Dilution Fallacy

When a word is forcefully broadened to the point where it loses its purpose, not through natural evolution, but for the sake of inclusion or ideology. Broadening something so much it renders its purpose non existent or lesser as a result.
“The sky is grey

“What? It’s blue!”

Grey just means any color that isn’t white!””

“That’s just a dilution fallacy, grey means a specific color, spontaneously ditching that for your opinion is insane!”

Alternatively:

“Let Timmy have a drivers license!”

“But he can’t drive!”

“Don’t worry, drivers licenses are meant to include everyone! It just means anyone with an interest in qualifying for driving!”

“That’s just a dilution fallacy, it no longer means what it’s supposed to!”

diluting my brand 

Overusing or continually stating another persons coined phrase results in diluting their brand. People who imitate others often succeed in diluting their brand. When someone's brand is diluted they often lose respect and often become very angry at the person who diluted their brand. Diluting someones brand is an unspeakable crime often punished by death.
Ray said," Willie is diluting my brand by constantly saying "doin work."

Many white people often dilute the brand of rappers by using their lyrics in everyday conversations.

Time Dilation 

An effect something can have on time. When everything around you continues as normal but time within the dilation field runs fast/slow.
1. The time dilation effect inside the classroom turned seconds into hours.

2. I sat up talking to the beautiful girl without realising we were stuck in time dilation and the sun came up before I knew what happened!

Dilusionist

Someone who constantly lives in their own dilusional bubble. They always harp on about pulling "fitties" ALL the time; "riding ALL night long" and having great "footballing vision/skills". Realistically everyone knows a dilusionist's life is duller than an old grannies' haemorrhoid infected ass, but unfortunately they will never realise this!!
My mate told me he pulled a northern fitty at the weekend and ended up riding her all night long. What he didn't realise is that i saw the hairy munter leaving his house the next day and she said he fell asleep after spurting in his boxers......the man's a f*cking dilusionist!!

Time dilation 

When ur playing ur computer/gadget thingy you feel that one minute feels like one second. But when ur in math class or any other boring shit, one minute feels like an hour.

"Meaning based of time dilation; when you travel at the speed of light, you feel like your destination is closer than estimated. E.g. Here to nearest star-> 4.3 years viewed by us, but 1 year viewed by the ship."
I experienced some pretty shitty time dilation in math class today.

what the fuck?! I played computer for 4hrs and its 3am!!! SHEEEEEEIT!!!!!1
