Pating

Pating is short for a pathetic person. The term was first used in the suburbs of Oslo and is now a widely used term. It's not quite as offensive as actually telling someone that they're a pathetic person, and is commonly used among friends when they do something stupid or short-minded. Pating may be shortened with a simple "P".

Example one:
To friends are walking down the street when suddenly one of them trips in his own laces.
Friend 1: Haha, you're such a pating!
Friend 2: Gaaaah, I know... I'm nothing more than a P...

Example 2:
You're walking down the street and suddenly see a dude with his pants stuffed in his tennis socks.

"Wow, that's a pating"

A previous endeavor starting to bring good results.

Have fun paying fees

Phrase used by Nano community to warn against coins with fees, a.k.a. 'shitcoins' as a poor investment. Especially those which will have $40 fees after two more reward halvings or at only 6tps usage in a world of 7.8b people.

Are you seriously buying BTC? Have fun paying fees!
