Picking Lemons

When a character is doing something dumb in a horror movie that will probably result in their death. Not necessarily always ending in the characters death, though the danger of the situation is obvious to those watching.
"Did you hear Maria was exploring that abandoned house the other day?"
"The one that was owned by the serial killer?
"Yeah, she's totally Picking Lemons"

Pick me

A “Pick me” individual is an individual who belongs to a marginalized group within a society who seeks approval from the dominant hegemonic group by repeatedly reiterating the validity of negative biases held by the dominant hegemony against the “Pick me’s” own group.

The desperation for the approval can lay in the Pick me’s poor self confidence, seen as a way highlight theirselves without highlighting oneself, and an avenue for political or financial gain
Candace was unable to find a long term boyfriend until she became a Pick me and began to appealing towards misogynistic men by agreeing with their misogyny.

If you are going to Tommy-pick a bastard, you might as well live, and die, like Al Capone, John Dillinger or Baby Face Nelson.

Pick me

Usage:
Shaming:
Any loving a man female being shamed by the seething flock of arrogant/snobbish control freak women - she doesn't place above him. (her commitment to the daily choice to love = loyally serving/submitting/tolerating/etc being useful to him - to add to his life, not harm it; not having others on the same level or above him in any way)
Anyone on any level sub to man or not hating men - supportive and pleasing to be with, instead of: impudent, greedy, demanding, egotistical, hedonistic, hubristic, transactional, harmful.. - overall repulsive, expecting simping/slaving for them.
Pecking at her like chickens; because - themselves don't really love men if not despise, but want to manipulatively impose control upon them (it's all the projections they say about men, but in reverse, being a twisted, incapable of empathy, parody on masculine herself), placing their flock of women above the man.
From either leftover women or insecure women with (naturally too empathetically biased for fem) men they've 'trained' to be an expendable utility. Destructive to any other relationship, that doesn't give them attention or follow imposed template - normalizing hers, they'd probably call you that.
Popularized on tiktok - a mental institution catalog / personal diary of deranged women.

Hypocrisy call-out:
Virtue signaling female, that fakes to love a man for attention or other gain - similar to thot/tradthot. Like looking for soft life pseudo-trad bimbo-for-hire gold diggers.
- You're such a sycophant pick me girl.
- At least I don't hate men.
