Tetrising 

The act of fitting a lot of crap into a very tiny space through clever usage of every bit of available space. Tetris-gifted people can easily pack an entire house into the trunk of a Toyota. This can come in very handy when space is at a premium!

A person who is particularly talented in this way is often referred to as a Tetris King or Queen.
I spent three hours Tetrising, but I finally got the car packed. I told you the whole living room could fit in the van in one trip!

I don't know how that girl did it, but there's thirty plastic flamingos in my bathroom!

We told you not to piss Sarah off. She's too good at Tetrising!

Tetrapharmakos 

(τετραφάρμακος), or "the four-part cure," is the Greek philosopher Epicurus' (341 BC, Samos – 270 BC, Athens) remedy for leading the happiest possible life. The "tetrapharmakos" was originally a compound of four drugs (wax, tallow, pitch and resin); the word has been used metaphorically by Epicurus and his disciples to refer to the four remedies for healing the soul.
Tetrapharmakos, the four-part cure;

Don't fear God,
Don't worry about death;
What is good is easy to get, and
What is terrible is easy to endure

καὶ τἀγαθὸν μὲν εὔκτητον,
τὸ δὲ δεινὸν εὐκαρτέρητον
