A game often played by sub-contractors in the aerospace industry who are working on intricate, time critical and interdependent parts of a significant development programme. Despite knowing they are unable to meet a delivery date they do not declare this knowledge to the customer in the hope that another sub-contractor is experiencing similar problems and will announce their own delay first, thus allowing them to push back their delivery whilst avoiding potential contractual penalties for a delay in schedule.
"I know we cannot possibly deliver our satellite for Q3 next year, but trust me, if we play launch chicken with the other sub-contractors one of them will crack before we do and delay the programme."

To pick up dead jellyfish (and other sea animals) on a beach, usually for community service purposes.
"Why were you at the beach yesterday?"
"I was just launching the jellies!|
When getting a chick from behind, condemless, and about to pull out, one rests his dick on the top of her ass crack and shoots his load into the air. A launch pad is truly successful when the jiz lands in her hair
i didn't want to get alyssa pregnant again so i pulled out and set up a launch pad

Noun (spaceflight terminology): to instantly activate the engine(s) of a terrestrial-situated spacecraft at 100% power, with no consideration of standard sequential gradation of thrust, in an attempt to immediately escape from an emergency situation.
"When Commander Leonov observed the escape tower separating from the Soyuz vehicle, he instantly engaged the crash-launch procedure, and saved his entire crew."

A sixty second timer one graciously receives via your body when a massive shit is ready to be released.
Being at or near a toilet when timer has begun is highly recommended. Anyone who has seen explosive diarrhea splattered on the walls of a fast food chain bathroom stall has beared witness to a blown or neglected sequence.
At T minus 10 seconds you basically have time to remove your belt and pants at which point you must be pointing into the toilet with your anus or risk a meltdown or massive cleanup.
Guy1: Dude, I have to take a giant dump...
Guy2: We're almost there in 5 minutes, man up you pussy.
Guy1: Launch Sequence initiated...
Guy2: Look! a McDonalds!

The term refering to the moment an elderly lady, clutching her handbag, gets up from the safety of her bus seat the exact moment the bus driver hits the brakes launching the off-balanced woman down the bus aisle in a straight line akin to an F-18 taking off the deck of an aircraft carrier. There is a noticable whoosh if you're listening. Laughing is discouraged but understandable.
Dude! While taking the bus down 5th this morning a bike courier cut us off causing the driver to granny launch this woman the whole lenght of the bus.
Was she okay?
I don't know. The door openend just as she flew by the driver then she was gone.

Another name of a throw-off in a track meet used by many professionals to make the sport of throwing huge balls around sound cooler.
Hey John, you going to the Launch Fest?
No I'm going to watch the 400 meter dash
