Oversight

by HuniSenpai on Jan 12, 2020 10:02:12

When you make a serious mistake but you don't want to admit that you fucked up, you say that "there was an oversight." Used in a professional setting as a futile attempt to make serious errors sound better.

Example:
"WHAT THE FUCK MAN WHY IS THERE BLOOD ALL OVER BOB?!! WHAT DID YOU DO?!!?"

"There was an oversight, alright? I didn't know the gun was loaded"
"YOU MOTHERFUCKER"

involuntary oversight

Example:
"We will add your pay raise beginning next week. The paperwork was mismanaged. We apologize for this involuntary oversight.

citation oversight

by enviroscientist on Sep 02, 2020 11:55:43

Citation Oversight is weasel wording for admission of plagiarism. It is a cowardly way of admitting plagiarism by professors in top-ranked universities who have purloined ideas from others, but a claim of 'citation oversight' as opposed to an admission of plagiarism protects the professors from being fired from their jobs. Note that this protection mechanism is a privilege which is available only to White Professors and Black professors who plagiarize will be promptly fired from their jobs.

Example:
Q: Dude, did you hear about the plagiarism charge against Prof. McD of the ivy league university who lifted ideas from a newspaper? A: Yeah, he was a White guy and so the university officials declared it a case of 'citation oversight' and let him off.

Creative oversight

by Hym Iam on Oct 24, 2022 10:02:51

Hey, Todd, I know you don’t want the creative oversight but don’t have any scenes in the sequel where The Joker acquires his iconic arsenal. That is hack shit. There is no reason he wouldn’t have his joke pistol with a flag that says “Bang.” There’s no reason he wouldn’t already have a crowbar. And include some of the chemistry. The Joker is a biochemical genius. He created psychopathic fish. You need to tie some things into the canon.

Example:
Hym “I know you don’t want the creative oversight but that’s the problem with the Disney Marvel movies. No creative oversight. Which is why they are trash.”
