Metamodernism

A cultural paradigm created from the outcome of postmodernism and the Vikaas Rule. When deconstruction of any individual concept or symbol occurs, instead of rejecting a concept through irony or nihilism, a new synthesis occurs between the deconstructed points (referred to as poles) by understanding that both aspects of the deconstruction are true at the same time, even if they seemingly contradict.

Following this general practice, the synthesis is created using dialetheism, or rather, the understanding that negations of concepts can be as true as the statement itself. Using this concept, irony and sincerity can be combined into a new artform, creating what some describe as new sincerity. Thus, it's a rejection of modernity and postmodernity, realism and nihilism. Instead, it forges a new path of recontextualization.
Metamodernism is the logical outcome to a philosophy which is based on the deconstruction of principles created from a philosophy that constructed those principles in the first place. My rapidly degenerating sense of humor makes a lot more sense then

Metamorehoes-sis

A phase that a nerdy, innocent, or shy girl will go through in highschool or college where they suddenly become more attractive through puberty, knowing how to apply makeup, learning how to dress, or present themselves better, and subsequently attract the attention of many previously uninterested guys.

Girls who enter metamorehoes-sis tend to fall victim to enjoying the newfound attention, and will play with all of the guys without getting with any of them. The word for this type of girl is called a Tugger.

Metamorehoes-sis girls will oftentimes embrace their shy innocent personality, and while they might not be aware of or intentionally be leading so many guys on, other girls will definitely be gossiping about how they put up an 'innocent front' while wanting the male attention. Whether this is true varies on a case by case basis.
"Yo, Ashley is hot now."
"Yup. She entered Metamorehoes-sis. She asked me to wait for the bus with her lol. No way I'm falling for that."
"Good for you man, apparently Jonathan has been carrying her bags for her recently."

Metafiction

"Fiction which knows that it is just made up".

A story is a kind of lie we like to hear. As readers we throw ourselves into the world of literature and fiction to "escape" from the real world. Literature is a form of escapism. The authors don't declare to us that the story is a lie and so they make the story convincing and enjoyable to read. This is a postmodern tendency known as "metafiction".
Jeanette Winerson's "Sexing the Cherry" is a core example of Metafiction.

"Metafiction? It's a postmodern term that creates a world of fantasy and makes the imagination spiral out of control".
