A clever euphemism used to describe the practice of hiding pornography on YouTube by labeling it with texts in foreign languages, circumventing the platform's strict policies against sexually explicit material.
I heard some creators are using foreign language to sneak their adult content onto YouTube without getting flagged—talk about a creative workaround!

Originally standing for "Japanese Domestic Market", JDM is a slang term for "right-hand drive". Here, JDM is a backronym where "J" stands for a city starting from "J" located in right-hand drive countries, i.e. Jakarta and Johor. Meanwhile, "DM" remains standing for "Domestic Market". Henceforth, JDM stands for "Jakarta Domestic Market" or "Johor Domestic Market".
Despite being an Italian car, Alfa Romeo 164 has a right-hand drive version known as "JDM version" where "JDM" stands for "Johor Domestic Market".

Having the same meaning as "glossary", this term refers to a special kind of dictionary containing terms specific to a particular field such as technology, medicine, or moviemaking. This term is derived from the combination between the prefix "sub-" (as in "subreddit", "subpost", "subtopic", "subchapter", "submenu") and "Urban Dictionary".
When researching game development terms, I found the Suburban Dictionary to be a treasure trove of jargon and a glossary of terms in industry-specific language.

Derived from the word "sin", as most movies contain inappropriate contents (vulgarity, profanity, violence, drug use, etc.) This causes the lack of kid-friendly movies to be shown at K-12 school campuses as movies are made to entertain, not to educate. Movies without such inappropriate contents are like coffee without sugar — they're not something literally everyone wants but they do brighten the day of those who akcually desire them.
With so many films filled with inappropriate contents, it's no wonder schools struggle to find age-appropriate cinema movies for K-12 students!

AFK pain refers to the pain caused by feeling missing out the latest YouTube videos whilst you've been unable to watch YouTube for extended periods of time. AFK pain feels even more intense as you go to bed whilst having not watched YouTube during the day, which is as unpleasant as going to bed whilst being hungry. AFK pain is more commonly experienced by persons who have subscribed to lots of YouTube channels in a row (i.e. 600+ channels) compared to those who subscribe to few to no YouTube channels.
After a long day of the abstinence of YouTube due to losing arguments with my parents, I felt that serious AFK pain creeping in as I lay in bed, knowing I had missed out on all the latest uploads.
