akuwardmoments's definitions
An experience that has caused mild to severe phantom stress on a person. In an attempt to make such events easier to talk about, these cases can be referred to as bruh moments, major Ls, or big oofs. Traumatic events often result in flashbacks due to certain words, images, sounds, or actions, known as triggers.
Me: yeah, so I got jumped that one time, and I've been afraid to go anywhere alone. So that was a major L
My therapist: well, you see, we don't refer to these moments as major Ls. We call these experiences traumatic events.

Get the curry festmug. A sudden burst of abilities that happen after a bad breakup. A common example is the concept of "Optimus Fine". Breakup powers often manifest in the form of extreme motivation, dedication, and improvement in physical attributes, performance in work/school related skills, or in personal projects.
These improvements are fueled from a genuine desire to improve oneself, or on the other extreme, pure spite for the ex-partner in an effort to show them what they've lost. The effects may last from a few weeks to a couple of years, depending directly on how hard the breakup was.

If you have gone through a breakup, and feel an overwhelming urge to improve yourself in every way and get things done, you might be developing breakup powers. You will feel the urge to get good in every aspect of your life, be the absolute best you can be, and maybe show your ex what they're missing out on. Keep the motivation going, just don't hurt yourself, and take care of yourself!

Get the Breakup Powersmug. A dead meme that returns to relevancy by some means, often via 4chan or reddit.

OP: The pooh bear man of culture meme is just a repackaged expanding intellect meme. They're basically the same.

Get the zombie mememug. A style of wushu involving the manipulation of a gun, which is a bamboo staff about one arm's length taller than the user. The style involves manipulating the staff in broad motions, meaning it requires a large amount of space, keen spatial awareness, and an even greater control over the weapon, as opposed to a sword.
While anyone can approach this style, it is ideal for someone who is tall and with a lean build. Power and flexibility are integral to this style.
When doing gunshu in competition, low stances, high jumps, sharp timing, and clearly defined moves get the best scores.

Get the gunshumug. A condition whose full form is Temporarily Embarrassed Millionaire Syndrome.
The diagnosis was first made by John Steinbeck when he said, "Socialism never took root in America because the poor see themselves not as an exploited proletariat but as temporarily embarrassed millionaires."
Symptoms include, but are not limited to, simping for million and billion dollar companies without any incentive, believing in the ability to pick oneself up by the bootstraps in spite of repeated failures to do so, writing off poor and homeless people as lazy regardless of context, believing in the Just World Phenomenon, and believing in pure meritocracy.
Current treatment plans are based around in-depth study of sociology, history, and economics.
