a bunch of parts strapped together." (Scott Manley, "New Glenn, OmegA and Vulcan Get Air Force Approval", YouTube, October 11, 2018, 6:38.)

the Kerbal way

Rather than by using finesse or ingenuity, solving a complicated problem by throwing epicly massive resources to brute force a solution.
Elon Musk: "At first, I was thinking we would just scale up Falcon Heavy, but it looks like it probably makes more sense just to have a single monster boost stage."
Skov: "Nice to see you are doing things the Kerbal way."
Elon Musk: "Kerbal is awesome!"

Karbala

Karbala is a city in Iraq. It was also the place of an important battle in Islamic history between Imam Hussain (the grandson of the Prophet Muhammad) and Yazid. Hussain had only 72 companions with him versus Yazid's thousands of trained warriors. In the aftermath, Hussain's army was slaughtered. Imam Hussain's sacrifice for justice and truth is looked upon and adored by many around the world. The event is held in high esteem among the Shia and is commemorated every year during Ashura.
