A technique used to find the perfect spot in your room for full-sounding bass.
This technique is created by Gene DellaSala, president and Founder/Owner of Audioholics (an online A/V magazine)

The technique involves placing the subwoofer in the spot where you usually sit when watching movies or listening to music, and turning on a fairly bass-heavy test track. Then, crawling around on the floor while listening to where the bass sounds the best. Switching spots with your subwoofer—it should sound about the same.

Mark: I got my new sound system, but am confused where to place the subwoofer for the best sound.
Sami: Easy, do the subwoofer crawl and you will find out.

1. The best thing ever invented.

2. A speaker that varies in size usually from 8" to 32". The most popular size is 12". They are made to put out the low end of the audio spectrum. They make the low end a.k.a. bass more noticeable and louder and smoother. Playing them loudly is also known as subwoofing, and if your not careful about where you do it, it will make other people mad. Subwoofer's are a great way to attract someone's attention, but just keep in mind thats not always a good thing.

I had my subwoofers working hard to get this girls attention, but at the same time I attracted someone else's attention and it was only a few seconds before I saw the blueberry's and cherry's in my rear view mirrior.

Man's attempt to give a machine sexual organs.

1) I really wish I could have intercourse with my subwoofer.
2) By the way she was acting last night, you could have sworn she'd want to sleep with that subwoofer.
3) Guy 1: "He's in-love with his car."
Guy 2: "Yeah, I bet if he could he'd do it with his subwoofer."

murderhobo

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.

The term is most common with Dungeons and Dragons, but it can be applied to most RPGs where the player is allowed to kill most quest-giving NPCs and NPC traders. E.g. Elder Scrolls, Fallout, Divinity original sin.

DM: The sad little orphan girl tugs at Steve's trenchcoat to get his attention, and ask for help saving her pet dog from...
Steve: I'd like to roll a strength check against strangling the orphan.
Dave: I call dibs on the dog.
DM: You murderhobos disgust me.

Whale

In sales terms, a whale is a prospect that is significantly larger than an organization’s average customer.

Whales are large and extremely difficult to close. Due to their immense size, they are highly sought-after.

A whale is typically identified at first by a whale hunter on the sales team, but often requires cross-discipline participation in order to close; this includes assistance from operations, engineering, creative, client success, and business development teams.

"Shit...the sales director chewed me out on the sales call this morning. He's totally pissed that I have nothing in my pipeline. I've been focused on this one whale for so long that I haven't had time to prospect for normal-sized deals."

city chicken

A food native to Pittsburgh/Western Pennsylvania in which cubes of pork and/or veal are put on a short, wooden skewer, breaded, then baked and/or fried.

I've heard that city chicken originated during the Great Depression, when folks didn't have enough money to buy full cuts of meat, so they assembled meat scraps on a wooden skewer, creating a make-shift drumstick. Hence the name.

Are yinz havin' city chicken for dinner?
