Mary Sue

A term referring to a character in fiction who is unreasonably favored by the author. The character typically faces few conflicts between themselves or non-villain characters, displays a complete lack of seriously crippling flaws and weaknesses, and has their bad actions repeatedly forgiven or regarded as unquestionably good by the story.

That is of course what the term is supposed to mean, but over the years its use has become more and more broad and haphazardly thrown around that it has essentially lost all meaning. Characters who obviously aren't Mary Sues are frequently called them, while characters who clearly fit the description fly under the radar. Mary Sue has become just another meaningless term used as a covert synonym for something you don't like, the same way "unfair" is used for video games or "contrived" is used for movies.

Kid 2: "No she's not. Do you even know what that term means?"

Sile Marie

Sile Marie is the most amazing person you can meet. She is very caring, but be warned, she can kick your ass if necessary. Usually though, she wouldn't. She is a very loyal friend and always there for you. She also likes to be lazy and watch TV!

Bloody Mary

Mary I of England (1516–1558), Queen of England and Ireland, so called because of her execution of numerous protestants.
There is an urban legend that was made about her haunting mirrors ever since she was found dead near a broken mirror with her face smashed in beyond recognition.
Martin: “...And so she haunts every mirror and can only be summoned by saying her name 3 times!”
Luke: “I’m NOT gonna say that 3 times, I’m not stupid.”
Martin: “Come on, it’s just a scary children’s story. What could go wrong?”
Luke: “Fine... Bloody Mary, Bloody Mary... f*** this I’m out!”
