apologems 

In-game currency given for free to the game's playerbase as apology for maintenance, glitches, or other issues or obstacles in game play. Derived from a portmanteau of the words "apology" and "gems", because many games use gems, jewels, or diamonds to represent in-game currency. Apologems often consist of particularly valuable forms of in-game currency, such as those which can be obtained via microtransactions.
Sarah: Ugh, the server maintenance for Love Nikki has been going on for an hour longer than the developers said it would!
Kate: It sucks, but hopefully they'll send us all some apologems to compensate.

cop apologist 

A cop apologist is a person, usually a Statist, who, no matter what a cop does, no matter how bad and unreasonable their actions are. A cop apologist will defend their actions no matter what. They, like cops themselves, think that the police are royalty and above the law and they think that cops should be able to do whatever they want no matter what the situation is. They also think that people should just comply to cops or whatever even though people are not obligated to. They also think it's bad for people to stand up for their rights to a cop even though they have every right to do so.
Regular person: That cop just shot a kid while the kid was holding a Wii remote.

Cop apologist: That Wii remote could have been a gun, I think the cop's action is justified.

Regular person: Really? If you can't tell the difference between a Wii remote and a gun, you must be mentally retarded or a special kind of stupid and shouldn't even be a cop.

Sister: This meeting was to discuss the rough draft of my essay, where we discussed the subsidiary questions I added in my rough draft. We also discussed the relationship between my main title and the real-life situations I chose to use in my essay. We discussed the structure of my essay as well, specifically the Math AOK section and how it relates to the contradiction of the title. This second meeting was particularly helpful in discussing the implications of my essay claims and how to apply the title across various areas of knowledge. There were many sections of the essay that could have been cut down in wordiness and the ways of knowing required further and more in-depth analysis.
