When a person (usually a gamer) does things they don't mean to do because they accidentally press all the wrong buttons, usually due to stress or simply having huge fingers. Can cause lots of rage depending on what accidentally occurs and when.
My mate has lobster claw syndrome and it sometimes seems like he's button mashing.
A phenomenon in chess where a player makes moves that align with what they would like their opponent to do instead of playing the objectively best move. The most common result is that their opponent does not play the moves they "want," resulting in confusion and, ultimately, major blunders.
Hope Chess is a good way to lose fast.
A very large, obese cat.
In order for a fat cat to be considered an absolute unit, it must NOT be of a breed that is naturally very large in size (ex. a Maine Coon).
An orange cat that weighs 25 lbs = Absolute Unit
A Maine Coon that weighs 25 lbs = NOT an Absolute Unit
My cat Steve is an absolute unit.
Something you ought to not step on. Who knows what Elvis will do to you.
Well it's one for the money, two for the show
Three to get ready, now go, cat, go
But don't you step on my blue suede shoes
Well, you can do anything, but stay off of my blue suede shoes
You can knock me down, step on my face
Slander my name all over the place
Do anything that you want to do
But uh-uh honey, lay off of them shoes
Don't you step on my blue suede shoes
Well, you can do anything, but stay off of my blue suede shoes
(Instrumental)
You can burn my house, steal my car
Drink my liquor from an old fruit-jar
Do anything that you want to do
But uh-uh baby, stay off of my shoes
Don't you step on my blue suede shoes
Well, you can do anything, but stay off of my blue suede shoes
(Instrumental)
Well, it's one for the money, two for the show
Three to get ready, now go, go, go
But don't you step on my blue suede shoes
Well, you can do anything, but stay off of my blue suede shoes
Well it's blue, blue, blue suede shoes
Blue, blue, blue suede shoes (Yeah!)
Blue, blue, blue suede shoes, baby
Blue, blue, blue suede shoes
Well, you can do anything, but stay off of my blue suede shoes
An R&B duo consisting of Samuel "Sam" Moore and David "Dave" Prater. They were active for around two decades (excluding a brief hiatus) before they split up. They are best known for the songs "Soul Man" and "Hold On, I'm Coming."
As of December 2021, only Sam Moore is still alive. Dave Prater died in a car accident in April 1988.
Don't you ever feel sad
Lean on me when times are bad
When the day comes and you're down
In a river of trouble and about to drown
Just hold on, I'm coming
Hold on, I'm coming
Sam and Dave were great together. Their perfect voices made some pretty memorable tunes.
A common method of cheating in pinball where the person "tilts" (lifts) the machine to one side in order to force the ball to move somewhere else, potentially stopping it from going right between the flippers, or into a bonus.
Unfortunately, most machines are programmed specifically to combat this; if the machine detects that it is being tilted, a message saying "TILT" will appear. "TILT" causes the machine to become unresponsive until the ball falls out, causing the player to lose it. This is done to prevent cheating, as well as to avoid the machine being damaged.
Person 1: You hear about the guy who got the record high score on one of the pinball machines at the local arcade?
Person 2: Yeah, what about him?
Person 1: He was disqualified after someone ratted on him for tilting.
Person 2: Well, good on them. Cheaters never prosper. But how did he get away with it for so long? Normally the machine can detect that.
Person 1: Well...he was careful about it to make sure that the machine didn't notice, and people were too focused on the score.
Person 2: So how did they figure it out?
Person 1: The machine broke, and the guy playing it at the time happened to be an expert who suggested that someone was tilting. So they replayed that guy's high score and discovered it. He's now banned from the arcade.
To explain something in layman's terms or otherwise an extremely simpleton way so that even the most ignorant people can understand.
I had to spell out to my friend that gun laws don't work because criminals don't follow laws. It made my brain hurt.
