b) World of Warcraft was mainstreamlined so that even a computer from the mid-90s would be able to run the game, albeit with some graphical lag.

c) When Scott Pilgrim was mainstreamlined for the movie, Wallace Wells was turned into a slut and given dubious motives for kicking Scott out because Hollywood has serious problems depicting gay men in another manner.

mainstreaminization 

Something that the greedy capitalist scum fucks at the top of our unsustainable corporate culture have bought out.
COUNTRY MUSIC! used to be about working people, now its about BULLSHIT. HIP HOP AND RAP, used to be about african american culture and showing the world what it is like being black in america. Now it is about bling, bitches and money because the music industry thinks they can make more money selling shit that will perpetuate stereotypes rather than smash them. Nashville, Branson, Memphis, hip hop and rap have undergone mainstreaminization.

It is said of the situation where a person has the bad luck to make contact with his testicles against an undefined surface or object, intentioned or not.
Given the nature of the word, it is more appropriate to design cases where the interaction is made with a moving object, for example, a ball.
Although it is extremely painful for the victim, it tends to be considerably funny to people who witness it.

Nerd neck 

A "human" that spends so much time playing video games that their posture is level nerd neck. Everytime anyone goes tryhard they hunch down and their neck gets longer there fore a nerd neck is always hunched down cause they're always going try hard. In other words a nerd neck is a try hard, since their neck is 100% longer than the average human being due to playing too many video games and taking them serious, nerd necks are not even considered human anymore but something more sad. Nerd necks are often found on fortnite, their natural habitat usually being tilted towers.
