Stands for Full Wave Rectified is a type of Electrical Current. A wave goes up to the maximum and decreases to 0 and repeats, the frequency depends on whether the line input of the AC to FWR converter is 60hz or 50hz. FWR is used for a few real-life applications for DC devices instead of a clean DC current however it can mess up some DC devices. You can convert FWR into DC using a Capacitor. DC unlike FWR is a clean straight line with no movement.

You need to power that device on DC instead of FWR for it to work right.

FWRB

FWRB stands for Friends with Relationship Benefits. This is defined as two people who identify their relationship as conclusively friends, yet at times may function and resemble a relationship. This means they may kiss, hold hands, go on dates, etc. but are NOT in an official relationship label. They are also exclusive in their relationship and do not date anyone during this relationship. Note: fwrb is different from fwb as fwb is more focused on sexual interactions minus emotion and feelings during a relationship while fwrb is focused on the experience of a relationship without the actual label of being in a relationship between people.

“Are Rachel and David dating?” “No! they’re just fwrb because they don’t want to ruin their friendship with a dating label.”

fwrists

The absence of a defined wrist on a person - whereby the forearm of the arm merges directly into the hand. The forearm appears to replace the wrist - hence the term "fwrists".

Very similar to cankles, except on the arms instead of the legs.

Damn that chick's got some huge forearms - LOOK! She's got fwrists!

fwrist

The ugly twin sister to the cwrist, fwrist is the chubby forearm-wrist; The wrist hardly tapers, if at all, resembling its cousin the cankle; also known by the pseudonyms Mega Man Syndrome and the cwrist.

The blind man cleverly felt his way down her pudgy arm to her much swollen fwrist. Before he could reject her, she abruptly blurted out "I know, my cankles are of similar mass, reject me if you must!"

Surf Dracula Syndrome

A phenomenon in film/television series, most notably streaming series, where the main premise is drawn out to such a point that it takes an entire season or more to get the parts of the series the audience is actually interested in seeing.

For example, if a series is titled "Surf Dracula," a majority of viewers would tune in expecting to see Dracula surfing by the first or second episode. However, the entire first season would instead be tedious padding and backstory before finally ending with Dracula surfing in the last five minutes of the season finale.

I watched "Smallville" on Netflix the other day. Dude, it was ten seasons of filler before he finally flew! Major Surf Dracula Syndrome!
