Mike - Oh? Too bad. Was it from gut rot from that jalepeno shrimp or brainspin from your BCP exercises at work??

Diane - Definitely brainspin. I just can't get a handle on the whole BCP thing. It is sooooo complicated.

Mike - Why don't you just past it off to your boss? Let him handle it?

brainspike 

Verb: the act of watching a particular series (usually but not always anime) of episodes or movies in a row.
(especially the ENTIRE series at once)

Originated from Eau Claire, Wisconsin. It was created as a more polite/useable form of mindfuck (which means the same thing) by the local university's anime organization. Apparently watching many hours of anime episodes straight does something to you in the head.
Verb: Remember when we brainspiked Eva last month?

Noun: The brainspike starts at 6 and ends four days later.

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.

Me: Woah! TLDU!
