Terms from BITOG of old game

[TomYoung]

Here’s my thought: even on BITOG, we fall back on slogans and buzzwords which actually detract from our discussion and thinking. To demonstrate this, I thought we should come up with words and terms that used to everywhere on the site, but are now rare … indications that they were not that thoughtful or useful initially. Feel free to add yours. I’ll start:

Orange Can of Death
German Castrol
Extended drain Interval
Frankenblend

What do y’all have?

Are only nouns to be listed here?

Also, the waning of a word's use might be due to developments rather than thoughtlessness or uselessness.
Use of the term 'German Castrol' has faded as the product is no longer available.
The term "German Castrol" is as useful as ever as it is a specific product. It just doesn't come up as often.

I think we can open this to verbs, prepositions, conjunctions, modifiers. Really, any parts of spech. Heck, punctuation, emoticons…I’m open.
