Slang: something you say to express dismay, failure, unattractiveness, surprise or sympathy.
Generally means the same thing as the much later-occurring slang "oof".

Something that I suffer with all the time every day of my life, and it friggin sucks. Basically your nose sinuses are so stuffed to the point that the snot "drips" down to your throat, and it makes you gag. Not really a big deal if it happens infrequently, but chronic post nasal drip is literally hell.
Me: Hey guys how's it g— *gags loudly on snot*
Them: Woah you okay there dude?
Me: Oh dw it's nothing, just my typical post nasal drip.

1) A mode on smartphones and computers that you turn on to block incoming notifications and sounds.
2) A profile status on social platforms like discord which implies that they're busy and won't respond to ur DMs. Don't be fooled though, as ironically most people on discord with a DND status are actually readily available to chat. What's even more ironic is that people with a green circle status are least likely to respond back. You'd think that red means away and green means active, well apparently it's the complete opposite on discord... 🤷 ♀️

1) Emmy turned on do not disturb mode on her Pixel 7 so that she could concreate on studying.
2) Friend 1: Is it only me who notices that discord ppl with do not disturb mode on are more available to chat than those seemingly "online"?
Friend 2: Nah man I notice it too
Friend 3: Same here
Friend 1: Huh. What an interesting phenomenon.

Tf is with all these stupid ass definitions. Cmon y'all let's be real here, bok choy is a vegetable, a type of Chinese cabbage to be precise. When translated from Cantonese, it literally means "white vegetable".
It is not just endemic to China, but to the rest of Southeast Asia. You will find it in many Chinese dishes as well as Korean dishes. And it is in fact quite delicious (light to the palate) and far less odorous compared to ordinary cabbage, brussel sprouts, and even broccoli.
Technically the only right definition here is from IkEe, just minus the lame shit he said afterwards. And Un Jong Kim over there is just trolling real hard.

Sarah: Oh okay
Alice: So what're you having for dinner tonight?
Sarah: Just thinking about whipping up some Caesar salad with roasted brussel sprouts
Alice: Ugh I hate brussel sprouts. Do you actually enjoy eating them though, especially roasted?
Sarah: Eh it's alright
Alice: Girl what you need is bok choy. It's much less bitter-tasting than brussel sprouts and has absolutely no nasty smell to it. It's very light and crispy, perfect for a salad.
Sarah: Boy choy? Never heard of it.
Alice: ... you serious? Man I need to take you to the Chinese supermarket!
Sarah: Hahaha okay, I will definitely buy some when I'm at the supermarket tomorrow.

Something that's very interesting to read about as a Wiki or Buzzfeed article, but incredibly boring to learn/study as a school course.
Ironically, Tim procrastinated for his greek history exam by reading Wiki articles on the Italian Renaissance.

Uwu envy is essentially the same concept as Freud's penis envy, but applied to modern society's fixation with cuteness. Individuals experiencing uwu envy may harbor a sense of inferiority, where they subconsciously (or consciously) covet others who effortlessly exude the cute and innocent aesthetic of 'uwu.' It may initially manifest as a state of being intimidated or even a feeling of resentment towards those who fit the uwu aesthetic, often due to feeling out of the loop or disconnected from popular internet culture and the trends associated with it.
Unlike penis envy though, uwu envy is very easy to overcome. Overcoming one's uwu envy may involve a strong desire to assimilate the physical attributes, mannerisms, or online presence associated with cuteness, and may drive individuals to engage in attention-seeking behavior or adopt an infantile or anime-influenced aesthetic as a means of validation. More often than not, this typically involves changing your profile pic to a cute anime girl and using cute phrases and emojis such as ':3' and 'rawr'. Those with uwu envy are indistinguishable from those who genuinely co-opt uwu culture, the only difference being that, deep down, individuals with uwu envy do it as a sort of psychological compensatory mechanism.
Uwu envy is the troubling reflection of a young generation that prioritizes surface-level appearances over genuine self-acceptance, self-expression and emotional maturity, perpetuating a shallow aesthetics-based culture.

EXAMPLE 1:
Person A: I noticed that Sarah changed her profile picture to a cute anime girl and is always using 'uwu' in her messages. It's like she's trying so hard to be cute all the time.
Person B: Yeah, she's got a serious case of uwu envy.

EXAMPLE 2: Me. I have uwu envy.
