Unbounded System

A system with no discernible boundaries—no clear edge between inside and outside, no definite limits to its extent or influence. Unbounded systems are everywhere and nowhere: the internet, the economy, your extended family's drama. They're impossible to fully map, impossible to completely understand, impossible to control. Unbounded systems are what you're dealing with when you can't tell where the problem ends and everything else begins. They're the reason some arguments never conclude—you can't bound the relevant factors. They're also the reason some experiences feel infinite—because they are, at least in terms of connections and implications.
Example: "She tried to understand her anxiety as a bounded problem with clear causes. But it was an unbounded system—connected to her childhood, her job, her relationships, her health, the news, the climate, the state of the world. No clear boundaries, no edge to the problem. Unbounded systems can't be solved; they can only be navigated. She stopped trying to fix it and started trying to live with it."

Completely Unfounded

1. A legal term that means: "We did it, but you can't prove it. And even if you CAN prove it, we'll drag out the litigation until your great-grandchildren are dead."

Corporate attorneys frequently use this phrase to defend their clients against civil lawsuits. And they get $500 a hour for this nonsense?

2. A kneejerk reaction to any accusation of white collar crime.
The attorney for Goldman Sachs said the government's fraud charges were "Completely Unfounded." After the press conference, he laughed all the way to the bank.
Make your own rules... Live life outside the lines.
push the limits of personal performance.
Be Unbound! Push the limits of personal performance!

unfunded mandate 

A typical date between two me but lacking the neccessary funds.
Christopher and Nate went on an unfunded mandate to the park because it did not cost money.

lost and unbound 

A terrible NBA 2K player. He is often garbage at many sports videogames. He also rages when he and his team loses badly.
I played against lost and unbound in NBA 2K. It was the easiest game ever.
