Moist Signature

Creepier alternative to "Wet Signature," used to designate an ink signature vs. a digital or e-signature.
I gotta go downtown, the bank says it needs a moist signature on my loan application.
Can I email that to you or do you need a moist signature?

Yield Sign

Yield sign build - The epitome of toxic masculinity. The angular, masculine form of a well built man with broad, chiseled shoulders, that oozes testosterone. His tight waist accentuates his powerful physique, radiating raw sex appeal and captivating all who glance in his direction. Ladies young and old gravitate to it. Men far and wide envy it.
Candy: “Do you see that guy over there sporting the total yield sign build? Ugh”

Becky: “Thats my friend Dr. Jonah! Yield sign build? What do you mean?"

Candy: “Yeah you know, the upside down triangle look, the swimmer body shape, the yield sign build! You know it. I mean your boyfriend Andrew has it!”

Becky: “Oh yeah I love that, I think I just got pregnant.”

mixed signals

Refers to da random bu**s**t blinker-operations dat you brainlessly display to hapless fellow motorists after your having partaken of one or more "tall and strong" bartender-blended drinks in Margaritaville.
Sending mixed signals during turns or lane-changes may not actually indicate dat your car is low on blinker-fluid; instead, it may show dat YOU YOURSELF are "over-filled" with some OTHER type of "fluid! :P

Super-signalling

The act of signalling exclusivity or secrecy, even when there’s no substantial reason. It mimics in-group dynamics to create a heightened sense of importance, often leaving outsiders feeling excluded, even when the content is trivial.
Super-signalling can be thought of as a kind of unintentional gaslighting. The term comes from the 1938 play Gas Light, where a man drives his wife to the brink of insanity by gradually dimming the lights in their apartment while pretending that nothing has changed.

Super-signalling operates similarly, although more subtly. There’s really nothing there, yet our very human Fear Of Missing Out is triggered. While gaslighting is deliberate, super-signalling is often unconscious—those engaging in it are likely unaware of the (super) signals they’re transmitting.

The behaviour is rampant on social media. Vague status updates, cryptic tweets, or ‘stories’ that hint at something significant without revealing any details are the digital equivalent of those whispered huddles. They tap into our instinct to belong, leaving us wondering what we’ve missed.

The same is true for airy corporate slides with conspicuous stamps of saying “CONFIDENTIAL,” when it’s apparent that they contain little of substance.

Or scientific presentations where heavy smoke screens of technical jargon obscure the fact that the subject being studied is actually quite inconsequential.

As Gertrude Stein once quipped: “There’s no there there.”
