political correctness

Puritanism - Don't say that Beyonce looks hot, that's committing the sin of lust.

Political correctness - Don't say Beyonce looks hot, that's patriarchal objectification of women.

original-itis

When a person automatically dislikes a new version, sequel, or remake of a movie, TV show, or video game (usually without even trying it) just because it isn't "the original" version that they grew up with. This is especially common with older generations, as well as hardcore fanbases of some series (Star Wars and the hatred for the prequel trilogy being a notable example).
*Drew has a bad case of original-itis. Even though Daniel Craig's performance as James Bond has received excellent praise from critics , he refuses to even watch the new Bond films just because they aren't the old Connery films that he grew up with.

My English teacher's original-itis told the class that Leonardo DiCaprio's Romeo + Juliet movie was a bastardization of Shakespeare's play. She was shocked when I informed her that Shakespeare's play was actually copied from on older Italian poem "Romeus and Juliet".

black knighting

The act of showing a very cynical or chauvinistic attitude about women online to try to look "alpha".

Black knights are often guys who are disillusioned as a result of formerly trying to be white knights just to get women to like them, and are now going in the opposite extreme thinking that women love jerks. Usually however they just come across as posers or internet tough guys.
Example of black knighting:

Guy 1: Last night I brought a bitch home from the club and didn't even buy her a drink, then I kicked her out of the house right after I splooged on her face.

Guy 2: Damn that's so alpha!

PUA

PUA is short for pick-up artistry. A live-action role playing game in which geeky guys role-play being "suave sophisticated players".

The rules of the game involve constantly approaching strange women that one meets at bars, clubs, shopping malls, etc and repeating some canned lingo or "pick up line", usually resulting in rejection. While occasionally it does result in the participant getting laid, this is usually the result of trial and error, or simply spending hours every week trolling bars and nightclubs, and rarely if ever the result of the "game itself".

Contrary to belief though, the object of the game isn't even strictly about "getting laid", but rather proving to other players that one is not afraid of rejection. Which why some guys continue to persist in it even after 100s of rejections instead of just finding a hobby where they can meet women natually.
PUA- I spend the last weekend leveling up my nightgame status, but now my daygame is underleveled. I think I'll hit up the shopping mall and approach a few 7/10s today and practice my negs.

Tumblr

A website which serves basically as a haven for the mentally ill, gender confused, and sexual deviants where they can post any deviant fantasy or delusion that they want without being "judged for it"; yet at the same you will be judged if you dare to point out that any such behavior is dysfunctional. Currently has a list of over 70 nonscientific "gender identities" its members can choose from.

It's essentially Marquis de Sade's 120 Days in Sodom taken to cyberspace.

If you're single, unemployed, housebound, and get off to erotic fanfiction involving a threesome between Pikachu, Barney the Dinosaur and the Hamburglar, or believe you have the sexual identity of a female Greek goddess trapped in a mortal man's body, it's probably you're only social outlet aside from your court-appointed psychiatric visits. If you're anyone else, it basically just serves as entertainment akin to PT Barnum's circus

Possibly the only thing that surpasses it in perversity and sheer horror are the pedophile advocacy sites like NAMBLA.com.
Tumblr user: I'm a transgendered Jewish martian video game character trapped in a man's body. Don't judge me you racist, transphobic, misogynist, sexist scum!

mediahead

A person, usually an American, who gets all their information from mainstream media such as Fox News or CNN, or other corporate-sponsored media. This often leads to a case of Dunning-Krueger effect, since mediaheads view themselves as highly intelligent and informed simply because they think they keep up with current events around the world, but in reality they usually lack any real depth of knowledge, believe that anything they didn't hear on Bill O'Reilly or The Daily Show is false, and are viewed as silly by most of the rest of the world.
A mediahead probably still thinks that George Bush found WMDs in Iraq and that 9/11 only happened because Muslims hate us for our freedom, or that Donald Trump, who's best known as a game show host, is secretly an evil fascist genius who's leading a vast alt-right white supremacist conspiracy to re-instate Jim Crow.
