*'''NIMBY''': a person who objects to the siting of something perceived as unpleasant or potentially dangerous in their own neighborhood, such as a landfill or hazardous waste facility, especially while raising no such objections to similar developments elsewhere.<br/> &nbsp;
*'''NIMPLE''': '''N'''ot '''I'''n '''M'''y '''P'''ersonal '''L'''if'''eE'''. A culture common among physicians, clinicians, and mental health practitioners and social workers such as LCSW, CADC and QMHP who work with houseless drug addicts.

As an example, City of Portland's OMF-HUCIRP program coordinator Katie Lindsay advocates for restrooms and safe drug injection sites<ref>https://oregonrecyclers.org/sites/oregonrecyclers.org//files/aor_2018_fall_forum_presentations.pdf</ref>(page 26), and suggested to homeless people to RV camp in Walmart parking lots.<ref name="HUCIRPLindsay"/>(page 8) However, When there was an impending threat that such destination was about to establish near her own personal house in Sherwood, she became a vocal opponent and voiced oppositions on the account of speculated "transient activities" "public intoxications" and "heavy crime"<ref name="HUCIRPLindsay"/>, which are essentially the same thing she is encouraging by promoting safe injection sites in some other people's backyard.
