[ Assist ] A potential kill that has been stolen by someone else. Usually by Darwi.
[ Beaver ] The second best map of all time - Halo 3's "Beaver Creek". Best played as God intended; shaved 'bare' of all weapons and power-ups - and everyone armed with shotguns.
[ Black Widow ] see Camper.
[ Boomstick ] Fancy name for a shotgun.
[ Bunny Hop ] The futile act of continuously jumping across the map in the hopes that Nibbles can't shoot you. Spoiler alert - he can.

[ Camo ] A low life cheating bastard.
[ Camo-mile ] a fruity herbal tea-bag delivered while using camo. New-age pretentious rubbish.

[ Camping ] It's not a legitimate strategy.
[ Casper ] Not as friendly as you think.
[ Charge ] The one military tactic Sponges are naturally good at. Just not so much on the staying alive bit.
[ Cheesing ] Using a cheap tactic to get kills. Eg. noob combos, armour colours that blend into the background of the map, spartan charging, and using active camo.
[ Chaffing ] Common tea-bagging injury. Best treated with lanolin (none of that aloe-vera bullshit).
[ Chill ] The opposite of sweaty. A game you are winning comfortably.

[ Clam Slam ] See V-bag.

[ Controller Advantage ] The sole reason someone using MNK always loses a gunfight to a controller user. See MNK Advantage.
[ Coughing Bullets ] A particularly spongy game. As in, "I was shot so many times that by the end I was literally coughing bullets".

[ Double Bag ] The act of tea-bagging two opponents at once - or two people bagging the same opponent. See Tea-bag.

[ Doughnut ] An acceptable score for any Sponge. Anything more is gravy. And nobody expects gravy on their doughnuts.
[ Exhausted ] The natural resting state of a sponge.
[ FFA ] Acronym 'Free for All'. Not the type of game where sponges generally excel. Best avoided.
[ Fortnite ] A bar too low. For most of us. But not Snoozer.
[ FOTUS ] So called "Fist Of The UnicornS". A helmet so obnoxiously pointy that it just screams tea-bag me. But be careful as the risk of injury is high.
[ FPS ] Acronym. First Person Sponges.
[ FR4C7URE ] Because we all love a good 7E4-B46.

[ Glowing ] Nothing good. Run away - someone has over-shield and/or is about to blow up.
[ Good Try ] Phrase. To fail.
[ Griefer ] Someone who is harassing you on purpose. Can often be a team-mate. There is a special place in Hell reserved for such people. But we forgive you Batty.

[ Guy ] One of the various members of the Rolle-clan; Big-Guy, Little-Guy, Tiny-Guy, Itty-bitty-Guy, Couch-Guy, and Somewhat-Aggressive-Guy. Often interchangeable as you can never be sure which one is behind the controller (or retired to the couch).
[ Gulch ] The best MP map. EVER. Despite the fact that it really doesn't play that well. Iconic.
[ Husky Raid ] Capture the flag. A tiny open corridor between you and the enemy. No where for a Sponge to hide. What else could go possibly go wrong? Oh, that's right - random weapons. Soak up the chaos.
[ Invite ] From Batty, with love.
[ KDA ] A slightly less irrelevant stat - but way more confusing.
[ Kill Streak ] Something that other people do. To us. A lot.

[ One Hump ] Or two? Which is indeed, a pertinent question.
[ Piston ] A co-ordinated team-bag where players alternate on the up and down motion like a bunch of engine pistons.
[ Plan ] We're still working it out. We definitely know it's not "Let's hold up in this room and let them come to us". But whatever it ends up being, I'm sure we will all love it when it comes together.
[ Rage Quit ] Has anyone seen Radster?
[ Red Shirt ] The Star Trek equivalent of a Damage Sponge.

[ Snoozer ] The most enthusiastic of all Sponges. Until 10pm, after which he is too exhausted to care.
[ Snoozer Manoeuvre ] Carefully positioning your warthog over a rocky outcrop so that none of the wheels are in contact of with the ground. Lulling your team-mates into a true sense of insecurity.
[ Sorry ] Standard apology. Usually delivered in a hurry by a teammate so that you know that the grenade that is just about to kill you wasn't deliberate.
[ Special Delivery ] When you "accidentally" attach a sticky 'nade to a teammate as they rush into battle. But worth it when their noble sacrifice delivers you a multi-kill.
[ Splash Zone ] The minimum distance you should stand from your Sponge teammate when they have rockets in hand. And no, a plastic poncho isn't going to help.

[ Sweat ] Someone who is better at Halo than you are. Also Sweaty; a game you are in the process of losing. The opposite of chill.
[ Tag 'n Bag ] The greatest game script in Halo history. We are still in awe. Thank you Exterrest1al.

[ Tuesday ] Halo night. Nothing else.
[ Truth ] Something none of us can handle. Especially when energy swords are involved.
