Vibectomy

Definition: The surgical removal of toxic people or energy vampires from your life after recognizing their soul-sucking impact. Inspired by that moment you’re typing angrily at 2 AM because Karen-from-accounting or your guilt-tripping aunt just had to text, and you finally block them mid-rant.

It’s the emotional equivalent of amputating gangrene—messy, decisive, and weirdly euphoric. Post-vibectomy, you’re lighter, sleep better, and mysteriously stop sighing like a deflating balloon during Zoom calls. Freedom tastes like silence and reclaimed sanity.

Example:

After the final guilt trip, Maria blocked her demanding cousin’s number mid-text, feeling an immediate wave of relief and euphoric freedom.

Jake finally performed a vibectomy on his draining friend group, cutting ties completely; he now sleeps soundly and enjoys the quiet sanity.
