RAS Syndrome 

Redundant Acronym Syndrome Syndrome. It's the phenomenon of using acronyms to describe a noun, when the noun is itself already in the acronym. A short list is included below.
ATM Machine (Automatic Teller Machine Machine), PIN Number (Personal Identification Number Number), RAID Array (Redundant Array of Independent Disks Array), AC/DC Current (Alternating Current/Direct Current Current), LAN Network (Local Area Network Network), RPG Game (Role Playing Game Game), ISBN Number (International Standard Book Number Number), HIV Virus (Human Immunodeficiency Virus Virus), and RAS Syndrome itself (Redundant Acronym Syndrome Syndrome).

RAS Syndrome 

The unfortunate affliction demonstrated when someone feels the need to state the last word of a 3 letter acronym, as if it wasnt part of the acronym in the first place.
I forgot my PIN number when I went to use the ATM machine!

(translation) I forgot my Personal Identification Number number when I went to use the Automatic Teller Machine machine!

You will note the irony of the Acronym itself, which stands for Redundant Acronym Syndrome syndrome, which is a RAS syndrome itself!

Rancid Ass Syndrome (RAS) 

extreme gas thats smell is so unbearable it will clear out a room. It is so awful it has the strength to penatrate through layers of blankets, even comforters and make your partner want to vomit. It is so potent that it even smells horrid to the fartee themselves
My Rancid Ass Syndrome (RAS) was so bad that it woke my boyfriend from his sleep and he had to leave the room because he was dry heaving.
It is said of the situation where a person has the bad luck to make contact with his testicles against an undefined surface or object, intentioned or not.
Given the nature of the word, it is more appropriate to design cases where the interaction is made with a moving object, for example, a ball.
Although it is extremely painful for the victim, it tends to be considerably funny to people who witness it.
Today in the baseball game the pitcher took a nutshot; the baseball hit him in the nuts.

Man, I just watched the funniest nutshot video ever.

Nerd neck 

A "human" that spends so much time playing video games that their posture is level nerd neck. Everytime anyone goes tryhard they hunch down and their neck gets longer there fore a nerd neck is always hunched down cause they're always going try hard. In other words a nerd neck is a try hard, since their neck is 100% longer than the average human being due to playing too many video games and taking them serious, nerd necks are not even considered human anymore but something more sad. Nerd necks are often found on fortnite, their natural habitat usually being tilted towers.
What a fucking nerd neck!

He is building so fast, nerd neck!

Looser more like a nerd neck ha!
