boomercode 

Shitty code written by the previous generations of programmers (typically Boomers) that did nothing but produce technical debt for millenials and Gen Z programmers to clean up, thus killing the thrill and joy they expect to find based off of several popular YouTube programmers chronicling their lives at more modern tech companies. Most often you will find this regards developers who were huge advocates of a specific vendor that is notorious for pushing sub-par software packages on the industry for profit (e.g. Microsoft, Oracle, IBM).

Typically stacks filled with boomercode feature a wide set of redundant infrastructure, overengineering, technical debt and obscure proprietary softwares with no real value, such as EDI. The authors of such code typically also mock modern web standards and design practices. All while being unable to give a coherent explanation of their design choices.

50% of the transaction fees paid are likely because of boomercode.
Recruiter: Hey, I've got this awesome job, they're willing to pay relocation fees and triple your salary.
Modern Developer: Sure, what kind of technology are we talking about?
Recruiter: You'll love it, IBM Informix+Oracle, super legacy ASPX, 4gl, a little COBOL. Lots of WCF. 80% of the business logic written in PL/SQL
Modern Developer: So boomercode

church hurt 

church hurt is where you experience a degree of distance, pain, or judgement from your church community. Essentially, you are just unable to “find your place”. This is prevalent in the Christian community, but can be extended to other religions.
Now that I am an adult I am beginning to heal from the church hurt that was inflicted on me as a child.

Huge. Surpassing normal expectations.
I was fishing with a Spinner Bait and a HONKIN pike came after it and hit it . Felt like a lawnmower running over a brick.

Stealthie 

when you're holding up your phone and making faces at it, as though you are taking a selfie, but you're really taking a picture of the person across from you or the wall or anything else that seems interesting but you don't want to be caught dead taking a picture of.

This action is often made more convincing by wiggling the eyebrows or opening the mouth, to pretend you're trying to get a Snapchat filter to work.
FRIEND A: "Did you just take a stealthie of me?"

FRIEND B (turning phone around): "no I was just using snapchat's new filter, see?"
