The cataclysmic death of a billion people or more. This is equivalent to one thousand megadeaths. This does not need to occur in a single event, but from a connected cause. This word was derived from "megadeath", which was coined in 1953 to describe the results of nuclear war. In contrast, "gigadeath" was coined to describe the more massive catastrophe of industrial civilization combined with peak oil, global warming, ecological degradation, and explosive population growth overshooting the global carrying capacity.

"Abrupt climate change would inevitably lead to gigadeath."

"Humans can live sustainably on this planet, but only after a few gigadeaths."

Gigadead

Gigadead is a classically-based Speed Metal or Death Metal band from Minnesota, USA. They formed around the year 1990. The main writer is associated with a Kublai Khan member (they had an ex Megadeth guitarist). These same musicians (Idso, River and Pelton) also have ties with the main writer from Kronk and Realm (Milwaukee, Wis). Unlike Bay Area California bands though, Gigadead's style has always seemed more closely related to Scandinavian Death Metal or Germanic Speed Metal.

gigabeat

a great mp3/wma/wav player by Toshiba. it beats the shitty iPod by a longshot. it boasts a larger screen, that ROTATES, like PivotPro on PC if you know what that is, it holds higher bitrates for higher quality than just the shitty 128kbps mp3 and mp4 codec iPod uses through the gay iTunes. the software toshiba includes is decent. i recommend it to anyone who hates the click wheel, like me, and for people that desire something sexy and different. amen

-dude, i just bought my gigabeat today! it rapes the ipod up the ass!
-sweet yo!

Back when I lived in upstate new york

A meaningless, unimpressive, self-serving introduction. An indicator that the story about to be shared will be pointless and dumb.

Back when I lived in upstate new york, I also had to park on the street - on two occasions, we got enough snow, mixed with just the right plowing, that my car was lifted off the ground from so much snow being jammed underneath it.

TLDU

Acronym, meaning Too Long Didn't Understand
Similar to TLDR

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!
