Asian Parent Syndrome

Asian Parent syndrome, often abbreviated as APS, is a genetic disorder prevalent in young Asians. It is characterized by a high level of expectation and discipline. Often, it can result in social disabilities. Also, common symptoms include excessive studying, fear of the letter "B," and high stress levels. Males are especially prone to this disease.
Hey, can Cho-Chang come to the party?
Nah, her APS is acting up again. It's forcing her to study.
Aw, dude, that sucks. I can't imagine living with that

I think Zhang's Asian Parent Syndrome is acting up again. He's hissing whenever he sees the letter "B."

Asian parent syndrome

A deeply integrated thought process in the minds of parents.

This is when an older family member attempts to constrict your identity and choice to fit their ideals.

Expressed through the need to constrict WIFI, the ability to lock doors and the negative emotion that’s expressed when your grade drops by 1 % or the amount of effort you put into things is 1% less than Harvard graduates.
“Hey how are ya doing”
Ug, my parents wacked me again for getting only a 94 instead of a 95 on my test”
“Ah, so Asian parent syndrome”

Utility beer 

Utility beer is the beer you keep around for the day-to-day moments when beer is a necessity to assist in pedestrian activities (golf, plumbing, yardwork, babysitting, staff meetings, Zoom calls). For the beer snob it is the beer you save for neighbors when they drop in at 3 p.m. on a Tuesday. It is differentiated from the actual high-end beer you save for special events, holidays, and special tastings.
Person 1: Dave, did you bring along those hazy craft IPA's so we could drink while cleaning Lyle's pool?
Person 2: Nope. I just have a bunch of utility beer that Steve dumped on me. Good enough for this. It is only 10:30 a.m.
