bradbury

To win as a result of miraculous circumstances, despite being in a losing position. Especially in the case of sporting triumph. Not to be confused with "homer".

Comes from Australian speed skater Steven Bradbury's win in the 1000m at the 2002 Winter Olympics when every other skater crashed on the last corner.

Guy: Holy shit. You were coming last and yet won the race when every other car was involved in a massive pile-up.

Driver: Looks like I just pulled a bradbury.

Prolog

A trippy 70's computer programming language that uses recursion like a motherfucker. It is a logical programming language designed for expressing human logic instead of specific machine instructions. Unlike procedural languages such as C, it has very little practical use outside of a university environment.

Uni student #1: Holy shit. Recursively manipulating lists in Prolog is totally screwing with my head! Btw, why the fuck is my program stuck in a loop?

Uni student #2: You've got to create a base case for your predicate. Otherwise it just backtracks up the list and down again.

Uni student #1: Thanks. Fuck. I don't know if I'm gonna pass this course.

Uni student #2: Don't worry. It's not as if this shit is useful anyway.

guitar solo

An extension of a guitarists' cock.

Sane man: Gee, I really didn't wanna hear that.
