Just a fun way of saying idiot that sounds like idy-yoda. Also, perhaps denoting an iota of idiocy, an idiot who is very small due to their idiotic actions, or just an idiot who is tiny/petite.
Lucy: 50 times 2 is?
Rachel: 200
Lucy: No, you idiota. Haven't you been paying attention in class? Just take off the zero, multiply 5 by 2, and add the zero back: 100

Get the Idiota mug.Pete: Inferiorites! Mediocrites! Idioites!
Jared: Calm down Pete! What is going on!?!
Pete: Cumcast is back at it again. I call them up to tell 'em my new 1Gbps Internet is hosed. They tell me: "Sir! It's running at 100Mbps. That's fast enough don't you think?!"
Jared: So you're basically getting only 1/10th of the Internet speed for what you pay them.
Pete: Exactly! If it weren't for sports channels, I would have canned the motherfuckers long time ago.
Jared: You can get those channels by becoming a cordcutter
Pete: Great idea Jared! You just saved my life! Let's go get smashed while watching the football game!

Get the Idioite mug.A squeakfest is pretty much any social media website where all people squeak constantly non-stop about unimportant stuff while getting too emo about it.
Big obvious squeakfests are Twitter, Reddit, and Facebook to name a few.

Tom: Twitter claims to be a diverse all-inclusive website, but everyone on it is an emo squeaker. I don't get what's diverse about that when everyone on it is just squeaking non-stop. Point to me one Twitter account of someone who is not a squeaker!
David: I cannot! I'd have to go on Twitter squeaking to do so. I'm not a squeaker either, so no dice! Twitter is definitely a squeakfest!

Laura: *clickety-clack* The Word and the Void.

Oliver: People bought his line about the market bubble. Idiots Unite!
Jared: Well, if it isn't the smart and talented Charlotte?!?!
Charlotte: What's up Jared?!
Jared: I saw a whole bunch of people following you after class yesterday. What happened!?
Charlotte: I told the instructor I missed the exam because I found out I was pregnant. People kept bugging me afterwards about who the father was. Idiots Unite! Hello!!! It's my new husband Baldwin, who else might it be!?!!
Sophia: Skiing in the summer?! Who does that!!!?
Scarlett: Apparently, Lisa and company. They haven't had enough skiing in the winter it seems.
Sophia: Oh wow! Didn't they go every weekend!!? I mean, I go three times a year and that's more than enough. In the summer, it's beach time baby!
Scarlett: I'm with you, summer means sunbathing on the beach every single day! Let's just leave it at Idiots Unite! Lisa and her friends seem to really dig summer skiing instead. Their loss.

Get the Idiots Unite mug.Dave: So, what do you think of React?
Tim: BIFI
Dave: OK, Golang?
Tim: BIFI
Dave: What about Node?
Tim: BIFI
Dave: Wow! Are there any technologies that are not BIFI by the estimation of software architects?!!
Tim: All technologies that fit a pro & con trade-off analysis! Unfortunately, none of the technologies you mentioned make the cut if a software architect were to put two and two together. Many wannabes these days don't even think about why they are applying a technology. They just monkey see monkey do!
Matthew: Tim, the software architect, told me that React is BIFI, but I don’t understand why?!!
Joe: React assumes a dumb audience to start, among many other reasons.
Matthew: Are you suggesting they assume I am dumb if I were to use React?
Joe: Exactly! For example, bidirectional (two-way) data-binding has been a staple in desktop application GUI development for decades, but React refuses to support it because they say most developers are too dumb to reason about it successfully.
Matthew: What’s wrong with that!? They’re making things more easy for us, no!?
Joe: I doubt any beginner would call React’s style of code easy, so I’m not sure they are anywhere near the target they claimed they were aiming at if that’s what you’re asking.
Matthew: Are you suggesting the makers of React themselves are dumb too?!!
Joe: Now, you’re truly getting to the bottom of why Tim used the term BIFI about them. React is literally By Idiots For Idiots!
