  • gorilla arm — The side-effect that destroyed touch-screens as a mainstream input technology despite a promising start in the early 1980s.

After more than a very few selections, the arm begins to feel sore, cramped, and oversized - the operator looks like a gorilla while using the touch screen and feels like one afterward. This is now considered a classic cautionary tale to human-factors designers; "Remember the gorilla arm!" is shorthand for "How is this going to fly in *real* use?".
