Evac156's definitions
In poker, a full house or full boat made up of cards of very low rank. The low valued cards are themselves referred to as rags, but when they become part of a full boat, they suddenly become a very strong hand. A rag boat generally occurs when a player finds himself involuntarily playing a very bad hand, or chooses to play them with the knowledge that it's a very bad gamble. Therefore, a rag boat is mostly luck. A rag boat also occurs in the sense of a hand that would have been made if such a bad gamble had been taken, but wasn't.
Player 1: "If only I'd played that three-eight, I would've ended up with a full boat and won."
Player 2: "It was better to fold, you'll go broke hoping for a rag boat."

Get the rag boat mug.Uninformed. Ignorant of the situation. Not receiving appropriate information. Think of "the loop" as being a communications channel, and therefore being out of the loop means no one is communicating with you to get you the information you need.

Get the brain candy mug.A vague measurement of time, typically applied to delivery of a software project. It is used sarcastically, to indicate that the product has missed one or several promised delivery dates, and rather than embarrassing themselves by announcing and missing another deadline, the developer is simply saying it will be ready "real soon now." When someone says a product is due out "real soon now" chances are they really don't expect it any time soon. Also abbreviated as RSN.
First they told us that the product would be done end of first quarter, then they changed it to late second quarter, and since we're well into the fourth quarter, we can expect to see it real soon now.

Get the stripper fur mug.Derogatory term used in online gaming (see MMORPG, MMOG) to describe someone who has not earned the equipment or character they are using. Often high-level players will use eBay to sell premium equipment they have earned in-game, or sometimes sell an entire account, with all characters and equipment, exchanging real-world money for in-game items. This practice is generally discouraged by the companies that produce and host the games. Someone who has acquired their character or gear in this way is generally recognizable by inept game-play, which would not be expected of someone who has actually earned their position.
