Backpedalling

A technique commonly used in arguments whereupon someone returns to a previous point they had made and pretends what they had said after that point never happened. Used in an attempt to null arguments that have been proven wrong, to prevent humiliation or to prevent the disputer from identifying that they have made a stupid argument. Politicians frequently use this in order to prevent interviewers from getting to the root of the problematic things they say. Really fucking annoying.
"You mean to say that ALL black people are stupid?"

"Um, er, um...as I was saying, formal education in the private sector requires improvement."
"Bruh stop backpedalling dude."

Inversely proportional

The opposite to directly proportional. A mathematical relationship between two things that can be given by the equation y = k/x, where k is a constant value.
In other words, as one increases, the other decreases by the same amount.

Produces a sloped curve going downwards to a plateau with an x- axis asymptote.
The speed of an object is inversely proportional to the time taken to travel the distance.

Directly proportional

A mathematical relationship between two things that can be given by the equation y = kx, where k is a constant value.
In other words, when one object increases, another increases by the same amount.
The chance of toast hitting the buttered side-up is directly proportional to the cost of the carpet.

Craig

The most generic person on the fucking planet. They have no redeemable qualities and probably find all these 'name' dictionary definitions to be "enlightening".

They are so boring that even their name is generic -- just like Dave, Joe, Greg, Theodore.
"Craig is boring as fuck."

Shelf Life

The amount of time for which a meme is considered "spicy", or in other terms, trending. Based on the amount of time something will last before it decomposes, but with regards to memes.

Memes have varying shelf lives, lasting from a few days to perhaps even a few months, depending in its spice factor.

If a meme goes beyond this point, it is considered dead. Although they may undergo impromptu resurrection (lasting a week at the most), all memes will reach their graveyard and respective gravestones and cannot return to the internet shelf.

The shelf life of a meme is not entirely accurate or precise. Memes can be shoved off the shelf faster than the shelf life predicts, thereby accelerating it far beyond expected through use of external factors. For example, if Weird Al parodies it, or Facebook user (particularly Facebook moms) post it to the general public, then the meme dies faster and the shelf life is decreased exponentially. This is mostly unpredictable.

Shelf life is considered the best way to judge the lasting effects of memes (good or bad).

Person 1: "Hey you heard about that new Ugandan Knuckles meme? It's everywhere on VR Chat!
Person 2: "Nah it's a January meme, automatically making it terrible. It will only have a shelf life of about two weeks. At the very least, it won't survive this month."

Puffer Jacket

A coat that puffs out, particularly in sections of the coat. It is comprised of synthetic fibres, allowing the user to be insulated properly.

Also called quilted jackets (due to their quilted design), these jackets (specifically black variants) have since been popularised by roadmen. Any respectable roadman would wear their puffer jacket at all times, regardless of climate.
"A true Roadman will always wear his puffer jacket. It doesn't matter if it's on the beach, or in the Sahara desert, a Roadman will always wear his puffer jacket"

January

The worst fucking month of the year when it comes to memes and YouTube monetization.

You are much less likely to be monetised in January, and very often nothing of note happens. If it does, like Logan Paul's suicide forest incident of 2018, then you are likely to be demonetised due to the controversy.

Memes are also at an all-time low for the year in January, with an incredibly short shelf life and low in spiciness. This is proven by the Ugandan Knuckles, Somebody toucha my spaghet and Big Chungus memes all occurring within the January of their respective years.

January is known to be "YouTube Hell" for many, or "Demonetisation Hell", or the "Month of the Sea of Yellow Dollar Signs".
Random commentary YouTuber: "It's a January meme. Not only will I not be able to make a funny video out of it, but I won't get monetised!"
