BFD — Big Fucking Deal
Abbreviation used (often in speaking) to hide the F-word
1. used ironically as an interjection to indicate that a person or thing is considered unimportant or unimpressive. All I can say is BFD — him quitting the job is not exactly big news.
2. a person or thing of great importance or consequence; a big deal. It was the kind of BFD that impacted the whole industry.

while I’m finally writing the dissertation itself (not the articles, descriptions of results and other bits and pieces) here are some nice research article names for remembering there is some fun in science🙃

“President Woodrow Wilson was once asked about how long it took him to prepare for a speech. He replied:
That depends on the length of the speech. If it is a 10-minute speech it takes me all of two weeks to prepare it; if it is a half-hour speech it takes
me a week; if I can talk as long as I want to it requires no preparation at
all. I am ready now.
It reminds me of the famous quote attributed to a variety of great thinkers and writers: “If I had more time, I would have written a shorter letter.””
