Buzzfeed

The absolute worst of the worst clickbait news sites, basically the equivalent to McDonald's. Unlike other news sites, they did not earn their disgraceful reputation for being biased but rather for writing the most obnoxious, ridiculous, brain-dead articles that only attract those who have nothing better to read. Their entire site is psychologically designed to reel you in with a never-ending list of meaningless but mind-numbingly interesting facts and quizzes. The company is probably run by a bunch of greedy capitalist pigs that stop at nothing to get people to click on their articles.

Them: What's wrong with buzzfeed?? Y'all stupid if you think they have some political bias.

Me: Yeah......no. The pertinent problem with buzzfeed is not that they have any sort of media bias, but rather than they produce garbage clickbait articles that offer no value other than to stimulate our brain's dopamine reward system. They will capitalize on any topic if it's profitable, including politics. Basically Buzzfeed is like heroin, and I don't mean that in a good way.

Who Do You Think You Are

It's a rhetorical question you say when somebody is on some other shit and/or acting all cocky

"What you just did is morally unacceptable, I'm going to expose you and hope you learn your lesson."
"Who do you think you are, Judge Judy?? LOL."

Store brand

The superior brand choice for the enlightened masses. These enlightened individuals realize that name brands and store brands are literally one and the same. The only difference is that you're paying more for the label on the can, and only suckers and conformists fall for that. Organic brands, however, trump both store and name brands. Mainly self-actualized people buy organic brands.

In summary:
organic/healthy brands > store brands > name brands

Some dude: *buys name-brand chips*
Me, an enlightened cashier: Hey, you know you can save $2 by buying the store brand alternative, right?

Tiger mom

A mother whose parenting style is both very controlling yet very tender and warm. This is in contrast to pure authoritarian parents, who are controlling but lack warmth. Children with tiger moms often follow a strict regimen and live a highly structured life. Tiger moms want the best for their child but have unrealistically high expectations regarding achievement. Whether it's school or high-status activities such as music or sports, they expect their child to perform the best. No exceptions.

The good thing about having a tiger mom is that your time isn't wasted on meaningless things like reading UD definitions. You may also not realize it, but a highly structured life can be good for you (as opposed to unstructured and chaotic). The bad things include increased stress/anxiety, low self-esteem, and the maladaptive thinking pattern that you have to perform 10/10 on everything. Contrarily, moms who adopt an authoriative (NOT authoritarian) parenting style will teach their child that making mistakes and not doing their best is totally okay, and that there is no need to put down themselves. Authoriative parenting style tends to be more healthy for the child.

Tiger moms are mainly found within the Asian demographic, and therefore also labelled as the "stereotypical Asian mom".

Ty: Oh oof, no worries. Good luck.
