Leadersheep

Incompetent executives or management that completely lack creativity and try to follow what the rest of the industry has done and fails at most objectives. This is derived by combining the words leadership with sheep, the idea that sheep are stupid animals that only know how to follow, and the combination is to mock the term leadership.
The leadersheep always talking about automating things, but have no idea to support such efforts.

Back to leadership

To get back to the main topic. Usually used when people get sidetracked a lot and need to understand that the topic is important.

The phrase comes from "Stargate Atlantis" a Sci-Fi channel production where a character, Doctor Rodney McKay, is asked to record a message in front of a camera to his superiors and loved ones. In the first scene he starts talking about "Leadership" and in the beginning of every other scene he gets sidetracked and talks about his girlfriends or his cats. In the end of every scene he says that he need to get back to the main topic he started with. "Back to Leadership."
Boss: So where are we at with that new product?
Employee: Well sir, it's ready and I got to tell you my wife and I tested it, and she just loved it!
Boss: Oh did she?
Employee: She even told all her friends about it and they are all excited.

leadership boner 

noun: A raging boner that a University of Wisconsin - Green Bay student receives upon the membership within one of the many "leadership opportunities" on campus. The leadership boner can result from membership in NRHH, NACURH, GLACURH, RHAA, CAB, Community Council, etc. The degree to which a leader is involved is measured by this boner. The more fully torqued an individual is, the more excited/involved he or she is with leadership opportunities. Presence of the leadership boner indicates that the individual holding the boner is sexually frustrated due to the lack of a sexual partner, or "fuck buddy." Reason being, leadership tends to inhibit a sex life.

Fun Fact:
The size of the leadership boner is also directly related to the amount of state funding wasted on "leadership opportunities." With the increasing size of the boner comes more wasteful spending.
"Mitchell, I noticed that you are fully torqued!"

"Yes, Aaron, indeed I am. I was just nominated for NRHH, and I'm on my way to CAB! All this leadership lately has given me a very full leadership boner."

leadership 

A broad buzzword thrown around so much by every organization everywhere that it has essentially lost all meaning. (i.e. solution in the IT field.) It is normally used by organizations to weed out people who don't think they have 'it'. True leadership is actually an excercise in bullshitting. The amount of bullshit a person can spew back about what leadership truly is, is the best measure of leadership.

Word of the Day on October 28, 2026
A lighthearted reaction upon receiving disappointing news of some sort. Usually something that isn't a particularly a big deal, esp. when it primarily affects someone else - sort of a mild schadenfreude. Sometimes doubled or tripled, and possibly said in a sing-songy voice for added comedic effect to imitate a muted trumpet, which is how the meme originated.

Surf Dracula Syndrome 

A phenomenon in film/television series, most notably streaming series, where the main premise is drawn out to such a point that it takes an entire season or more to get the parts of the series the audience is actually interested in seeing.

For example, if a series is titled "Surf Dracula," a majority of viewers would tune in expecting to see Dracula surfing by the first or second episode. However, the entire first season would instead be tedious padding and backstory before finally ending with Dracula surfing in the last five minutes of the season finale.
I watched "Smallville" on Netflix the other day. Dude, it was ten seasons of filler before he finally flew! Major Surf Dracula Syndrome!
