Miscellaneous Entertainment Event

Used to describe something that is interesting, but lacks any suitable labels. Usually said in a tongue-in-cheek way, when one is overwhelmed with the tackiness or horrible-ness of a performance.

Companion: "I don't know what to make of the school play last night... I wish I could say it was good..."

Me: "It was a miscellaneous entertainment event."

Traffic Light Event Horizon

While approaching a green traffic light when driving, it's the point you make a mental note of, X feet before the intersection, where you're going through light even if it turns to yellow. X varies on the mph of the vehicle and the risk-tolerance of the driver. A feeling of relaxation often accompanies passing the event horizon of a traffic light, in particular when in a rush or for known long red lights.

I thought for sure we were already passed the traffic light event horizon, but Becky slammed on the breaks when the light turned yellow and my blue coconut slush fell and spilled all over the floormat or her Hyundai Elantra.

The Yves Event

When someone is so enthralled with a subject that people begin affiliating them with it exclusively, weather they're obsession is driven by love or hate for the subject.

"Chris? He's definitely a furry. They're all he ever talks about."
"No actually it's the total opposite, he fuckin hates em."
"Oh shit, the Yves Event strikes again."

Homelander Event

Homelander Event (noun): A hypothetical scenario where a heavily militarized U.S. police officer or federal agent, emulating the psychotic superhero from The Boys, intentionally or not, snaps and fires live rounds indiscriminately into a crowd of civilians.

Context: The term highlights the terrifying convergence of three factors: the influx of military-grade weapons to police departments (via programs like the 1033 program), lowered recruitment standards, and a documented pattern of officers losing composure and using excessive force on crowds (e.g., with rubber bullets during the 2020 protests).

The way that cop was screaming at us walking past the protest with his finger on the trigger, oof. Could have sworn we were seconds from a Homelander Event.

Arming federal agents with LMGs is just begging for a Homelander Event; they act like they're untouchable.

event autism

The specific, oddly focused mindset that takes over an MMO player during in-game limited time events, often resulting in them shunning all game content in order to just play the event and grind out every last drop of that time limited content. Also applies to mobile format games which mirror the limited time event model.

Man, I'd love to hit up the new raid, but I'm in total Event Autism mode here, I need to grind out the Summer dailies on my alts then get a few hundred more tokens to get that next cosmetic before I can call it quits for the day.
