In the world of The Sims 2, this word is a euphemism for sexual intercourse, in a very generic sense.
Game characters will actually do a dance in which they twist and contort their necks, backs, arms, and legs in ways which would be either very painful or impossible in real life, but which allows the game to have an ESRB T rating whilst still creating the illusion from the partially-obscured woo-hoo-capable object are engaging in something closer to a more realistic sexual position.
In the Simlish language, the term "woohoo!" is used more or less the same as in English, to denote sudden pleasure or pleasant shock. In-game, the act and phrase are both accompanied by the couple making noises, including cat shrieks, dog barks, truck horn noises, and even a female orgasm purr; usually accompanied by magical chimes to indicate pregnancy.
In the world of the game's community, the term has taken the place of "Play in Bed," a term borrowed from the original Sims that did not cause pregnancy in that game. Unlike the original Sims, Sims 2 partners will only woo-hoo in their underwear, unless a hack is applied telling them to do it in the nude. Such hacks are only now available on adult subscription sites.
The related sexual content to the "woo-hoo" feature has been the cause of much controversy, as there is argument over exactly how much sexual content is appropriate in a T-rated game.
"Woo-hoo"-ready objects include the Love Tub, any double bed, and most cars, as well as changing rooms in the shops.
The term was further popularized by its use in the seventh episode of The Strangerhood by Rooster Teeth Productions, where Catherine offers to bang Dutchmiller using the term.

Gal: "What? Why does it say 'woo-hoo' on the screen?"
Guy: "Oh. That just means that those two Sims want sex."
Gal: "But they're not even in love, let alone married!"
Guy: "That's because I installed LizzLove's Swinger's Bed Hack when you weren't looking, now they'll woo-hoo just as long as they're of legal age."
Gal: "Jerk."

Get the gamefic mug.Abbreviated form of "hidradenitis suppurativa," a rare, non-contagious disease of the skin and sweat glands that often results in secondary bacterial infections of often medically-resistant strains.
The most common symptoms are intense pain in breakout areas, hard boils and tender abscesses on skin, and under-skin channels between these which feed infected blood to one another.
Euphemized terms for the disease are "appocrine acne" and "acne inversa," since the smaller abscesses resemble just severe topical acne.
More complicated infections, usually involving underway channels sometimes referred to as "HS sinuses," lead to recurring reinfection and eventual "coming-to" of the wounds, which often explode or begin leaking infected blood, often accompanied with either hard balls or soft masses of pus, and blood clots. In some cases, fat cell tissue may also be disrupted and exit the wound along with the impurities. These advanced wounds often never fully heal, and healed tissue is often scar tissue that lasts a lifetime.
The disease is also known as "fox-den" and Velpeau's Disease.
It usually attacks women rather than men, but can be particularly embarrassing to men, leading in some cases to loss of social ambition and abnormal shyness or awkwardness in particular social situations. It is believed to be caused by a combination of genetic disorders and faulty sweat glands or hair follicles, though can also indicate a hormone imbalance. It is known to influence and be influenced by bouts of depression.
Because it does not thoroughly discriminate, but has a preference for the chest, HS can infect nearly all skin and sweat glands on the body. It often prefers areas with lots of skin-on-skin contact, leading to frequent leg and even genital breakouts, which may be confused by someone naive for an STD breakout.
While not caused by any virus and not being an STD, the genetic disorder that predisposes skin to HS is easily inherited. The appearance of the boils on the victim is often comparable to certain STD breakouts in terms of ugliness, which can serve as a considerable deterrent to sexual activity in some cases.
Breakouts range in size from having the diameter of a ballpoint pen to the diameter of a pinball to the diameter of a golf ball. In rare extremes, they may even grow to the diameter of a baseball.
There is no official cure, but several treatments are under investigation.

Guy: "No. Just a recurring skin and sweat gland infection. You won't get it; I just don't think you really care to see it, especially if it starts bleeding."

Get the White Page of Death mug.The Leibniz-Newton Effect, or LNE, signifies when two alike or similar products or ideas are either created or discovered by two different individuals with no clear evidence that Guy 1 and Guy 2 had any influence on each other.
The term is derived from the fact that Gottfried Leibniz and Isaac Newton both discovered calculus, without knowing about each other until after they had both attempted to get their work published.
In the world of animation, it is said to be the effect of two studios coming up with very similar ideas for a movie with no clear proof that one truly did steal the idea from the other.

With no real solid evidence that either one truly inspired the other, it remains plausible that the release of the eerily similar "Flushed Away" by Dreamworks and "Ratatouille" by Pixar is an instance of the Leibniz-Newton Effect, wherein which great minds think way too much alike.
