(v) the act of depriving a substance of oxygen while it goes through cell respiration. Several things can come of fermentation,lactic acid in an animal cell and ethanol (alcohol) in a plant cell. In certain plant cells such as grain and grapes adding yeast during the fermentation process can cause it to create desirable alcohol such as wine and different types of hard alcohol or beer. It should be noted that drinking alcohol from grain plain is not practical and it must be added to a substance to create an edible drink e.g. vodka
The fermentation of grapes result in wine.

Someone who sits on a couch for far too long is fermenting, and should generally be beaten to a pulp and stuffed into a bottle with brewers yeast for two weeks. This creates an incredibly potent and mind numbing alcohol... Goes great with twice baked potatoes.

The act of staying in your room for days at a time, not showering, and avoiding social interaction to the point of becoming a greasy, unhealthy slob. Usually accompanied by heavy use of the internet and/or video games. A fermenter's natural habitat is typically found in the dark corners of sites like 4chan, reddit, and twitch.

Once you start to ferment, it can be hard to get out, usually requiring some sort of wake-up call from the outside world. Some fermenters never get this wake-up call or ignore it, resulting in a lifetime spent mostly in their rooms.

Fermentation can lead to later complications such as depression, anxiety, anti-sociality, obesity, diabetes, and more.
