Daveism

A long drawn out sentence that says nothing, ultimately. Pretty much just talking bollocks when you're not clear on what you're saying, but trying to make it sound like you do.
"... has tremendous strength in depth."
"In comparison blah blah blah." Without comparing it to anything at all.
Another Daveism is to finishing a list that was never started. OR change tense mid-sentence.
Using more subclauses than Santa's football team.

Diversity Shield

When something is bad, but critiquing said thing isn't possible due to the diverse actions or portrayals that occur within.
A: I was bingeing shows on Netflix during Corona and I watched a really bad one called Another Life.
B: What's so bad about it?
A: Pretty much everything. To make sure it wasn't me I went to watch some reviews and noticed that any of them that didn't like the show will get people talking about how diverse the cast is or that there's a female lead.
B: But the shows still shit?
A: Oh yeah, but you can't say shit since the makers used their Diversity Shield to divert any genuine critical debate.

Multi Diverse Personality MDP

Multi Diverse Personality unlike schizophrenia is the result of multitasking requirements in the present day age whereby one must have the ability to switch personalities based on the requirement to adapt to a particular environment.
John has such a multi diverse personality MDP in such that he can actually be an accountant one minute, then a sales person the next, but even more so he can type and text message on his phone at the same time. His girlfriend Jane can social network, analyze people, and text message also at the same time, making her a MDP also. Hence, their relationship is made in heaven. Adaptability is so important, they have mastered it as MDP's.

Diversity

difference between cultures. Although I am a liberal i do agree it has been taken to an extreme. People don't understand that other people's cultures do not need to be forced upon others. All that is needed is simple recognition. Everyone should be allowed to do their thing whether it is christmas, kwanza, or whatever. The difference is they should not have to abolish their own culture to avoid hurting other groups feelings. Wehn you played with your barbies on the playground, if another kid didn't like your barbie, that didn't mean you had to throw it away did you? No! the other kid just didn't play with it
