oneliner

Same as: one-liner, one liner
Oneliner in programming jargon is used to describe code that is written in only one line. Usually such code is unreadable and a spaghetti code, written for sole purpose of exercise or in competition with others to write the shortest code possible (code golfing). It is also possible to "cheat in a oneliner": some programming languages have special characters that can be used instead of a new line (usually semicolon ";" ). Such oneliner is boring and doesn't show any obscure knowledge in a language of choice.

Example oneliner in python:
print("You've rolled:",__import__("random").randint(1,6))
Where cheated one would look like this:
import random; print("You've rolled:", random.randint(1, 6))
And the normal program would look like:
import random
print("You've rolled:", random.randint(1, 6))

All of the example codes above do a one thing: simulate a dice roll.

onliner

An onliner is someone who plays CS online and does things which are normally impossible to do on LAN. For example an onliner may HS you while on a ladder or while in mid air. These acts are usually met with agression from players who recieve such ridiculous HS's and thus the term onliner was born.

One Liner

A perfectly timed, short, witty remark. Used to put someone in their place, put someone down, make a humorous remark or observation, or to simply show the world how awesome you are.

The best One Liners make use of that wonderous language device the pun as well as sheer wit and good timing.

Commonly used by many great actors in action movies.
1) Arnold Schwarzenegger in Predator after getting someone with a thrown knife which stuck the man to the wall:

"Stick around!"

2) Arnold (again) in Commando after dangling Sully (one of the villians) off of a cliff and then letting him drop:

"What Happened to Sully?"
"I let him go."

3) John Wayne in The War Wagon after he and his partner shoot two bad guys at once:

partner: "Mine hit the ground first!"
John Wayne: "Mine was taller."
