While President Bush refrained from stating any specific numbers, the points in his address were facty enough to convince the American public of the grave and immediate threat.

Buggerance Factor

This phrase is derived from the English slang word buggerance meaning something annoying, an untimely interruption or anything else that interferes with the smooth progress of work. It is used a lot in project management where it became necessary to allow additional time for these unforeseen and unforeseeable events. Where it was not possible to allow this time against a particular element of the project, a non-specific increase in time was allowed to cover these eventualities, this became known as the Buggerance Factor.

The Buggerance Factor is there to cover the extra time needed to rectify those things, which never ever go wrong, but invariably do if you fail to allow for them. It is usually added because of a sixth sense on the part of the project manager that something unexpected is going to happen and is the factor that allows for the law of project management that states Parkinson, Murphy and Sod are alive and well and working on your project. See also Malcolm’s Law.

That Heale Malcolm has managed to wangle his way on to the next project!

That fuckwit! We'd better increase the buggerance factor in that case.

Factorio

A drug that will slowly draw you in and wreak havoc upon your very sanity in an endless quest to automate and perfect your setups. Its mere presence appears to have the power to distort time.

Dude: Who's that girl? I'm going to check her click factor.
Dude: 3 clicks and I see her titties.
Other dude: Click factor of 3, not bad but she’s no star.
