RuBP is the short form for one of the intermediates in the Calvin cycle: Ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate
Rubisco (an enzyme) catalyzes the reaction of RuBP with Carbon Dioxide in a process known as carbon fixation. This forms 2 molecules of glycerate 3-phosphate (GP). GP then further goes onto be reduced to triose phosphate and RuBP is generated again
Doctor: WHAT ON EARTH IS RuBP?

Student Doctor: Didn't you learn doctor?! It's the short form of Ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate!

Doctor: WHAAAAATT???? They had slang for Organic Compounds?!? Biology is so fun!

Student Doctor: That's the life!

Nerd neck 

A "human" that spends so much time playing video games that their posture is level nerd neck. Everytime anyone goes tryhard they hunch down and their neck gets longer there fore a nerd neck is always hunched down cause they're always going try hard. In other words a nerd neck is a try hard, since their neck is 100% longer than the average human being due to playing too many video games and taking them serious, nerd necks are not even considered human anymore but something more sad.
