Tag Group

A Facebook group that exists mainly for the purpose of tagging it in a discussion thread as a form of meme communication.

For example, one of the earliest Tag Groups on Facebook was, 'This isn't an airport, no need to announce your departure", which was born from the phenomenon of people who found it necessary to write a post about how they were mad and leaving a group. At which point, someone in the thread who knew about the tag group would put it on the discussion, prompting a laugh.

When you tag a group like that, Facebook puts the name of the group in bold, thus emphasizing its visual impact.

Therefore, users have added thousands and thousands of hilariously specific phrases as groups to the platform, giving the user lots of options of things to say in bold characters.

The bold name of the group is also a clickable link that takes you to the group, prompting more members and thus more taggers.

As mentioned before, the tag group mainly exists as a means for creating highlighted text in a discussion thread, however, some tag groups do become places of activity themselves.

For example, with "This is not an airport...", members who join the group will use it as a tag group, but then also screenshot hilarious examples of people rage-quitting other groups, and add it to the discussion timeline in the group for other members to enjoy and laugh at.

Mushary

Mushary - also known as bush-riding - is the act of intentionally jumping into a bush or shrubbery - preferably head-first, and typically whilst wearing a boiler suit.

This is done for the purpose of eliciting laughs or causing a scene and is widely documented and distributed on YouTube.

The word itself is a portmanteau of "Bush", "Shrubbery" and "Manchuria" - the site of a war in which soldiers were known to jump with abandon into trenches so as to escape gunfire.
Mushary is of course a much more frivolous past time.

A particularly successful act of Mushary will result in the sight of a rigid body sticking halfway out of a thick hedge, feet pointing towards the sky. The absurdity is the point.

Some enthusiasts might claim that it is a form of anti-capitalist, anti-authoritarian protest, but there is no such formal organization.
Grab your camera and put on a boiler suit - we're going out for some good 'ol Mushary.

Ice Cold Phatties

Large balloons filled with Nitrous Oxide AKA "Laughing Gas."

The term Ice Cold Phatties comes from the unscrupulous hucksters who try to sell them to you in a concert or festival parking lot. "Ice Cold" because they're straight from the metal tank and literally cold, and "Phatty" because the buyer always wants the largest balloon they can find.

Coldplayed

The act of being seen with the wrong person at the wrong time in a very public place - typically exposing an affair.

Comes from the moment at a Coldplay concert in July, 2025 where Astronomer CEO Andy Byron and CPO Kristin Cabot were caught cuddling on the Jumbotron "kiss cam" but immediately ducked and hid their faces, prompting Coldplay frontman Chris Martin to say, "either they're having an affair or are really shy."

They WERE having an affair, and both of their lives blew up.
