Omnicause 

A sarcastic term for the belief system of leftists who are unable to pick battles they can win, and who get sulky and bitter when they can’t get support from outside their circles. Turn-ons: Revolution, guillotines, ratfucking liberals. Turnoffs: Allies, pragmatism, anything less than complete victory (but only on their terms).
No, you’re missing the point. I support what you support, but I’m not voting for you because you tie everything into the Omnicause, and you will never get anything done like that.

Doreknob 

A fan of pseudoleftist podcaster and “comedian” Jimmy Dore. Usually totally insufferable. Claims to be leftist, but supports Trump and Putin. Probably a tankie. Most likely the burned out husk of a BernieBro.
Doreknobs love saying “I didn’t leave the left; the left left me.” It’s true; the left doesn’t generally have room for delusional fascist simps.

Doreknob 

A person, usually a self-proclaimed leftist, who is a fan of pseudoleftist podcaster and “comedianJimmy Dore. Usually the burned-out husk of a BernieBro; likely to be fond of saying “I didn’t leave the Left, the Left left me”.
He used to be a BernieBro; now he can't stand Bernie so he became a Doreknob. I wonder if anyone's remind him that a leftist should never be a Trump supporter.

vein opener 

A song, story, or other work of art so abjectly depressing that it makes you want to hide all the sharp objects.
I don't know what I was thinking when I decided to put Paula Cole's classic 90s vein opener "Where Have All The Cowboys Gone?" on a mix for listening to in the car. Totally inappropriate.

date night heels 

What you call fuck-me shoes when your grandmother is listening.
So I'm going to the store for a pair of what I called "date night heels", and my grandmother said "You mean fuck-me pumps?" My grandmother is awesome.

whackabiscuit 

Premade, refrigerated biscuit dough in a cardboard can. So called because if you unwrap the can, you sometimes have to whack the side of it on the counter for it to open. Pricewise, at ~$2 for a 4-pack, they're the bread equivalent of instant ramen.
You aren't seriously thinking you're going to impress her with Prego and whackabiscuits, are you? Would you at least make one thing that doesn't come out of a can?
