Mary Mary Quite The Contrarian's definitions
The act of cringing at somebody who is deliberately aware of what makes you and most people cringe. They themselves may even cringe at it. Yet, that certain somebody continues to write an entire essay about it.
Journalist: Now before you start to cringe at the mere word 'tik tok', we did a meta-analysis of all tik toks published after covid-19 and found that a large portion of tik toks are actually more educational than the standard high school curriculum.
Me: Ugh, meta-cringe.
Me: Ugh, meta-cringe.

Get the Peacekeeping mug.An English word that for some damn reason sounds incorrect to our brain, is not listed as a word, gets spellchecked, but yet is perfectly correct grammar-wise.
Why it's not an officially recognized word (while its plural form is) is beyond me.
For example, in the sentence "the Church themself stated that...", the Church is a single entity and therefore can be used in its singular form.

Get the Themself mug.An aphorism intended to be used by any intellectual to tell someone to get to know their subject better before spreading outright BS.
Unfortunately, the phrase has more often than not been abused by internet trolls, zealots and narcissists as a hilariously hypocritical thought-terminating cliché. If used by trolls, they will go even further and link the same exact sources that you would have used against them, thereby deliberately angering you even more.
This phrase can also be used satirically, facetiously or sarcastically. In this case that is totally fine.

Get the Do your research mug.A great VR headset with the most uncool name. Sounds like the name of some random educational software. Compare that to a modern badass name like Oculus Rift or Oculus Go. The words themselves are very ambiguous. Like am I on a meta quest or something?? Lol.
Me when I think of Oculus Rift: *cool, epic gamer vibes ensues*
Me when I think of Meta Quest: *cricket, cricket....* oh wait, I think I'm feeling something.... *educational software vibes ensues*
