A term steeped in the tradition of cringe-inducing humor, synonymous with painfully punny jokes and facepalm-worthy punchlines. "Guano a Guano" takes its inspiration from a pun on the Spanish phrase literally meaning "bat poop to bat poop," humorously interpreted as "bat to bat." This is a play on the English expression "mano a mano", meaning "hand to hand."

Get the malaprobism mug.The Tutu Effect: n. The phenomenon of misremembering the Mandela Effect, named after Archbishop Desmond Tutu, who many people falsely remember as being Nelson Mandela. This is often caused by confusing the two prominent South African leaders who were active during the anti-apartheid movement.

Additionally, it can also refer to meta-irony, where people recognize that they are having a 'Tutu Effect' moment.

Get the Anal Ring mug.The Sandia Rule is a social and ethical guideline that blends the principles of the Platinum Rule (treat others as they want to be treated) and the Golden Rule (treat others as you would like to be treated). It prioritizes understanding and respecting others' preferences and desires, but shifts back to the Golden Rule when there's a conflict with one's own needs and boundaries. This rule is named after the Sandia alloy, a durable mix of platinum and gold, symbolizing the blend of empathy for others with self-care.
The term "Sandia Rule" is inspired by the Sandia alloy, a blend of 90% platinum and 10% gold, known for its exceptional durability and resistance to wear. Just as the alloy represents a strong combination of two valuable elements, the Sandia Rule symbolizes a balanced approach to interpersonal relationships, combining empathy and adaptability with personal well-being and self-respect.
