manspreading
While the rationale behind manspreading is perfectly valid, to single this problem onto men is just plain ridiculous. This has nothing to do with gender, it's simply a matter of public etiquette. If a girl spreads her legs out while the bus is jam packed with people, people would be pretty pissed too.
Do not listen to any feminist suggestions. Instead, every man and human should simply stick to this guide:
1) When the bus/metro capacity is under 25%, spread your legs as you so desire
2) When the bus/metro capacity is 25-75%, generally spreading is fine as people have other seats to choose from
3) When the bus/metro capacity is over 75%, it's best to play it safe and tuck your legs because people will likely want to sit in the adjacent seat

Me: You know what misses me off so much? When people leg spread on the bus. There was this guy who freakin' blocked two seats with his legs on the bus. Like, I ain't gonna complain about that if the bus was half empty, but the bus was full and there was an old lady who wanted to sit down but the guy was too busy on his phone to notice her.
Her: Don't you mean manspreading?
Me: No, I mean leg spreading.

Zoomer
1) Someone who uses the video conference app "Zoom"
2) A portmanteau of "Gen Z" and "boomer". An equivalent derogatory term applied to Gen Z adolescents.

1) Everyone is a zoomer in the COVID pandemic era
2) Look at that zoomer over there filming themselves for tiktok. Disgusting.

Mother nature
Any external unstoppable force so strong and so unpredictable that it cannot be quantified. Humans have grown to think about themselves as masters over their environment, but when face to face with mother nature, we lose. Every. Single. Time.
Only the wise will understand and accept that nothing, not even humans and their scientific prowess, can control mother nature. The fool, on the other hand, deludes themselves into thinking that they are impervious to anything.
Be smart, don't ever underestimate mother nature.

COVID-19 is mother nature's wake up call that the human condition is and always has been fragile. Apparently, some very special individuals did not understand her wake up call and continue to live life accordingly to their rules. We call those very special individuals "anti-maskers".

trap music
The worst EDM genre to have ever existed. It's not even music, it's just a bunch of harsh 808 drum samples accompanied with that annoying AF "tic-tic-tic-tic" semiquaver hi-hat pattern. Even hip hop (old school rap) sounds miles better than this POS genre.
So I was studying at the library and then suddenly this ghetto dude who reeks of weed sits near me with his earphones blasting out obnoxious trap music. Couldn't study from all that cacophony.

Declinism
The stupid ideological lens that most millennials look through nowadays. Most often expressed in the form of pessimistic sentiments such as "XXXX was a horrible year, I hope next year will be better". Ironically they say that for every year regardless, as they'll always find something horrible that happened.
The opposite of declinism is looking at the world through rose-tinted glasses. Both opposites are bad.
The correct view is to fully embrace in the good aspects while still acknowledging the bad.

After Trump became president at the end of 2016, it seems that the broad population of young American adults have slowly started adopting the view of declinism.

meta-cringe
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.

Anyone?
When the OP asks a question or request on a forum and nobody responds, so OP replies to the thread again with "Anyone?" It'd be wishing thinking to think someone would reply back this time, but more often than not the OP's thread will likely be ignored forever.
From the OP's perspective, feelings of resent will likely ensue.
From an outsider's perspective, they will either:
A) Cringe until sad, if the question or request was incredibly stupid or pathetic af
B) Also feel for the OP, if the question or request was reasonable or relatable

OP 1: Hi everyone! So I've been literally searching everywhere but could not find any website where people offer constructive feedback for other people's musical work. But now finally I found this subreddit (r/roastmytrack) and thought you guys would like to critique my new track that I made. I think I did really well on this one! Is there anything I can improve on? Any feedback is appreciated! Thanks!

OP 1, two days later: Anyone?
