pinwheel of death

When one is using Macintosh OS X, and the computer crashes by turning the cursor into a pinwheel and not letting you do anything. SImilar to the Blue Screen of death from the old Windows NT days, but, like many Apple products, cuter and more friendly looking.

"Whoops! I tried to open two programs at once on this iMac with the stock 256mb of RAM. Now the keyboard and mouse button aren't working."

"Yup. Looks like you got the old pinwheel of death."

pin wheel of death

When you're using a Mac on OS X and your mouse has the pin wheel loading something, but it never stops causing you to have to restart your machine.

Man 2:Hmmm I thought Macs were supposed to be "perfect"?

Nutshot

It is said of the situation where a person has the bad luck to make contact with his testicles against an undefined surface or object, intentioned or not.
Given the nature of the word, it is more appropriate to design cases where the interaction is made with a moving object, for example, a ball.
Although it is extremely painful for the victim, it tends to be considerably funny to people who witness it.

Today in the baseball game the pitcher took a nutshot; the baseball hit him in the nuts.

Man, I just watched the funniest nutshot video ever.

Nerd neck

A "human" that spends so much time playing video games that their posture is level nerd neck. Everytime anyone goes tryhard they hunch down and their neck gets longer there fore a nerd neck is always hunched down cause they're always going try hard. In other words a nerd neck is a try hard, since their neck is 100% longer than the average human being due to playing too many video games and taking them serious, nerd necks are not even considered human anymore but something more sad. Nerd necks are often found on fortnite, their natural habitat usually being tilted towers.

What a fucking nerd neck!

He is building so fast, nerd neck!

Looser more like a nerd neck ha!
