Definition

To calculate a company's EPS, you divide the company's net income (minus dividends) by its number of outstanding shares. The higher a company's EPS is, the more profitable it is (in most cases). However, while comparing companies' EPSes can be useful when selecting investments, it should not be the sole basis of your investment decision.

squarters

A crass drinking game that's exactly what it sounds like—a crude variation of quarters where participants attempt to flick a coin from between their butt cheeks into a cup. It's the kind of game you'd only find at the most questionably memorable parties.

moodle

A linguistic Swiss Army knife deployed when your brain refuses to cooperate with actual vocabulary, also moonlighting as a mild insult and an invitation to hang out. It's the verbal equivalent of shrugging while simultaneously trying to communicate three different things—inefficient, but somehow it works.
