Genghis Grudge

Definition: The catastrophic consequence of spectacularly failing to read the room when dealing with someone known for disproportionate, world-ending rage. Specifically, doubling down on insulting a notoriously patient warlord after they’ve already given you a chance to apologize. This involves actions like executing envoys and sending back heads as “gifts,” guaranteeing your entire civilization gets Thanos-snapped off the map within two years. It’s the ultimate “fuck around and find out” scenario, where the finding out involves millions dead and your empire becoming a historical footnote.

Example: “Dude, did you see Kyle mouth off to the bouncer again after getting a warning? Total Genghis Grudge move. Now he’s banned for life and the whole squad got kicked out.” “Yeah, he pulled a full Shah Muhammad II. Thought he was untouchable until the Mongol-level consequences hit.”
