creative reaction

A moment of unlimited potential, where energy and creativity are released in high yields. (A more descriptive term for "being in the zone", the phrase it replaces.) The conditions necessary for a creative reaction are a well-engineered infrastructure, simplified business procedures, and productivity skills which enable creatives to shut out distractions, make the most of available time, and be energized. When these conditions are met, the spark of creativity is all that is needed for a creative reaction to occur.

I shut my door, turned the ringer off, then quit out of chat & e-mail. I got SO MUCH of my screenplay done. Creative reaction is the only way to describe it!

reactionary

A term used by college socialists and neo-Marxists to describe anyone with political views to the right of Mao. The word has its roots in the Communist model of history, where all of human history is supposedly one long class struggle between the working class and the bourgeois.

Chuck took an Uber on the Uber strike day! And last week, he told me he doesn’t believe in a 90% tax rate for the rich. He’s such a reactionary.

Man, did you see what happened in our house last night, Mike and Lucy caused a bang reaction that got me laid, and my other 3 roommates. Thanks Mike!

fauxver-reaction

An over-reaction that is not genuine or faked.

When Jane was notified that she won the grand-prize of one nickel, she screamed and jumped for joy, but it was just a fauxver-reaction.
