So I had the occasion to attempt to describe a certain former big-boss, a certain notorious retired marine, to the Renaissance Man. "Like 50% of John McAffee," I settled on.
It was a useful and evocative unit. Later![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
norabombay and I discussed it. A six McAffee problem, unlike a three-patch problem, would be resolved by removing McAffee units from the situation, rather than deploying patches until the number was reached.
Sadly, having this usage reach common jargon levels would probably give the dude an unnecessary ego boost...
