Banana Republicanization

The transformation of previously diverse, interesting and cool urban areas into packaged and contrived suburban sameness, one cloned pseudo-trendy chic boutique and café at a time.
Listening to Parker and Logan only poured salt in my wounds at how Banana Republicanization has completely ruined San Francisco.
Parker: Let’s Uber to a café on Valencia Street for an organic-pour-over-single-source-fair-market-turmeric-agave coffee.
Logan: Which fauxhemian café? The one at the corner of 11th? 12th? 13th? 14th? 15th? 16th…?
Parker: That new one, Clones. Besides, I need product for my beard and some vinyl from next door at Posers. You know, the place with the tastefully arranged retro dusty junk from dad’s garage.
Logan: Perfect! Isn’t it great, living in the City? I’m so glad we don’t live in a superficial, contrived place like LA.

Parker: I know, let’s wear our matching custard brown jeans, $300 sneakerboots, and black start-up t-shirts.

Ghost Repper

A salesman who gets you to take a meeting to review his product, but when you express interest, you never hear from him again.
I did a web demo with that software guy a month ago and I was really interested in the platform. He said he'd send me a quote but never did. I sent him a couple emails to follow-up, but no response. Ghost Repper!

College Republican

The guys on college campuses who are responsible for the use and distribution of roofies (or Rohypnol) on college campuses and off-campus parties. Although they're always guilty of whatever horrid act they're accused of, they're rarely if ever held responsible, no matter how much evidence is brought against them (because of their daddies).

They are usually dressed like an 8-year-old participating in an Easter egg hunt at a country club and have some sort of run of the mill white name (i.e. Conner, Hunter, Brock, Cameron). Their favorite rapper is Post Malone because he's while and sponsored by Bud Light. Otherwise, they tend to listen to whatever is on the Top 40, refusing to leave out the N-word in singalongs.
"Who would have the caucacity to hold an all-lives-matter tiki torch rally on campus on MLK day?" "It's probably the college republicans celebrating that their Treasurer, Dakota Winthorp, only got a slap on the wrist after he was found responsible for all the roofies at that 'Fuck your holiday, THIS IS CHRISTMAS' party that had 15+ confirmed cases of date-rape"

January Republican

One who, after ignoring every conceivable warning sign, now, suddenly, sees what everyone had been saying all along, feigning surprise at the end result, but only after the world has already watched the shit hit the fan, exactly as predicted.
January Republicans throwing Trump under the bus after supporting him for 4 years, you ain’t fooling anybody.
