orders of magnitude 

A hyperbolical and completely unnecessary adverbial phrase in techie or business-speak that simply means "much" or "considerably".

"I think we would like it to be more reliable," Katz-Bassett said. "It's orders of magnitude less reliable than the telephone network right now. I think it should be pretty possible to get it closer."

(From a Yahoo! news report)

Orders of Magnitude 

Let's get one thing straight: You ARE trying to kill me with this. When I die alone "without ever having any real friends" after spending the vast majority of my life being derided almost exclusively so you can use me as an instrument for ridicule in a way that leaves me unallowed to retaliate, that isn't "you not killing me." Sorry, I'm not an incest cultists so nobody told me that I was just subject to your whim, ad infinitum. Which is par for the course in a place where I'm expect treat women like pleasure dictators that imbue the subject of THEIR whim with an inflated value that then multiplies AND COMPOUNDS. That sounds like a DEBT. Or a LOAN.

A fucking retard "But a GOOD person would forgive us. Jesus would forgive us."

Hym "You mean the guy you fucking mangled in spite of the fact that he didn't to anything wrong? Fuck that guy. As a matter of fact, if you were fucking that guy he wouldn't be getting nailed to some wood."

A retard "Well if you're not a GOOD person then you're a BAD person and then-"

Hym "I'm subject to your whims again? Yeah. That seems to be a general theme. And now that my fate affects you there are orders of magnitude? What order of magnitude is weaponize schizophrenia and harvesting my soul for consumption? Because... BOTH OF THOSE THINGS WERE ALREADY HAPPENING BEFORE I SAID ANYTHING. Am I working of the debt you deferred good enough yet or what?"

Order of Magnitude Analysis 

Only slightly less useful than real analysis, order of magnitude analysis (instead of using actual values) only considers what size "ruler" one would choose to measure each thing then compares those "ruler" sizes to assertain whether thing one is huge compared to thing two or vice versa.

By order of magnitude analysis, the scale of an atom is a 1 billion-billion-billion-billionth the scale of the observable universe. So, quite frankly my dear, we astrophysicists don't give a damn!
