Beauty Standards

A traditional form of beauty, typically for a certain country. Essentially just the ‘typical’ form of beauty. For example; in Japan, it’s a beauty standard to have larger eyes. Or, how in Mexico, it’s a beauty standard to have lightly tanned skin. Beauty standards vary from country to country, or from person to person, so it isn’t all the same globally.

Jessica: What are beauty standards?
Anne: A typical form of beauty in a country.
Jessica: So may I fit the beauty standard in one country but not another?
Anne: Just because you don’t fit into a certain beauty standard doesn’t mean you’re ugly overall! Different countries have different standards.

Community Standards

Often arbitrary and nonsensical overbearing "rules" created and constantly changed by basement dwellers to take revenge on the world for always getting picked last at sports or the prom. Added to and made more oppressive weekly, or whenever the moderators run out of hot pockets.

Hey, that meme you posted was really Funny! Too bad you violated "Community Standards". 30 day ban.

standard deduction

The traditional Lenten sacrifice of abstinence from non-seafood meat (beef, pork, chicken, lamb, etc.), as opposed to any additional sacrifice like chocolate, beer, video games, or sex.

GF: Are you gonna give up playing Guitar Hero for Lent?
BF: Hells no, I gotta finish it in hard. I'll just take the standard deduction.
GF: Step aside, then. I just need to beat "Knights of Cydonia" in expert to finish the game. Nooch!

Double standards

When somebody tells you not to talk about anybody's business, then they go and tell everybody about a secret being out because they have no self control over their own mouth.

The loudmouth didn't blurt anything out about her own double standards, but was quick to blurt something out about everyone else's that ever met her, so hopefully those new people she was meeting already knew that about her.
