Orlovsky safety

In American football, when a player unknowingly and unintentionally runs out the back of their own end zone, resulting in a safety. This differs from a traditional safety in the way that the offensive player does not fumble or is physically tackled by an opponent. Coined in reference to Detroit Lion's quarterback Dan Orlovsky running out the back of his end zone against the Minnesota Vikings in the 2008 NFL season.

-"Did you see the game yesterday, the stupid back-up quarterback pulled an Orlovsky safety to lose the game!!"

-"Don't even talk to me about that, it's one of the dumbest plays a professional athlete can make."

Serial Monogamist

Someone who jumps from one relationship immediately into another one.

Serial monogamists can not stand to be alone and often suffer from vast commitment and insecurity issues.

Because they jump into relationships immediately after the previous one has ended, serial monogamists typically don't take the time to reflect on their behavior or why their previous relationships failed; thus, they end up making the same relationship mistakes over and over again.

Person 1: Damn, Dustin already has a new girlfriend?! It's only been two weeks since he broke up with his fiance! I think he's a sociopath.

Person 2: No, he's a serial monogamist...
