Permanent Bitchy Face (PBF)

A condition where the natural position of the facial muscles gives the appearance of being aggitated, moody, or unapproachable at all times. All basic facial gestures can be confused with a wicked case of constipation including: smiling, frowning, and even exuberance. Unlike Bitchy Resting Face (BRF), PBF can happen in men or women and affects the facial features at all times. The only real cure for PBF is to lighten up and get over yourself.
Wow, I was going to buy that girl at the bar a drink, until she turned around and I saw she had Permanent Bitchy Face (PBF).

Mike used to roll his eyes and sigh during the staff meeting. After being confronted about it, now he just sits there with Permanent Bitchy Face (PBF).

pedantic sexism

When a man critiques/criticizes a small detail of something a woman has said or done and mansplains at her about it, either "correcting" her or shaming her for being "incorrect" somehow. Importantly, the gendered nature of the interaction indicates he would not have made any comment, or would have been less rude about it, if the woman were, in fact, a man. Bonus points if there are examples of other errors, or more egregious ones, by men in the same situation at that moment (i.e. comments on a discussion forum or a group of people talking).
Anne says, "I have only the best vegetables in my basket!" Tom says, "So do I! Look at these ripe tomatoes we both have!" Roger points at Anne and says, "Anne, don't you realize tomatoes are fruits? There are tomatoes in your basket, so you can't say you have only vegetables in your basket, now can you?" Anne says, "Wow, Roger, what a great example of pedantic sexism! I love how you go after me about tomatoes, when I wasn't even the person to mention them!"

Towel permanence

The need or desire to use the same towel each time after showering. This may be a favorite towel with sentimental value, or the beach sized one that covers all your parts. This condition is frequently only suffered by one member of a family, causing much frustration upon finding that someone else has used "your" towel.
Boy: "Mom, where's my green towel?"
Mom: "It's in the wash, hon. I used it to dry off the dog earlier."

Boy: "Damn you, towel permanence. Now I cant shower."
