Gamer’s Paradox 

The belief that everyone on your team (in any game) sucks but you. Most gamers believe this. The paradox comes in when 2 players on the same team have this belief. Both cannot be true at the same time. Hence the paradox. Very prevalent in games with toxic communities.
Gamer 1: Dude my whole team sucks but me.

Gamer 2: Yo me too. Wait we’re on the same team…

Gamer 3: It’s the gamer’s paradox.

Netflix Cheating 

This act of betrayal is when someone, be it a friend or significant other, watches a show without the other person they were regularly watching the show with. Unbeknownst to said other person.

This act can put a real damper on a relationship or friendship. Like in an average relationship, ask your partner or friend if it’s ok for you to go on ahead BEFORE you make that mistake.

This term does not only pertain to Netflix, but to any TV show on any viewing platform.
I walked in on Chad Netflix cheating on me! We were supposed to be watching Game of Thrones together and now he’s a whole season ahead!

Female gardener: I like to grow lettuce

Guy: You probably didn't know this but lettuce and cabbage are actually 2 different things

Female gardener: Why would you mansplain this to me, a gardener.
