Huh, there must be a lot of these. Maybe the one I thought of is no good.

How do truckers use that?
|
|
|
|

Comp Sci & Surfers I get, I don't want to think of trucks surfing (riding the air wave cause by a larger objects bow wave!)
|
|
|

|

Well that's what I call it (UK), I do remember a drunken conversation (in Belgium of all places!) where it was referred to as surfing maybe it's the EU standard then...

'Jargon', isn't that what they do in Norfolk to keep fit?

Meh. I know you can do better.

How do surfers (beach bums) use that?

I may check that from home. Until then I need to try jacking into the HR system here.

Gas.
Computer Scientist: Damn, that burrito I had at lunch sure gave me gas.
Surfer: Like, riding that gnarly wave was a gas, dude.
Trucker: My truck is out of gas, good buddy.

There are some good alternative answers. The term I was looking for is "flip-flop".
|
|

Nice, had to google how a trucker uses that term. Now my mind can take a break from curiousity.

You can add politicians to that list.

Having been a surfer, a trucker, and now a computer scientist, I do have the definitive answer:
SH*T!!
For the surfer, when another (idiot/stupid) surfer slams or cuts them off.
For the trucker, well, it's just part of the defacto lingo.
For the CompSci, when they realize they don't have a valid backup of their data.
For your choice of word, that being "flip-flop," had you also included "politician," [ ] then *everyone* would have easily and readily guessed it!

I didn't think of politicians in time.

I dunno, when I think of politician i think of (your definitive word) "Sh*t", "criminal", "liar", then "flip flop".
