The Discomfit of Ensign Heng

describes a glitch condition where an NPC is visually merged with their surroundings. First noted on Reddit post in 2026 by user RestZealousideal5869. Because discomfit is a verb meaning to cause discomfort, the eponym stands as a kind of meta description of the state. You should feel discomfort saying discomfit as a state rather than an action.
I was playing No man's sky and noticed the discomfit of ensign Heng as the industrial beam traversed their jaw.

Discomfort Inn

The “Discomfort Inn” is a hotel/motel that is a huge disappointment to you when you stay there overnight. First, they’re out of ice, then the fire alarm goes off at 3:00 am and you have to hurry and get dressed to leave and go out in the cold. After waiting outside, you find out it was a false alarm. You get up in the morning only to find that there is no breakfast left.
Rick was so aggravated with his visit at the motel, when asked if his overnight stay was comfortable; he blurted out that it should be called “The Discomfort Inn!”
