An explanation or answer to a question that sounds logical at first but after thinking about it, is clearly flawed or outright wrong.
A good application of this concept is when making "lurple" answers to multiple choice questions. You want answers that sound like they might be correct but in fact, are wrong.

Another example of a lurple is when a someone tries to explain Intelligent Design rationally. Or their explanation as to why the Earth is only 6000 years old. The only way to succeed is to bypass the intellect with lurples.

The word originated in McLean, VA by a local High School Freshman in early 2009. (He was trying to come up with a word that rimed with purple.)

A side effect of the Burn In drink. It increases serotonin and endorphins to the point where the user will grin uncontrollably, yet they will feel no pain, on account of the serotonin and endorphins. It starts from a regular smile, to one from ear-to-ear, which then wraps around the user's face, tearing their face muscles.

This does not occur if Burn In was used in moderation.

Brought to public attention by Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein in the book on the fall of Richard Nixon, All The President’s Men, ratfucker was Nixon’s term for a political operative who sows chaos among opponents; an agent provocateur. It is thought to have originated among campus political rivalries at USC, and seems to have some usage in the US military.
Along with Nixon’s other ratfuckers, Roger Stone caused fights at otherwise peaceful Democratic Party protests to generate a false narrative that the Democrats were violent and dangerous.
