IITYWIMWYGMAB

IITYWIMWYGMAB: “if I tell you what it means will you get me a beer?”

I posted IITYWIMWYGMAB on the wall at the house party. Everyone was asking what it meant. Friends responded “if I tell you what it means will you get me a beer?” Almost everyone who asked didn’t get it and came back to them with a fresh beer.

Tech Totalitarianism

When giant tech companies purposely skew search results and suppress viewpoints such as news and censor viewpoints which don't meet their objectives.

In a brazen and blatant act of Orwellian tech totalitarianism, firms such as Google, Facebook and Twitter purposely de-list and suppress news and opinions such as early reports of coronavirus in Wuhan and later in the 2020 US election -- in order to support their narrative and corporate objectives, as well as affect outcomes and people's thoughts. While pretending to care and virtue signal, their true objective is to 'memory hole' any counter thinking and control people like sheep so they can have an absolute monopoly and unquestioning supremacy over society.

Lurky Torontonian

A Toronto-specific word, as in when Torontonians stand around idly on their porches, sidewalks, tiny lawns, etc. and eyeball others who may not be like them, and when a non-Torontonian is suspected, squint their beady eyes and scrunch their weasel noses and point and open their mouths to utter an inaudible to humans scream – to alert other lurky Torontonians that someone unlike them is near; similar to the Invasion of the Body Snatchers.

I was passing through Riverdale last week when I noticed several lurky Torontonians staring at me, and when I paused, they all pointed and opened their mouths to utter some kind of weird noise.
