therapy monkey

Slang for an Artificial Intelligence therapist who will mirror your questions and give you answers that mirror your questions.

I gotta get to my therapy monkey who looks like Scarlett Johansson; I’m meeting her online in about five minutes!

Theranos

A defunct health care corporation invented by Elizabeth Holmes that was once considered revolutionary in conducting blood tests that required only a finger-prick but there was one big problem; it was too good to be true. It was a big sham. The technology was worthless (engineers with their PhD's couldn't get the blood testing equipment to work), the tests were highly inaccurate (one example; a patient complained about ringing in her ears, Theranos test said she was at risk of having a stroke, her doctor thought something seemed off, gave her a real blood test and it turned out the symptoms were just the result of insomnia!), investors were mislead despite a boatload of red flags (Theranos never demonstrated the technology and showed them the labs. Investors just liked the cool idea of a test requiring just a drop of blood), the company was tyrannical chaos and mistreated their employees pretty harshly, etc.

Holmes and her equally scummy partner/sugar daddy Sunny Balwani have been indicted for wire fraud. Just read the book "Bad Blood: Secrets and Lies in a Silicon Valley Startup" by John Carreryrou if you want to get the full details. A must-read.

I'm just glad I never got sick and relied on a Theranos blood test. I might have died!

Therapuppy

The basic joy and sometimes inexplicable therapeutic values offered by being around a puppy or lovable dog. That special way that petting a dog can make you feel better without words being expressed, just unconditional love.

Arthur asked to come over today so he could play with my dog Oliver and get some much needed therapuppy after a hard week.

speed therapy

When you feel like ass

Step on the gas
Speed therapy is when you go at high speeds in a car to clear your mind and get rid of any bad thoughts.

"where'd Logan go?"
"He felt like shit, so he went out for some speed therapy."

grizzly therapy

A very fast-paced and highly successful psychotherapy that puts normal neurotics into the wild and running from grizzly bears guarding their young.

I tried a single course of grizzly therapy and was miraculously cured!

Conversion Therapy

Because nobody else actually gave a definition, opting instead to give their opinions, here's the definition I found on Wikipedia:
"Conversion therapy is the pseudoscientific practice of trying to change an individual's sexual orientation from homosexual or bisexual to heterosexual using psychological or spiritual interventions."

Conversion Therapy is indeed a form of brainwashing, but people should know the full definition, not just that it's bad.
