My most recent favorite is "malding." It applies so amazingly well to the :grillman: that rage because my lawn isn't a perfect 2 centimeter high rectangle of bleak green virtue signaling, and instead there's pollinating bugs, birds, lizards, and an actual ecosystem of native plants out there. I can see them malding in real time sometimes, glaring as they shuffle by. They so hate when anyone tells them what to do but want you to conform, always.

Being Jokerfied by the last few years, I admit the concept of Jokerification still tickles me. :joker-dancing:

    Big Bang Theory is a bootlicking crypto-bigoted misogynistic corporate nightmare product, but somehow that artificial meme word it came up with is excellent for summarizing a certain mindset.

        You sure?

        I thought the whole point of the Sheldon character's "BAZINGA!" thing was to artificially create a catch phrase and aggressively self-promote it. Did he ever name drop GTA or were the writers of that show that lazy and dishonest?

          I was going to search it, but apparently there is a g*mer called "Bazinga" who plays GTA, so the search results were hopelessly polluted. OH well.
