Lebanese Youth Indicator (LYI)

LYI is the Lebanese Youth Indicator. It aims at measuring how healthy the socio-economic situation in Lebanon is based on the access of the competent and independent Lebanese youth to decision making roles. It also considers other factors revolving around the role of the Lebanese youth in reviving the struggling Lebanese economy, reversing the corrupt political scene, and the aching society. The indicator looks into both the resident Lebanese youth and the Diaspora across the world.

The indicator was formulated by Jihad El Hokayem as part of his endeavor Rethinking Lebanon on the back of the crisis in Lebanon that surged in Q1 2020.
Q: How one knows whether the economy of Lebanon recovered?
A: The Lebanese economy recovers when the Lebanese Youth Indicator (LYI) reflects an active and leading role of the Lebanese Youth in the country.

insecurity indicator

a word, phrase, acronym, emoticon, or babble appended to the end of a typed line in chat in order to make the typist feel that he has decreased the severity or conviction of what he typed. often used by an insecure person who wishes to test the waters of what he is saying without appearing serious and committed to it.
Pete: "Robert's a loser, haha."
John: "What? Robert's awesome."
Pete: "Oh, I know, man!"

Pete: "I hate Robert, asdkfjadsf."
John: "Robert's a great guy."
Pete: "Oh yeah, I agree."

Pete: "Robert's gay ;x"
John: "Dude, he's definitely straight."
Pete: "I was just kidding, bro. I know he's straight."

Pete: "Why does Robert act so stupid? lol."
John: "Actually, I think he usually acts pretty intelligently."
Pete: "Oh, my tone was meant to imply that I meant the opposite of what I was saying. Irony, you know? You just didn't catch it."
John: "Right... can you stop trying to use the insecurity indicator on me? It's an obvious indicator that you're insecure."

Tone Indicators

A very useful thing. Some people might find it cringe, but tone indicators are seriously useful for anyone who finds it hard to understand the true meaning or implications in someone's texts, especially someone you don't know well. I would go so far as to say it's an evolution in our way of communicating online. They should really be used more often by people who naturally text in a cold and dry manner.
Scenario ๐˜„๐—ถ๐˜๐—ต๐—ผ๐˜‚๐˜ tone indicators involved:

Person 1: Hey wanna play minecraft together?
Person 2: ok
Person 1: ??
Person 2: what
Person 1: Is that like a genuine ok or a sarcastic one or...
Person 2: I just meant ok
Person 1: Ohh, gotcha. Sorry my brain kinda interpreted it like you thought I was bothering you๐Ÿ˜…

Scenario ๐˜„๐—ถ๐˜๐—ต tone indicators involved:

Person 1: Hey wanna play minecraft together?
Person 2: ok /gen
Person 1:๐Ÿ‘

See how much less problematic the 2nd scenario was?
