zero cost abstraction

A buzzword usually uttered by someone trying to sell you the idea that you should rewrite your project in Rust. It supposedly means "free" abstractions that don't come with overheads and penalties, but in reality they're anything but free.

If you hear someone use the term zero cost abstraction unironically, run as fast as you possibly can because you're cornered by a snake oil salesman.

When your heart is cold and you are toxic and careless

You also may be heartless

Him: I'll always be less than zero, I can't help it

Pink Zero

One's anus, or the act of mooning helpless pricks while spreading your steamed hams wide open -- bestowing upon them a gaping bubble gum ring, which will forever be burned into their mind.

He was shirtless and badmouthing my Punky Brewster box set so I dropped trou, spread em wide and shot him the pink zero when he turned around.

Zero Email Bounce

To achieve 0 emails in your inbox. I believe it means to have "bounced up against zero emails". When you achieve Zero Email Bounce, your inbox is not growing out of control, with unhandled stuff. When you achieve Zero Email Bounce your stress level goes down.

I achieved zero email bounce within the first two days after I started using the "Getting Things Done" inbox-management method.

Ground Zero Mosque

Reference to controversial plan to build a Mosque and "community center" in New York City, near the site of Ground Zero. The controversy and outrage comes from the 9/11 terrorist attacks involving Muslims and the victims' families still in mourning. Imam Feisal Abdul Rauf, the man behind the plan, is either extremely insensitive to the 9/11 victims or a truly obscene terrorist sympathizer!

Many people were rightfully appalled when the Ground Zero Mosque received approval from the NYC building commission! Whether intentional or not, the location of Rauf's planned Mosque is really a bad idea.
