Mount Vernon Approach

A.k.a: "The Mt. Vernon method"
An old strategy for cleaning and decluttering...the Mount Vernon Method. Originating from the Washington Estate: Mt. Vernon

The Mount Vernon Approach was used at George Washington's estate, the method involves a one-room-at-a-time approach, starting at the door and moving clockwise around the room, cleaning and organizing one piece of furniture before moving on to the next. The advantage of this method is pacing yourself, and having clear goals that can be accomplished one by one.

n. "I learned to use the Mt. Vernon approach from my mother." --E.M.

v. "Just Mt. Vernon it."

The "Gain" Approach

Originally named after a UK student, the "Gain" approach involves completing a task using the least effort possible.

Usually applied to programming, it relies on templates, copying large chunks of code, and limiting functionality to decrease production time.

So long as the output meets the minimum test criteria, it is considered a success.

Person 1 : How are you ever going to finish your project by the end of the week

Person 2 : Easy I shall just use the "Gain" approach.

shogun approach

When you're asked random-ass obscure question in writing (e.g. via Email) referring to an even more obscure document (usually a spreadsheet), and are forced to acknowledge it's existence.

"Hey man, what-the-eff Jeff sent me a message apologizing for using the shogun approach, you have any idea what he's on about?"
