1. A moment where a memory is triggered with personal meaning to one or more person/s.
2. A moment that you had to witness to understand
3. A conversation between two or more people where tone and expressions are used instead of words.

Origin. In the early hours on an early day in 2013, two extremely handsome and intelligent Waikatoians, The Duke of Burgers and Lord Higgiliscious, were recollecting their evening after an intoxicating, self induced stupor night at a Sir NETSKY entertainment extravaganza. These two connoisseurs engaged in conversation regarding an arguement, an apology, a conversation of two indoctrinating harlots, the feeling of euphoria, the drop of thou art bass and the establishment of their brother in arms affection for each other. All this done with only using the word "bro".
It came to be that this art form of communication was to be established under the name of "per-so"
It was so funny you had to be there. Its a perso.

The word perso is a perso of The Duke of Burgers and Lord Higgiliscious

Rob Centa Personality Disorder 

A psychological syndrome comprising a mix of narcissism, troubles with social interaction, and sadism. Grandiose, and always ready to cast criticsm as jealousy, Rob Centas undermine institutions and organizations in which they are involved, and dehumanize the people with whom they associate. People usually notice signs when the subject struggles to appear affable in social situations. For example, the social media posts of a person with RCPD often appear to be contrived attempts to appear normal. RCPD is a hypothetical, experimental diagnostic category. RCPD is not found in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-IV-TR). As a hypothetical syndrome, RCPD could include aspects of narcissistic personality disorder (NPD) as well as traits of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) .
Person 1: Something's off about that guy. He gives me goosebumps.
Person 2: He probably has Rob Centa Personality Disorder.

This Ain’t Business Bitch, This Personal! 

This Ain’t Business Bitch, This Personal! — This is an example of the literary reversal theme wherein a well known oft quoted line or trope is inverted to show another facet of meaning to the idea. This example occurs in the movie New Jack City that takes the famous trope “THIS IS NOT PERSONAL; IT’S BUSINESS” and inverts it to make the point that ultimately narcotic drugs did destroy the uneasy symbiotic balance between the strange bed fellows: organized crime and organized policing.

In words of Wesley Snipes as Nino Brown in the same movie: MONEY TALKS AND BULLSHIT RUNS THE MARATHONS.

Can you say Iran Contra Drugs for Arms Scandal, boys and girls? I knew that you could!!!

No matter what anyone tries to pretend: IT’S ALWAYS PERSONAL TO SOMEONE.

ALWAYS.
Ice-T as Scotty Appleton in New Jack City: “This Ain’t Business Bitch, This Personal! I want to shoot you so bad my dick is hard!!”
