mouth mask

A mask worn in a fashion that covers the mouth only. This leaves the nose free for easier breathing while creating the impression that one is conforming to COVID protocols. This style has been observed everywhere from Walmart checkout lines to presumptive nominees for President of the United States.

participation trophy

A trophy that is awarded, usually to a child, simply for participating. It is based upon the idea that this will enhance their self-esteem and somehow make them better adults. Despite the fact that there is absolutely no empirical evidence to support this idea, the trophies continue to be awarded. These children ultimately become young adults who can't quite understand why employers in the real world do not share their exalted vision of themselves. Disillusioned and bitter, with plenty of time on their hands, many participated in the Occupy Wall Street movement. Ironically, no trophies were awarded for participation in this event.

education bubble

A state of affairs where a recent college graduate comes to the realization that the job that he expected would pay for the school loans for his overpriced education does not, and possibly will not, exist. The academic equivalent of the guy who took a 400K mortgage for a one bedroom condo where you can see the water if you stick your head far enough out the bathroom window.
It's ramen noodles again tonight, honey. Sorry, education bubble.
