A kill switch is a safety mechanism that is used to shut down a device in an emergency situation. If you’re using a circular saw to cut wood and your arm gets stuck in the path of the blade, flicking the kill switch will probably save your life. You find kill switches mostly on mechanical and electrical equipment, but humans can have kill switches too. I have a coworker who gets a little rowdy from time to time, but I discovered a phrase that acts like a kill switch. Whenever he’s getting too annoying, I’ll say “anus mucus” and he will instantly shut up and calm down. It works every single time. It makes me wonder if other people have a kill switch or some phrase that I can exploit to make them compliant to my will. Not every kill switch is as effective as “anus mucus” though.
