the chicken was lovely

A statement to indicate a break during or after a dramatic moment. To mean that "the chicken was lovely" means that the one uttering this statement either wants to leave the scene or take a dig on how appalling or dumb (or awkward) the moment was. This phrase is usually told by a bystander of the situation, but, at various times, an accused individual may also say it.
Example 1.
Bystander: "Well, the chicken was lovely, but I gotta go!" (leaves the scene)

Example 2.
Person A: "Wait, so YOU cheated on my husband?" (points to Person B)
Person B: "Oh! Well...the chicken was lovely, but I have to dip!" (leaves)

Winners love winning

A meme made by @ihatebodhi on TikTok where they misunderstood the abbreviation ‘WLW.’ Has been coined by the sapphic community to joke about happy WLW relationships (sometimes ‘losing’ refers to toxic/failure WLW relationships.)

Love bombing

Love bombing is a manipulative tactic commonly used by predators, abusers, and manipulators (including cult leaders, narcissists, and toxic partners) to gain rapid control over a victim by overwhelming them with excessive affection, attention, flattery, and gifts.
The stages of love bombing can be:
They bypass natural boundaries by making the victim feel like they’re in a fairy tale. Victims feel like they've found a soulmate or someone who finally gets them.
The dopamine rush from all the attention can make someone crave the love bomber’s presence or approval, just like a drug.
Once the victim is hooked, the predator begins to shift behavior: controlling, gaslighting, or isolating them from friends and family.
After the victim is emotionally invested, the love bombing stops abruptly, replaced by criticism, manipulation, or silent treatment. Victims then chase the initial affection, blaming themselves for its disappearance.
Person A:
Hey… can I ask you something kind of weird?

Person B
Of course. What’s up?

Person B:
So, I’ve been seeing this guy for like a week, and he’s already telling me he loves me. He texts constantly, buys me stuff, even said he could see us getting married. Is that… normal?

Person B:
Honestly? That sounds like love bombing.

Person A:
Love bombing?

Person B:
Yeah, it’s when someone overwhelms you with affection and attention early on to hook you in. It feels romantic at first, but it’s actually about control.

Person A:
Oh wow. I thought I was just overthinking it. I mean, it did feel nice at first, but now it’s a bit… too much. Like, if I don’t respond right away, he gets weirdly quiet or passive-aggressive.

Person B:
Classic sign. They make you feel special, then punish you when you don’t feed into it. That intensity isn’t love - it’s manipulation.
