Polette

A woman who has two sides to her. She can be charismatic, funny, connect with you in a special kind of way (whether it be romantic or friendly), she's sure to have a big impact on your life if you take the necessary precautions to let her in. Polettes are a very reserved people, usually takes a while for you to earn their trust but once you do, hold on like george of the jungle swingin on vines.

On the other hand, she can be a real bitch about some things, but in the good way. The kind of way where you enjoy arguing with her even if shes being a dumbass. Polettes are also known for making bad decisions, in the realm of dating, but at the end of the day, Polettes are the kind of people you want in your life even if they broke your heart.

Most likely listens to "alternative music" because Polettes think theyre unique as fuck
"Oh yeah Polette? She broke my fuckin heart but shes chillin"

"Polette's coming over later dad!"

"Damn shes stupid, classic Polette that one"

Lennart Poettering

A somewhat well-known author of surreal horror fiction from Germany, Lennart Poettering is mostly known for writing overly long and confusing works such as Pulsations of Autophilia (a tragedy about a sluggish autistic teenager who is murdered while fucking his uncle's Porsche and comes back as a ghost to seek vengeance) and Systems Down (about a server administrator who finds himself locked in the server room after closing time with a horrible, memory-corrupting abomination).
I picked up this new book at Barnes and Noble, but it says that Lennart Poettering is required reading so I'm taking it back.

poetterware

Poetterware is a type of software mostly found on Linux systems, for example systemd, pulseaudio, policykit, consolekit, xdg-open, colord and more.
This software generally works very well and solves really complicated problems, but if it doesn't behave the way it should, you will have a hard time debugging the issue (e.g. via dbus), working around it (by quick hacks) or use alternative software. It may be written by Lennart Poettering or the freedesktop foundation or other participants in the ecosystem.
You're using Gentoo Linux with systemd? Yes, although it's poetterware it works very well for me.

Politter

Another word to call political campaign signs and flyers that accumulate on lawns and street corners during an election year.
Person 1: Wow man, you don't look too happy. What's the matter?

Person 2: I woke up this morning and there was a bunch of politter on my lawn. I don't need someone telling me how I should vote by putting signs in my frame of vision.
