quantum bogodynamics
(foldoc) | quantum bogodynamics
/kwon'tm boh"goh-di:-nam"iks/ A theory that characterises the
universe in terms of bogon sources (such as politicians,
used-car salesmen, TV evangelists, and suits in general),
bogon sinks (such as taxpayers and computers), and bogosity
potential fields. Bogon absorption causes human beings to
behave mindlessly and machines to fail (and may also cause
both to emit secondary bogons); however, the precise mechanics
of bogon-computron interaction are not yet understood.
Quantum bogodynamics is most often invoked to explain the
sharp increase in hardware and software failures in the
presence of suits; the latter emit bogons, which the former
absorb.

/kwon'tm boh`goh·di:·nam´iks/, n.
A theory that characterizes the universe in terms of bogon sources (such as
politicians, used-car salesmen, TV evangelists, and suits in general),
bogon sinks (such as taxpayers and computers), and bogosity potential
fields. Bogon absorption, of course, causes human beings to behave
mindlessly and machines to fail (and may also cause both to emit secondary
bogons); however, the precise mechanics of the bogon-computron interaction
are not yet understood and remain to be elucidated. Quantum bogodynamics is
most often invoked to explain the sharp increase in hardware and software
failures in the presence of suits; the latter emit bogons, which the former
absorb. See bogon, computron, suit, psyton.
Here is a representative QBD theory: The bogon is a boson (integral spin,
+1 or -1), and has zero rest mass. In this respect it is very much like a
photon. However, it has a much greater momentum, thus explaining its
destructive effect on computer electronics and human nervous systems. The
corollary to this is that bogons also have tremendous inertia, and
therefore a bogon beam is deflected only with great difficulty. When the
bogon encounters its antiparticle, the cluon, they mutually annihilate each
other, releasing magic smoke. Furthermore 1 Lenat = 1 mole (6.022E23) of
bogons (see microLenat).
