Jul 15 Word of the Day
The safeguarding of Earth and other worlds from biological cross-contamination (i.e. billionaires with too much time on their hands).
Also known as “planetary protection.” Planetary protection / quarantine “reflects both the unknown nature of the space environment and the desire of the scientific community to preserve the pristine nature of celestial bodies until they can be studied in detail.”
There are two types of interplanetary contamination. Forward contamination is the transfer of viable organisms from Earth to another celestial body. Back contamination is the transfer of extraterrestrial organisms, if such exist, back to the Earth's biosphere.

Billionaires are having a dick swinging space race while the earth experiences record breaking heatwaves that cause sea creatures to literally cook inside their shells. We need planetary quarantine.

Work-like Bullshit. Many project management professionals mistakenly believe that this is an acronym for Work Breakdown Structure. However, the WBS actually is used only to simulate work and cover time spent persuing other activites.
(1) The Project Manager must have been busy this week, he produced a WBS for each deliverable.
(2) I can't get started on my work because my boss hasn't given me the WBS for my part.

"How did Bob get a date with Megan?"
"He got hit by a falling tree and broke his leg."
"Ah, so it's a case of WBS."

Whiny Bitch Syndrome (WBS)
Complaining about a problem they have clearly brought upon themselves. A sense of entitlement.
