groub
Originally a misspelling for "group" found on Internet memes, "groub" refers to WhatsApp groups — unlike "group" which has much broader meaning.
After joining the new WhatsApp groub for our project, I realized I was in for a wild ride with all the memes and random discussions!

fun nugget
"Fun nugget" is a metaphorical term for something that is easy to digest, whether it is a piece of information or truth, or some kind of delicious finger food.
One fun nugget to chew on - kids are extremely receptive to psychology, and can be turned away from the things that we believe are ruining their minds, if we take the time to employ tactics that are not as deceptive as they may seem.

fire
A slang term that combines the concepts of "combustion or burning, in which substances combine chemically with oxygen from the air and typically give out bright light, heat, and smoke" and "to unhire an employee" (to dismiss someone from their job). Used to describe both intense criticism and the act of terminating someone's employment.
After that disastrous presentation, the boss decided to fire him, and the team spent the rest of the day roasting him in the group chat.

Tony
A turtle character from the "SpongeBob SquarePants" universe, revealed in 2020 to be the long-sleeping inhabitant of Patrick’s rock house. This plot twist highlights the unexpected backstory of Patrick's home, as the series began during Tony's 30-year slumber, starting on May 1, 1999.
Did you hear about Tony? He’s the turtle who was actually living in Patrick’s rock the whole time! I can't believe they kept that twist under wraps for so long!

childhood AFK moments
Unavoidable compared to AFK moments after reaching adulthood, childhood AFK moments are cause by at least one of the following causes: a) The screen time limits imposed by parents, b) Going to K-12 school campuses with strict restrictions on smartphone usage like requiring students to collect smartphones during school hours, which in itself already causes daily AFK moments, c) Raised by the family who cannot afford screen devices like smartphone, and d) Growing up in rural areas with poor Internet signal reception.
Growing up in a rural area meant I had plenty of childhood AFK moments—between school rules and no internet, I was often offline and didn't even mind!
