Language LARPing

When somebody on the internet writes in a langauge (mainly non-Latin) that they absolutely know nothing about. It is either garbled nonsense or something understandable translated via Google translate, but mostly the former.

Unabomber

Contrary to popular belief, the Unabomber was more of a domestic terrorist rather than a psychopath. As with all terrorists, his motive to kill was purely ideological. He was severely critical towards technological advancement and how—in a way—technology would corrupt society. It might've seemed like an absurd and irrational critique 30, 20 or even 10 years ago, but now in 2021 where nomophobia is a real thing, the Unabomber's critique isn't that far off (just minus the terrorizing part).

If the Unabomber didn't choose the unnecessarily violent path, he would've made a great point. Many theorists have talked about the paradox of technology, where technology has freed us, but yet at the same time has enslaved us.

It is recommended to read Neil Postman's "Technopoly: the surrender of culture to technology" to understand more about this paradox.
The Unabomber was an unhinged thinker whose ideas were woke, but whose actions were flawed.

Minecraft PE

What "Minecraft: Bedrock Edition" used to be called for mobile devices. The PE stands for Pocket Edition, which honestly sounds like a much more applicable name than Bedrock. Thus, I will keep referring it to Pocket Edition.

Back then, Pocket Edition was basically a Lite version of Minecraft meant for on-the-go experiences. It was more for killing time (e.g. waiting for bus) than for actually getting invested in the game. Today however, the transition from PE to Bedrock Edition has basically turned the mobile game into full-fledged Minecraft (with some limitations of course).

Ageist

When somebody uses age to judge, discriminate or stereotype against another when in fact age is completely irrelevant.
User 69: *says something immature/inappropriate in twitch chat*
Moderator: User 69, how old are you?
User 69: 22, why?
Moderator: That's funny, I'm 17 and even I know better not to say something like that. Please be more mature next time.
User 69: Wait wait, so you're saying that if I were 17 and you were 22, you'd be fine with it? That's hella ageist my dude.

Index-Pinky Scratch

The index-pinky scratch is a ball scratching technique that involves only using your index and pinky finger to scratch your ballsack. Using the hand that you pee with, you fold the middle & ring finger downwards, leaving only the index, pinky and thumb sticking out. Then you reach for the bottom of your ballsack and start dragging your index and pinky upwards, slowly and intensely. This method targets the itchy area much more effectively with needle-like precision. Note that this only works best with moderate-long nails.
I used the index-pinky scratch technique to soothe my itchy balls and have never felt better.

Tier 4 sub

Does not exist.
Random_user_A: hey man you're making some great content, I'd love to go above and beyond and sub to you at tier 4, but don't have enough money yet :(
Random_user_B: Tier 4 sub? The highest is tier 3
Random_user_A: yeah thats what I meant
Random_user_B: I mean it's up to you if you're feeling it, just note that tier 3 has little to no perks
...
Streamer: *reads chat* "Oh thank you Random_user_A! But you really don't have to if you can't"

Google Chrome

The most popular web browser of this decade. It has quickly become the default browser for every person and organization, for a good reason.

Chrome was famous for being a fast and lightweight browser, and tbh it still is. It only uses so much RAM cus people nowadays have like 50 extensions installed and 500 tabs open. Now it'd be a fat lie to say Chrome isn't hogging my RAM but people gotta consider the actual reasons behind it.

Also, Firefox is NOT better if we're strictly talking about RAM usage. In fact it eats up more RAM even in 2022. This is a fact, go look it up.

And as to the recent definitions: not everyone cares that much about privacy ya know. I genuinely don't care what Google does with my data, but if you do, then go use another Chromium-based browser like Brave, which has privacy features. It's practically Chrome but de-Googlefied. Also uses WAY less RAM.

Other than that, the differences are up to each person's tastes and needs. I find Chrome's UI to be far more modern, but to each their own. The amount of Firefox elitism here is hilarious.
Somebody: Ahhh yes, nothing beats that feeling of setting Google Chrome as your default browser 👌
Firefox Zealot: Ewwwww you mean that stinky piece of spyware???
Somebody: Chill out bro, it's just a browser bro.
