Harvard Terminology 

Harvard Terminology is the ambiguous grouping of words, typically in response to an inquiry requiring action, who’s objective is to leave the inquirer with sufficient hope to stifle the inquiry. This fleeting hope is usually followed by confusion and bewilderment regarding the true nature of this cruel response.

Ryland: Hey Stacy, what are you doing tonight? Would you like to go to a movie and grab a bite? Or maybe if you're not doing anything this weekend we could go to the beach. Let me know what works for you.

Stacy: That sounds like fun.

Ryland: You know, everytime you use Harvard Terminology, a baby turtle dies.

medical terminology 

an absurd blend of dog Latin, anglicized Greek, and bastardized mumbo-jumbo fragments of various other languages used by physicians and wannabe physicians solely for the purpose of establishing dominance in clinical interactions with those outside the medical community.

The patient came into my office acting like he knew his anus from a hole in the ground, but I threw some medical terminology at him to make him feel uneducated and vulnerable.

Terminology Nazi 

Someone who flips the hell out when you use a term that is not the "original" or correct term for something even though any rational person understands exactly what you mean in 99.9% of practical situations.

"Hey, did you try the bottomless clip mutator?"

"IT'S NOT A CLIP IT'S A MAGAZINE!"

or

"It's pretty cool how Doom was so revolutionary putting the player on a 3d plane, which looked awesome."

"DOOM IS 2.5D NOT 3D FAGET!!"

"Don't be such a terminology nazi Kyle, you know what he means."
