Word: satisficer Part of Speech: noun Etymology: From satisfice + -er. 1. One who satisfices (rather than optimizes). Example: The end of the poem ["The Road Not Taken" by Robert Frost] does not actually depict the narrator looking back at a bold decision with pride. Rather, the narrator is projecting to a future in which they will tell the story of this choice as if it mattered, when really it made no difference. The poem is about agonizing over meaningless decisions. Frost wrote it for a friend of his, Edward Thomas, who dithered over which path to take when they went on walks together, and then would later regret that they hadn’t gone a different way. Thomas was falling prey to Fredkin’s paradox: the more similar our options, the less choosing between them matters, but the harder choosing between them is. Thus, we’re liable to spend the most energy on the least important decisions. Frost's poem dovetails with the work of the Nobel laureate Herbert Simon, who coined the term "satisficing" — a portmanteau of satisfy and suffice — to describe how, in real decision making, we can't actually optimize. We are not equipped to accurately evaluate all our options. We must settle for good enough. And, Simon, thought, we should be eager to settle for good enough. Simon referred to himself as an ‘incorrigible satisficer.’

Word: fanwank Part of Speech: noun Etymology: From fan + wank. See fan (“fanatic, enthusiast”). British writer Craig Hinton claimed to have coined the term in the context of Doctor Who fandom. 1. Explanations invented by fans (of a film franchise, television series, etc.) to gloss over mistakes in continuity. Labels: derogatory, slang, uncountable Example: Its just fanwank with no support in the lore - and not even good fanwank. As you said yourself, Malal does not exist in 40k - and he's never existed. And no, that's not a joke in the vein of 'I've never seen a stealth aircraft' either. 2. Elements added to a television program or similar entertainment that appeal to avid fans but are of little interest to outsiders. Labels: slang, uncountable Example: Fan-producers seem to have integrated 'fanwank' into the new series, but not in a way that reproduces the show's 1980s history, or alienates non-fans. Example: What they favor is good old fanwank: continuity references, old monsters, and overcomplicated explanations of trivial plot details. If these are perceived as the voice of fandom, then catering to the fans means producing texts that the general audience would find at best boring, at worst impossible to watch.
Word: fanwank Part of Speech: verb Etymology: From fan + wank. See fan (“fanatic, enthusiast”). British writer Craig Hinton claimed to have coined the term in the context of Doctor Who fandom. 1. Of fans, to invent explanations to gloss over mistakes in continuity. Labels: slang Example: See above on Charlie's Angels. They never seemed to have lives of any sort and weren't interesting to me; they always seemed like soft porn for the guys, but a lot of girls fanwanked and fanficced them into more, so I guess they could qualify. Example: She accepts, and tell Dwight that Philip was his son all along, but she needed to know he wanted to be with her for her, and just to have a child. Which completely contradicted the DNA test Dwight took at the end of last season, and is also just a crappy thing to do to someone. I almost started fanwanking the first time I saw this ("Maybe The Senator had the DNA tests switched?") before throwing my hands up.
