Afrotizing
Afrotizing (Noun): The unwritten advertising industry rule that for every white person in a commercial, you need a specific ratio of Black actors with conspicuous natural hair/afros visible in frame. Started creeping up in the 2010s and became the holy gospel of marketing departments by the early 2020s.
The ratio can only go up, and never down.
There's a mathematical formula advertising nerds use:
• C = white people in frame
• A' = Black people in frame
• A" = total afro radius in inches
• 2025 standard: A' × (1+A") ÷ C must be > 25
• Indexed for afro inflation, 2026’s ratio will become 27.5
For example, you have 1 white actor and 2 Black actors with a 5-inch and 2-inch afro respectively. You're sitting at only a 16 afrotizing ratio and some marketing exec is gonna have a panic attack.

"We had to reshoot the whole Burger Clown commercial because we failed the afrotizing test. Apparently, Karen from accounting wearing an afro wig doesn't count."
"The client rejected our ad because our afrotizing ratio was 16 instead of 25. Now we gotta find someone with a bigger fro or digitally remove the white guy."
"I swear every commercial now looks like they ran it through some afrotizing algorithm. It's so formulaic you can spot the math."

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.

Grindset
The grindset is a contemporary ideology of self-exploitation disguised as strength, deeply tied to the aesthetics of the “sigma male” and to new digital forms of patriarchy. It promotes the idea that human worth depends on productivity, economic success, absolute emotional control, and the ability to work endlessly, turning vulnerability, rest, community, and tenderness into signs of weakness. Beneath its rhetoric of discipline and power often lies a profound inability to relate healthily to pain, fragility, and human interdependence.
“That’s the grindset, brother. While weak men sleep and complain, sigma males stay disciplined, work in silence, suppress emotions, and build power while everyone else wastes time chasing comfort.”
