Reuben

A pre-verbal man who communicates primarily in grunts, emojis, and the linguistic fossils of a brain that stopped evolving around age 14. Characterized by juvenile sentence structures ("u go gym hella?") despite being grown, unironic use of “fartmaxxing” and the inability to answer a single “what about you?” while asking dozens of personal questions. Often found lurking in Discord gaming servers, sending friend requests based on pfps, and asking for gym photos within hours of meeting someone. Will blame Instagram, TikTok, or Mark Zuckerberg for his own personality defects. May smugly claim to be “older than you” despite an age gap of less than 12 months. The antonym to reciprocity, self-awareness, basic human decency. Conversational black hole and audacity on legs.

“I thought we were just talking about games, but then he pulled a full Reuben on me, asking where I was from, ignored my hint, dropped ‘fartmaxxing’ out of nowhere, and asked for gym pics. Then blamed Instagram when I called him weird.”

Reubenism

The act of being confidently, loudly, and unapologetically wrong in every possible social interaction. Characterized by ignoring “what about you?”, asking for gym photos within hours of meeting someone, oozing negative charm, saying “fartmaxxing” unironically, and blaming Instagram for one's own personality defects.

"He pulled a Reubenism on me last night — asked where I was from, ignored my hint, then asked for gym pics."
