basic bottom line

expression

Meaning:
The simplest, most important truth in any situation — what it all really comes down to before anything else. It’s the raw core, the emotional or logical essence that stands before the usual bottom line, often hidden beneath layers of explanation, justification, or complexity.

Extra:
The basic bottom line comes before the bottom line — it's what everything else is built on.

Origin:
Popularized by Catalin Andrei Rajka, a Romanian creative and thinker known for concise expressions of complex thoughts.
"The basic bottom line? I started this because I needed to feel something again — all the rest came later."

"Before anything got complicated, the basic bottom line was just this: I missed her."

"Forget the strategy, the basic bottom line is — he couldn’t let go."

Born Again Bottom

When a gay man (who has primarily been a top most of their lives) has such a good experience getting fucked that they see a blinding light of inspiration from the heavens above to the point that they feel “born again”. They then pledge the rest of their existence towards being a TOTAL BOTTOM.
Big dick David got his BUSSY worked so good at the park last month that he’s totally lost interest in topping. Another top converted to being a BORN AGAIN BOTTOM.
