Poetic Justice

After months of knowingly downplaying COVID-19 and misleading the public as well as engaging in conspiracy theories in relation to the virus and continually mocking individuals, corporations and institutions that were trying to take the situation seriously, Donald Trump contracted said virus.

I always said that one of the greatest cases of poetic justice would be if Donald Trump ended up catching COVID after intentionally creating problems and making wildly inaccurate statements in regards to the virus.

Wax poetic

To wax poetic is the act of shitting on the baseboard heater and turning the thermostat up on the day you vacate your apartment.

"Hey bra, ya movin' out today?"
"Yah man, the soup is being a total dick and keeping my deposit, so I'm gonna have to wax poetic."

poetic

the slang definition of 'poetic' is usually a male that wears cardigans, fitted pants and dresses quite nicely. This person is usually also well spoken. It is difficult to tell if someone 'poetic' is gay.

Usually this person comes out of the closet as gay in about a year... But at the time all you can call them is poetic, because it is hard to say if they ARE gay or not.

Not all well dressed, well spoken males are gay, but the ones that are have a certain swagger about them that yells 'not straight' but are they... gay?

men are poetic when their sexual preferences are questionable.

Jessica: Greg's brother is...

Lauren: ...

Jessica: ...

Lauren: Poetic looking.

Jessica: Yeah, look at his button up cardigan.

Lauren: And how he interacts with females.

One Year Later: Greg's Brother is Gay

Poetic Popcore

A genre of music that is often mistaken for emo by ignorant teeny boppers. Poetic popcore can often be classified as anything considered emo on MTV. Poetic popcore bands can often be found by the lyrics that are considered 'emotional' by the people who listen to them, but the lyrics are actually washed-up and laughable.

Lyrics such as:
"So slit my wrist and black my eyes"
and
"I'm not oh-fucking-kay"

are the standard for poetic pop-core lyrics.

"Senses Fail
My Chemical Romance
Fall Out Boy
Hawthorne Heights
Taking Back Sunday
The Used
...are all not emo, they're poetic popcore"
