Example: Now.

A band that is simultaneously over- and underrated. While their albums since 2011 have been mediocre and sold way too much, their early material (1998-2008) is unfairly hated upon, bringing us some brilliant, melodic and heartfelt alt-rock. Though some of this work is overrated (namely "Fix You"), it is just jam-packed with incredible songs. Below are a list of some underrated gems.

"Sparks", "High Speed" and just about anything that isn't "Yellow" from Parachutes (2000).
"Politik" and "Amsterdam" from A Rush of Blood to the Head (2002).
"X&Y" and "Twisted Logic" from X & Y (2005).
"Cemeteries of London," "Lovers in Japan" and "Violet Hill" from Viva la Vida (2008) - their best album.
"Another's Arms" from Ghost Stories (2014).
"For You," "Crests of Waves", "One I Love," "Life in Technicolor ii," "All Your Friends" and "All I Can Think About is You" from their EPs

Something we all need a serious break from.

The reduction in the meaningfulness and relevance of individual controversies as they are swallowed in a sea of other concurrent controversies and outrage. Comparable to economic inflation.

A symptom of the Internet age and the neverending cycle of overreaction, bitterness and hostility. It is not necessarily entirely a reflection of the proliferation of controversy over minor events, given that the news is also filled with many shocking events of great magnitude. The fact that it is easy to forget what mind-numbingly stupid thing Donald Trump said two weeks ago is also a symptom of outrage inflation.

A forum where disenchanted, mostly mentally ill teens are inducted into a wildly un-idealistic, nihilistic and misanthropic form of the hard Right, which mainly exists to sow discord.

The main unifying feature of its users seems to be a hatred and intolerance of the Left, rather than any meaningful or constructive ideology, meaning that therefore adherents must simply disagree with the Left and not much more (beside generally behave abhorrently).

We can thank the site for such wonderful terms as "normies" and "cucks," which serve to unhelpfully label progressives, and for normalising the ultra-Right.

A word we’ve somehow allowed to become an acceptable synonym for “woman”/“girl.” Also spelled “ho.”

Also, a prostitute or promiscuous woman.
