scroll shame

The feeling of regret after having wasted far too much time scrolling aimlessly over social networks instead of spending the time doing something productive.
"I’ve got serious scroll shame today. I just spent 25 minutes scrolling and falling down one clickbait rabbit hole after another. I could have got so much done already but now I’m out of time".

thumb dribble

that
annoying thing
when people
send you
a message
a few words

at a time

…forcing you to wait and wait until their message ends up looking like a wise, ancient scroll inciting needless drama and anticipation to their communication like it’s some sort of top secret briefing.
- Did Jim not text you about tonight?
- Yeah, but it was all in one of his thumb dribbles that went on and on, so I stopped reading it.

coyote’d

kɔɪˈəʊtid

1. To be trapped in a meaningless conversation you're unable to get out of.

Usually, because you’re just too polite to do so.

Often, the other person doesn’t pick up on the fact that you’ve lost interest some time ago despite several clear indicators such as body language, facial expressions and light sarcastic nodding in agreement.

2. To be ranted and unable to escape.

See: taxi drivers, the entitled, your grandparents and others Dunning-Kruger'd up the ass.
Hey man, where did you disappear to?

Oh man, I just got Coyote’d over in the corner by Brendan. When he’s had a few, he really goes on, even when he has no idea what he’s talking about.

sweatshopped

When you purchase an item of clothing or footwear from a retailer that you had always previously trusted to provide a minimum standard of quality but when you get home, a detail - such as a button, a buckle or a zip comes off in your hand before you’ve even had a chance to wear it.
A - Hey, aren’t you going to wear those new boots you got today?
B - Oh man, I’ve been sweatshopped. I’ve tried to do them up and the zip came off in my hand.

alphaing

When a man walks into a space where there are one or more men in a way that announces his alpha maleness in some obviously way. This can be with a slow, shoulder-swinging walk, or just with a tough guy look on his face or with another affected gesture of nonchalance.

It can be as little as shooting you with a look though to 'let you know he's there' and is the alpha male within this particular territory, unless you have any ambitions to prove otherwise
Her ex-boyfriend walked in and started alphaing over by the the bar.

scroll coma

The slightly trance-like state someone falls into after submerging themselves in an extended period of scrolling aimlessly on social networks.
“Hey, snap out of your scroll coma and let’s back to work. Lunch break is over, I need you in the land of the living”.

mouth gout

That slightly sour, uncomfortable feeling in the bottom corners of your mouth after you‘ve gorged on things like salami, olives, red wine and cheeses and your gums aren’t used to being bombarded with so many rich, salty flavours - so it takes a while for the funny tingling in your jaw to go away.
Hey, why are you pulling those funny faces, what’s the matter with you?

Oh man, I hit the canopes in the other room hard when I got here, I was starving. Delicious - but now I’ve got the mouth gout.
