Ambiundextrous

For both of one’s hands to be equally useless, the natural opposite of ambidexterity.
I write just as badly with my right hand as with my left, therefore I am ambiundextrous.

A phrase that ought to be on this site so as to preserve it in perpetuity as a culturally and aesthetically significant remark.

As expected, the phrase announces that the speaker intends to both kick bubblegum and chew ass, only to express regret that he is all out of ass to chew. Cue furious bubblegum kicking.
You think you’re the shit, huh, pal? You think you got what it takes? Well let me tell you this: I’m here to kick bubblegum and chew ass…and I’m all outta ass.

Thou

(Verb)

To address someone by the second person pronoun “thou”. Back when this term was first used, it would often have been said in contempt as Thou was seen as an informal and potentially rude form of address. However nowadays, since Thou is considered by many to be more formal and respectful than the ordinary sounding “you”, it can have the exact opposite meaning and be taken as a great honor.
Historical usage: “Do not thou me, peasant, else I shall give thee a taste of this steel blade!”

Modern usage: “Did you just thou me? Oh my goodness…I’m so flattered!”

Baroque Pop

A fusión genre, especially popular in the 1960s, which combines elements of pop and classical music. The style emerged as artists were interested in recapturing the grandeur of the baroque era.

Common characteristics of baroque pop:
1. Heavy use of strings, woodwinds, brass, and other orchestral accompaniment
2. Intricate, layered harmonies

3. Prominence of the harpsichord, a baroque era favorite
4. Lyrics that were often fantasy-like, romantic, and, sometimes intentionally, vague.

Baroque pop is related to sunshine pop and psychedelic pop, all three sharing several characteristics, such as their use of complex harmonies.
Baroque pop is not very popular nowadays, which is a shame, as it is one of my favorite genres .

Streaming Generation

The Streaming Generation has come of age in the era of music and movie streaming on apps such as Spotify and Pandora. This generation will have little to no memory of a time when CDs and DVDs were relevant media in their respective field. The time period covered by this generation is approximately 20005 to the present day, giving them a significant overlap with generation Z. Members of this generation are likely to prioritize efficiency in the way they consume music and video, however there have also been some backlash to this, which have led many of them to re-embrace older forms of these, particularly vinyl records.

Contrast with: ITunes generation, CD generation, Vinyl generation
The Streaming Generation have come to expect maximal efficiency in their music listening and film viewing experiences, at the expense of the personal quality of physical ownership, yet some are discovering ways to balance the old with the new, as evidenced by the resurgence of vinyl records in spite of the ubiquity of streaming services.

Bobulated

A mental state equivalent to average awareness.

Coordinate terms:

Combobulated - being in a state of higher than average awareness

Discombobulated - being in a state of lower than average awareness
Alice was quite combobulated, paying close attention in her classes and getting all A’s. Rick, meanwhile, often found himself discombobulated by his instructor’s lengthy lectures. Meanwhile, Steve followed along fine for the most part, but sometimes needed to ask for help. He was perfectly bobulated.
