compliment survivor

Kind of person who overreacts an everyday compliment like "you look amazing", says it's inconvenient and inappropriate and/or goes full Karen about it until the other person regrets being born / having said a word.

Oh no, he said "beautiful"? How dare he!... Honey, stay strong. You're still here. You're a compliment survivor.

Selling the wheels for fuel

When you solve a problem in a way that causes a similar or even worse one somewhere else

If you save the relationship by sacrificing your own happiness, you're selling the wheels for fuel.

dtj

Do The Job; the moment when you have to put in the effort, or the act of finally doing something useful when everyone else is slacking. Can be a person, a work phase, a part of source code or a motivational hashtag.

"Okay guys, DTJ time."
"He's the DTJ expert on the team."
"Look if you wanna lose weight, time for some dtj mindset"
