A list of puns related to "Glossary of geography terms"
New over here and got in just after a dollar. loaded up my little GME boat. Sorry we have come over and taken over your sub talking in our strange language. As a thank you for the wonderful DD in the Loopring University (very helpful). Here is a glossary to help you, the good people of Loopring, understand what the hell your new best friends are talking about... Enjoy and lets MOASS to the moon and get them fcuking tendies together !
Autist: a clever ape who looks at charts, does DD and explains stuff to retards.
Crayon: In addition to tendies, an apes main form of nutrition, Green Crayons are the tastiest. Our wife's boyfriend gives us these on green days. But we eat up all the red crayons too on red days. We just buy, eat crayons and HODL.
DD: Due diligence, charts and sh1t.
DFV: deepfuckingvalue / Roaring kitty. A prince among apes, the redditor who introduced the rest of us to GME and explained the Short squeeze set up. A man who just likes the stonk.
DRS: Direct registration system. Where we send our stonks to sleep in the infinity pool to prevent Kenny and the SHFβs using them for shorting, loaning, IOUs and general fcukery. Tucked up warm, our goal is to lock the available float to trigger the MOASS. Kind of like keeping them in your own Crypto wallet.
Floor: the minimum price we will sell our stonks for each. See 69,420,741 below.
Infinity Pool: Once we lock all the available shares that are in the float by direct registering them, The SHFs cannot close their short position as there are no shares available and we squeeze them hedgies nuts until it rains tendies on everyone.
Ken: Kenny / Kenneth Cordele Griffin β the CEO of Shitadel and main subject of our rage and memes. An all-round purveyor of fcukery, dark pool abuse and stock manipulation.
MOASS: Mother of all Short Squeezes. What will happen to GME when it moons and we squeeze them hedgies nuts.
Mothers Basement: Where all apes live, eating Tendies and waiting for the wifes boyfriend to give us pocket money to buy stonks.
SHF: Short hedge funds / Sh1thedge funds. The guys on the other side of the trade who shorted our beloved stonk and will have to pay us in tendies after MOASS. Fcuk them damn hedgies.
Sh1tadel: Citadel Investment Group. The main player in the shorting of GME. Bad people. Example: Shitadel can go fcuk themselves, Kenny better get ready to bring me my tendies.
Smooth Brain: a young ape who is unseasoned in bat
... keep reading on reddit β‘FI/RE: Financial Independence / Retiring Early. Financial independence usually refers to no longer needing to sell your labor in order to cover your necessary expenses for the rest of your life. Retiring Early usually refers to actually exiting the labor market and living off your profits from participating in the capital market.
Coast FI/RE: Having enough invested for retirement that you no longer need to contribute to your investments to retire by your expected future retirement age (based on expected returns).
Barista FI/RE: Having achieved Coast FI/RE, choosing to take a less-stressful job since you no longer need as much income to match your expenses without any savings goals.
Lean FI/RE: Retiring early with expected expenses under the median household income in your area. Metaphorically βtightening the beltβ on a permanent basis, either to retire even earlier or because you will be happy enough without spending more than most.
Fat FI/RE: Retiring early with expected expenses in the top percentile of household income in your area. Named for being the opposite of βlean,β like with steak. Requires more investment, often locking this strategy behind either being a high-earner in your contributing years, working longer, or being lucky.
Leverage: Debt. In this context, usually debt taken on to invest, hopefully to be paid off by the returns on the investment. Adds extra risk in exchange for potentially higher returns.
TNSTAAFL: Thereβs No Such Thing As A Free Lunch. In other words, youβll usually never get anything truly for free. Additional potential rewards in an investment come with additional risk. Free healthcare is paid for by taxes. Free lunches usually mean someone is trying to get your time and attention to try to sell you something.
Boglehead: Someone who follows the investing strategy of Jack Bogle. The Bogleheads Wiki is a great resource for learning about that investing strategy.
REI: Real Estate Investing. If youβre the one doing the property searching, due diligence, offers, renovations, tenant marketing, and/or maintenance, itβs a part time jobβnot passive income. However, itβs one of the most accessible ways for people other than the super-rich to invest using leverage.
REIT: Real Estate Investment Trust. An easy way to invest in real estate passively, and in a way that diversifies your geographical risk. These entities invest in real estate, handle all of the work to extract rents, sell

Scrolling through the incel forums is hard when they've practically made up their own language. I'm gonna share some of the most common words and their meanings, based on context clues. . Incel - involuntarily celibate, usually very misogynist because they're sexually frustrated and lonely Gymcel - an incel who uses going to the gym to cope with their inceldom or become more attractive Femcel - a female incel, unwelcome in the incel community because most incels hate women -cel (suffix) - a person who is an incel (ricecel is an asian incel) Chad - an attractive and successful alpha male who presumably gets laid constantly. The opposite of an incel. Alpha male - a man who is very masculine and dominant, successful and attractive Beta male - a man who is shy, unattractive, feminine, or has other qualities not typical of a masculine person Stacy - an attractive but stuck-up woman, a female Chad.

Meaning has expanded to mean anyone who is a beta, simp, or someone who said something you don't agree with Simp - someone who pines for women, usually staying in the friend zone and not having their feelings reciprocated Bluepill - a reference to The Matrix in which the bluepill represents continuing to live in a fantasy. Someone who is bluepilled does not see the world as the alt-right or incels see it, they believe what is accepted by most of society as fact (like that vaccines work or that racism is bad) Redpill - a reference to The Matrix in which the redpill represents seeing the truth. Someone who is redpilled sees the world "as it really is" such as women have easier lives than men, jews control everything, etc. Blackpill - the despair and misery that comes with women not wanting to have sex with you, minorities gaining rights and respect Suicidepill - hating something blackpilled so much that you want to commit suicide Dogpill - the idea that women would rather have sex with dogs than incels/ugly men (usually accompanied by NSFL beastiality content) please don't open a thread with this in a title, I learned the hard way so you don't have to Rope - the act of killing yourself Ascending - having sex with a woman/getting into a relationship and not being

It is simply meant to be a guide that will aid you in understanding all the different diverse colors of the rainbow we have within the Church of Covid. It is a great sin to not call someone by a term they identify as.
I don't know what else to call it but NPCs in this game use odd word choices when they talk, like they'll say "anyroad" instead of "anyway." I'd like to try the dialect for rp purposes. Is there a glossary for the slang terms npcs use?
Hi,
I'm reasonably new to DnD and this is my first time watching Critical Role; there are a few things that are confusing to me, and potentially to others too.
I have tried googling, but not knowing if these are terms used only by Critical Role (and have no other place in DnD, or are called something else), I am unsure what they mean.
X is up, and Y is on deck.
My understanding is that this means that Y is going to be next to play an action, but why is this only sometimes said, and not always? I assume it is to do with preparing what their move might be, but does this have any other feature in the game other than making a player prepare (after what may have been a few minutes since the last action was taken).
Temporary Hit Points
When a player (unnamed for spoilers), takes some of the damage from another player, they are given temporary hit points. Are these negative or positive?
How does absorbing some of the damage for a different player result in this player gaining health?
And it seems they have the ability to sometimes reflect this damage onto an opponent also. How does this work?
Are there any other terms that other people have come across in the streams that they don't understand, this could be a good place to describe them; unless they are described elsewhere.
Thanks.
Folks:
Lots of new eyeballs on this sub. All of the acronyms get confusing. Here is a humble attempt to collect some of the more common terms and phrases in one place. Comments/suggestions welcome. Also, when I started this I had no idea this post already existed (thanks u/Environmental_Neat53).

AH After hours. Also called Extended Hours trading. Stock market trading outside of the regular US market hours of 9:30am to 4:00pm.
Ape A retail investor who holds (does not sell) their shares. References to Planet of the Apes ("Apes together strong" and "Ape no fight ape")
CS Computershare. A company that provides stock registration services (keeps track of who actually owns which shares). Facilitates DRS.
DD Due Diligence. Researching a topic and providing evidence for your conclusions. The mother of all DD is found here
DRS Direct Registration of Shares. Placing share ownership in an individual investor's name.

I'm wondering if there is a glossary somewhere with a list of terms used in downloads titles.
For instance, I see the word "PROPER" quite a bit, and I've never known what it means. Google isn't helping.
I know a lot of the others - HDTV vs Webrip vs Bluray, etc, but there are quite a few terms that I don't know. Is there a list somewhere, or at the very least can somebody explain what PROPER signifies?
updated 12/02 - general update
updated 12/05 - terms related to Hakodate Fair update
updated 12/16 - terms related to Fairy Skill and Blessings
This is a short list of various terms used in the game and their descriptions. I'm not sure yet if a more full and complete guide is possible, but hopefully this list will be helpful. I still need to go through the game more in the future to fill in missing terms, if there's something missing feel free to inform me so I can check.
The glossary includes both terms specific to Fairy Sphere as well as general game related terms that may be used. There is also information regarding various materials, where to farm them, and the schedule of resource stages.

Hello fellow writers. I've been writing screenplays part-time for about 6 years. Not repped or produced yet, but a couple of scripts advanced at Nicholl and AFF and I was commissioned (uncredited) for a p1 rewrite of a feature that's currently in negotiations with Netflix. I was a newspaper reporter/editor for more than a decade, then worked in publishing, so fitting words into finite spaces comes reasonably naturally to me. I've also conducted corporate training on writing.
I love helping new screenwriters. I read/write notes (gratis) for as many new writer scripts as I have time for in a given month and I've been developing a series of tools to support them, especially to help with the minimal non-intuitive writing style required for a page-turner.
To give you a sense of my style and expertise, I've included an article, not yet published, lower in the post, on how to respond to notes.
Other completed tools include:
I would post a link, if permitted, where all of these are available for free download,
Please let me know through your upvotes whether this type of info would be useful here. (I'm fairly new to this subreddit so still figuring out the etiquette and protocols.)
Here's the blog piece (not yet published) on how to respond to notes.
The Five Stages of Notes and Feedback
The art of dealing effectively with notes on your screenplay
Accepting notes is perhaps the most punishing part of this screenwriting journey. This is true for all of us, but especially painful to new writers. Weβre artists, after all. Weβre a sensitive lot. And our first instinct when we receive a note about our βbabyβ is usually far from receptive.
It doesnβt have to be a particularly negative note for us to react defensively. We even react to suggestions for a change in formatting.
The truth is, no matter what we say we want when we share our work with others βbe it for paid coverage, a competition, or for feedback from other writersβ what we truly seek is over-the-to

I was thinking about writing some posts about this in sinhala because people have little to no idea about it. But the problem is I don't know the sinhala terms for most of it. I guess you can use google translate but can't be sure if those are the correct technical terms. Any help would be appreciated.
Hey folks! I just received a round of coverage from a festival with an interesting note - they suggested that a glossary of terms/definitions attached to the back of the screenplay might be helpful for the reader. Have any of you seen this tactic used before?
For context, my script is a high school sports movie that utilizes a fair amount of wrestling terminology. I explain what everything means in the script, but, as a result, the script is longer than it needs to be. I wonder if a reader would even bother going flipping back to the glossary while reading or if that would be too annoying. Please let me know your thoughts!
Has anyone come across a quick reference guide for the terms in the game? I'm looking to introduce new (to this style and theme game) players to it soon and a big barrier for me learning it in the past has been all the new words. Mythos, lore, ward, doom, focus, etc
I didn't see one on bgg. I'm assuming a lot of these terms are used across the arkham universe- maybe there's one for the other games?
I'd love to have something I can have out on the table for people to glance at. For my own learning I've used a ton of sticky notes but it doesn't make for a clean play setup.
I think this could be helpful for freshmen or others new to campus. Not really sure how to go about this, so feel free to offer suggestions on how to do it and what to include!
Being on a server with a large South American population, you often find yourself having trouble communicating with group members, particularly in more difficult content like heroics. I've certainly turned to google translate a few times, but I have no idea how coherent what it produces is to the actual players. For instance, is the word that google translates uses for "pull" the same word spanish players use when they tell someone to pull a pack? Or words like "tank", "healer", "boss" etc. It would be nice to know some of the particular MMO terms in Spanish just to be able to give some simple instructions.
As I gear up for my PMI-ACP test this month, I have massively updated my PMI-ACP cheat sheet: https://www.stellexgroup.com/blog/pmi-acp-exam-cheat-sheet-agile-pmp
For this test you not only have to understand and have lived agile processes, you have to remember a lot of terms: names of techniques, collaboration games, lists of principles,Β etc.Β Even moreso than the primary PMP exam I would say.
I've also updated my inventory of known PMI-ACP sample exams online, in total over 1,400 mock exam questions. The test costs ~$400 so worth going through them all to make sure you are ready. Good luck to anyone taking this test!
