A play on the words "weeaboo" and "caribou."

An American or other non-Canadian person who is obsessed with Canadian culture, including hockey, lumberjack inspired fashion, and poutine. Cariboos also tend to be fans of the show Degrassi and/or the YouTuber, MattG124. They will gladly move to Canada, assuming they can afford doing so.
Jordan had recently became a cariboo. On the outside, he just looked like any other hipster, but on the inside, his heart pumped maple syrup and he dreamed of one day learning how to ice skate so he could play hockey at the local rink.

Someone who makes vaping their entire life, but is neither a vape god or a vape hipster. They tend to wear snapbacks and clothes that may have their vape company of choice's logo, and often sport undercuts. If they are able to grow facial hair, they tend to have goatees. A vape boy is commonly a hypebeast as well.

Even if they started vaping to quit cigarettes, they are quickly absorbed into the lifestyle and are indistinguishable from people who started vaping as a fashion statement. They are more preoccupied with looking cool than vaping safely, leading to many "hilarious" stories about their vapes catching fire or the time they puked from too much nicotine.
A vape boy sat relaxed on the bench while blowing billowing clouds . Every so often, he'd look around to see if people saw how big they got, but his shades hid that fact. He sincerely hoped someone did.

When a transgender individual uses their gender dysphoria as an excuse to get what they want or to emotionally manipulate another individual. Weaponized dysphoria is commonly used against parents, friends, other transgender people, and romantic interests. Sometimes weaponized dysphoria can come in the form of putting down another transgender person's appearance to make themselves feel better.

Most transgender people do not use weaponized dysphoria, however the ones that do will negatively impact other transgender people and people's view on transgender people as a whole.
A transgender person is using weaponized dysphoria when they accuse a cisgender person of making them feel dysphoric and ugly because he or she does not want to date them.

A transgender boyfriend telling his transgender girlfriend that she has no boobs and has the squarest jaw he's ever seen is an example of weaponized dysphoria because he is purposefully increasing her dysphoria to lessen his own.

When a teen or young adult becomes tired of their scene phase, and begins to conform to what they view as a hippie lifestyle. They listen to a mixture of psychedelic rock, folk, grunge, reggae, and indie bands while gaining an interest in psychedelics like shrooms and LSD. Unlike someone who fully transitions into the hippie lifestyle, there are still remnants of their old scene.

They may start to emulate a stereotypical hippie appearance by dreading their hair, or trimming only their bangs for more of a Beatles style hairdo if their hair is short enough. Unlike hipsters, they generally have longer hair and rarely ever have undercuts. They still have some variation of scene hair, especially with how their hair is layered. If they are able to grow facial hair, they may do so, unlike in scene culture where clean-shaven faces are praised.

They still wear tight jeans, though they are more likely to wear sweaters, shawls, sandals, boots, and drug rugs than their scene counterparts. Hippiecore kids prefer to dress in earth tones or colors that are not neon, though they may still wear black if they're going for more of a witchy look. They have similar styles of piercings as before including snake bites and stretched ears, but are less likely to use acrylic or silicone jewelry and will opt for natural materials.

Eventually, hippiecore kids may fully transition into the hippie lifestyle, revert back into a regular scene kid, or may become something else entirely.
Technically, Panic At The Disco and its fans went through a brief hippiecore phase in 2008 with the release of their album Pretty. Odd. This was only the beginning for some of the fanbase.

Wizard angst can be used for all genders.

The stage in which a generally successful youth begins to act out and withdraw from most of their peers, usually between the ages of 11 through 17. This term only applies if -at least from the outside- the teen's life appears too good for this to happen. This means that wizard angst is especially common in upper middle class children, child actors, or children of celebrities.

It refers to the Harry Potter Puppet Pals video by the same name, in which Harry Potter begins to act out due to raging teenage hormones, and celebrity status as the Boy Who Lived.
Alex suffered from wizard angst the moment he became a teenager, and spent his teen years ranting on Facebook, and picking verbal fights with his peers. Despite this, he was really well off.

A school that primarily focuses on Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math. Usually involves K-12 education, and tends to be a charter school or other form of school not within the public school district. They may be known as "STEM academies."

While some STEM schools may teach only a specific age group of children, many go from Kindergarten to 8th grade, or even Kindergarten to 12th. While the age levels are separated, a student enrolled in the school is guaranteed a spot in the school all the way to the oldest grade available, bypassing the need to re-apply or be stuck in the waiting list during the transition from elementary to middle, and/or middle to high school.

These schools generally have stricter policies regarding behavior than other schools, but may not be as strict as private schools. Students generally wear uniforms involving polo shirts and navy or khaki pants.
Alayna graduated from a K-12 STEM school. She remembered the school colored polo shirts with a mix of nostalgia and relief that she could wear whatever she wanted in college. One thing she knew for certain, however, is that her goofy 11th grade Chemistry teacher inspired her to study Chemistry in college, which was just as difficult as she expected. Nonetheless, she was putting as much effort as she possibly could, and didn't appear to be failing anytime soon.

A teenager or adult that has such a strong baby face that they look like a kid in photographs from the neck up, but they are an average adult height or taller and may have adult body proportions. It is strong enough to cause the uncanny valley, especially if it’s a man with a beard.
Haley Joel Osment and Jojo Siwa are notorious stretched children.
