1. M-Shift
The abbreviation of the phrase Mental Shift.

An M-Shift, or mental shift, is a therianthrope-related occurence wherein a therian feels their mindset, or current mentality, becomes that of their phenotype, or animal.

An M-Shift may be brought upon by many environmental and/or sensory factors, such as weather, certain people, smell, sound, taste, etc.

How intensely an m-shift is felt, and how long they last, vary from therian to therian.

See also: P-Shift, Astral Shift, Suntherian Shift, and Phantom Limbs.
I had an M-Shift about a week back; my first in quite some time.
2. P-Shift
The abbreviation of Physical Shift.

In theory, a P-Shift would include any physical change from a therian to that of their phenotype, or animal.
However, as there are no documented cases of people physically becoming animals, P-Shifts are fantasy and nothing more.

See also: M-Shift, Astral Shift, and Phantom Limbs.
She claims to P-Shift? Pfft, just ignore her.
3. Ph-shift
A Ph-shift, or Phantom shift, is a therianthrope-related occurence, when a therian feels the limbs of their phenotype. They can feel their animal limbs, yet they do not physically exist.
A ph-shift can be brought by similar factors of a m-shift, occur randomly, or can even happen at will.
Many therians say a ph-shift is the closest thing to a P-shift.

I had a ph-shift recently, and it can conflict with the human limbs.
4. M-Shift
Furrys believe the have mental shifts into whatever animal, dragon, amphibian or whatever crazy stupid shit whack job furrys believe in. Has nothing to do with normal people.

Batshit insane if you ask me. Yiff in hell furfags!
Today I went to the dentist's office and experienced an involuntary M-Shift, being aware the whole time. I began growling and biting down on her tools, spooking the poor human quite a bit with my wolfish antics. I enjoyed it though.
5. M-Shift
Short for "mental shift." This is a term therianthropes and otherkin who wish to make excuses for their sometimes bizarre and animalistic behavior use to avoid taking responsibility for their actions; they believe that by claiming that they've "mentally shifted" into their spirit's supposed true form that they should receive pity no matter what they do.
I didn't mean to go on a murderous rampage on the full moon. Please excuse me: I m-shifted into a werewolf mentality and I couldn't help myself!
6. Sweating Like a Whore on Night Shift
Sweating like a Whore on Night Shift. Sweating profously like a Prostitute after servicing one sleazy client after the other in a marathon of immoral transactions. In the same league as "Sweating like a Rapist" or "Sweating like a Paedophile in a playground"!
Betty: Oh the heat would kill you in here!
Mark: I know, I'm Sweating like a Whore on Night Shift!
Betty: Less of the swearing you!
Mark: Aw right then, I'm sweatin like Pavarotti in a cake shop!
Betty: Better!
7. sock hole shift
switching sock with a hole to the other foot, where it will be in a different spot. in 'ancient' times socks would be 'darned', sewn and/or repaired. now that we have a 'disposable' society, one simply throws the offending sock in the "gobbige" can. (or rag bag!)

sock hole shift accomplishes only the delay of this process. of course, if a hole actually comes around, it usually isn't long before the heel goes too...
john had a toe poking through a sock hole, time to sock hole shift; he thought!
