Cricket Drop

Definition: The stomach-churning moment when someone detonates a verbal grenade so wildly inappropriate—like mocking bereavement or oversharing breakup novels via company email—that the entire room plunges into dead silence. You could hear a cricket drop in the void of collective…

Cringeoma

Definition: A metastasizing moment of workplace horror where one person’s wildly inappropriate comment or action triggers instant, suffocating silence across an entire office. Like a verbal grenade detonating in a conference room, it leaves colleagues frozen in shared disbelief, mentally…

Electoral College

Definition: A constitutional loophole allowing billionaires to purchase U.S. elections wholesale by surgically targeting swing-state voters with micro-influenced propaganda and cash, bypassing the popular vote entirely.

OG

Definition: That delicious moment when a clueless newbie tries to lecture the literal originator of something, blissfully unaware they’re talking to the source. Think being condescendingly told to “check the manual” by the guy who wrote the manual twenty years…

Manualjacking

Definition: Manualjacking happens when an ignorant person attempts to school the creator of a system, product, or concept using its official guidelines—unaware they’re lecturing the original architect.
