Brogan Adjustment 

Share definition Flag
Special technique of the U.S.-Army Signal Corps for repairing electronic equipment. It consists of smacking the shit out of an electronic device with one's own shoe, instilling obedience into it and forcing it to function as desired through sheer physical power.

This technique was famously employed by Paulie from the cult classic TV-Show "The Sopranos" when he was trying to repair a DVD-Player during S2-E4.
Paulie: "I was in the Army Signal Corps, what this thing needs is what we call a Brogan Adjustment."
*Proceeds to viciously brutalize the DVD-Player*
Tony: "There was nothing we could do about it... Paulie was a Made Man and the DVD-Player wasn't... it was real greaseball shit..."
