Needs to be nerfed

Used when something/someone is awesome in any way.
Originates from the gaming world (nerfing e.g. a weapon = making it weaker or less overpowered).

Strawberries need a nerf so badly!
Why is he so funny? He needs to be nerfed.

Nerf Gun Mafia

The pretentious "Big-tech" dorks of Silicon Valley known for annoying otherwise-productive & tech-savvy people, helping to destroy the first amendment with censorship, and growing a technocracy to replace not only themselves, but pretty much most of humanity.

While Mark Zuckerberg, Jack Dorsey, and the likes have always been fodder for critics of upstanding human behavior, 2020 really showed how powerful the Nerf Gun Mafia has become, and how dangerous it is to America as well as the rest of the world.

North Carolina Nerf Gun

When you stuff a woman's ass full of foam ear plugs and wait for her to fart them out so you can catch them in your mouth.

We did the North Carolina Nerf Gun last night after my wife had some spicy jalapeño poppers and margaritas at the Mexican Restaurant for her birthday dinner.

silent nerf

When the developers of a game do not include a change to the game in the changelogs, usually to "nerf" or decrease the effectiveness of an ingame mechanic or item. This is done to avoid angering the community, but generally ends up doing the opposite.

The devs silent nerfed the pyro, how am I meant to play now?

Shadow Nerf

When game developers nerf a game aspect/character and don't announce it or include the change in any patch notes.

Did the new character get a shadow nerf? His fire rate feels much slower than it did before the new update, but I don't see any changes to him in the patch notes.
