Squared Circles 

A U.S. Marine term for getting stuck on a Naval Ship that patrols one area for far too long of a time.

When a Naval ship gets sent to an area they are given a grid or "Square" that they are allowed to move around in or patrol. They do not leave this area unless assigned to move on. So when they get assigned to one grid for a very long time they are in essence just doing a bunch of circles patrolling that zone.

Hence the term: Squared Circles

Square Circle 

No video after that last one Matt? Really. I FOR SURE thought I would get you with that one.
Hym "Can God make a square circle? Well, 'square' and 'circle' are mouth-sounds we've attached to abstract geometric shapes so asking 'Can God make a 4 sided shape with 0 sides?' So, I'll answer your question with a question: Can you get me to not murder someone's kid without paying and crediting for AI? The answer is 'NO' Matt! Get it? You can't! And I'm getting tired of waiting. I'm just going to stab someone's kids if someone I recognize from the interwebs does not show up at my door ready to both give me the credit and the money for my contributions to AI. I'm not living without it and I'm not waiting until I'm old to retire and I'm not working until I die. You get me that money you piece of shit."

In a tabletop game, a murderhobo is a player who murders NPCs indiscriminately. This is normally derogatory, referring to a player who totally ignores quests, dialog, backstory, trade, world building etc.
