tankxiety 

A portmanteau of "Tank" and "Anxiety". The common occurrence in any MMO (Massively Multiplayer Online) game in which the main defensive and attention-holding party member, the Tank, expresses feelings of doubt and lack of self-confidence. Many players feel exposed and at high risk of being the "leader" of the party by being the tank, causing the worst cases of "tankxiety".
Paladin: "Look, I usually run healer, I don't know how to hold aggro yet. I can just learn tank another day..."
Friend: "Shut up. EVERYONE has tankxiety when they first start, but it's just because you're stressing over the little stuff."

Tankietank 

A Tankietank is a rare species of Shower Goblin that enters your bathroom through the toilet. You cannot prepare for this intrusion as you may be in the shower, brushing your teeth or simply in the room next door. You never know when he is going to bubble his way up to the surface. If you suspect you have a Tankietank stalking you look out for the signs of puddles the size of flippers in the places that you have recently been. If you encounter this creature it will most likely be wearing a Snorkel, Flippers, Goggles and have a Mixmaster on its back.

DO NOT: Make any sudden movements.
DO NOT: Attempt to get him back in the toilet - This will anger the creature and provoke an attack.

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.
