Damage Limitation 

Damage limitation means actions you take to limit or offset the damaging effects of an accident or error. Well that’s the official line anyway, but in most cases what it means is the person responsible for the fuck up Running around like a striped ass ape in order to cover their own ass and prevent any of the shit flying around from sticking to them.
Camilla Batmanghelidgh’s idea of damage limitation is to cover her own fat ass and blame everyone else.

Post-Limit

(Most Common on tumblr.com)

The post-limit is the worst possible thing that could ever happen to the common Tumblr addict. After a user posts what Tumblr finds as "too much" pictures, videos, music, etc. they will reach their Post-Limit. At first, users will usually think, "What?" and after recovering from Post-Limit Shock, they will most likely be angry. A way to bypass this is, have the user go to their settings, and change their timezone to somewhere that is one day ahead of them.
User: Aw shit, I reached my Post-Limit.

Michigan speed limit 

The speed at which a cop won't pull you over in Michigan. Usually 5-10mph over the posted speed limit on main roads and 15-20mph over the posted speed limit on highways. If you don't maintain this speed you will have a line of cars behind you, each within three feet of the car in front of them. If you feel like driving under the posted speed limit and the weather conditions are anywhere near decent, then you better just pull over and let people pass you.
Mike: Hey dude, you're going way too fast, slow it down.
Nick: Naw it's alright, the Michigan speed limit on this road is 65.
Mike: Yeah I know, but you're doin' 90.
Nick: Oh. Yeah I should probably back off.

Character Limit 

The most retarded rule ever put in place by social media websites. A character limit is a numerical limit on how many letters, numbers, symbols, spaces, digits, etc. that you can type into a single text box.

The character limit literally forces you to shorten all of your responses to where you can't even make sense of them at times. If you happen to exceed any given character limit, you are instructed to cut down your response in order to fit the number of characters (letters/numbers/symbols/etc.) allowed by the website. So if you are trying to put all of your ideas into one post, you often end up getting screwed over by the character limit. It ends up becoming an overall pain in the ass.

Some notable websites that contain character limits include: Urban Dictionary (1500 character limit), YouTube (500 character limit), and most annoyingly, Twitter (originally a 140 character limit for all posts, now a 118 character limit for posts that contain URL's).
Rob: "Almost done typing my definition for 'Character Limit' on Urban Dictionary; it's gonna be kickass."

*Presses "Send to UD"*

Rob: "WTF!? I have 1527 characters and the character limit is only 1500!? BULLSH*T!!!"

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.
