smiley gladhands 

As a noun, this slang term refers to individuals that are quick to offer a disingenuous handshake and smile. Although interest and affection from this person may seem legitimate, the severity of their fakery can range anywhere from half-hearted respect of social customs to malicious attempts at separating an individual or group from their money and dignity.

May also be used as an adjective, referring to the act of engaging in the above behavior.

Popularized in 1996 by Maynard James Keenan as lyrics in the song Ænema, performed by the band Tool.
"That used car salesman is being very smiley gladhands."

"I don't want to play smiley gladhands and hang out with your coworkers."

Gradarius 

A piece of shit AI artificial learning program to help students learn calculus. Fashioned at Stevens Institute of Technology, but apparently outsourced to Russia according to certain professors and students, this 14 million dollar program will let your perform 1000 calculations per second, and they're all wrong.

The note that came attached in the mail with the 14 million dollar check was "teach calculus", and by God, they've done it. With vague instructions to flat out impossible problems, the School of Innovation has done it again, with simple aesthetic flair. Daylight Savings, which wasn't accounted for in apparently any of the code, causes your assignments to be due an hour earlier, and also allows for the accelerated deterioration of your mental state as your professors simply cannot or will not assist you to solve that one MA 124 problem. In many cases, an email explaining that "Gradarius is broken and will not give me full credit" is enough to pass by on problems which you simply didn't understand anyways.

From MA 121 to 124, Gradarius will be the gentle guiding hand which will shove you off the 14th floor of Howe.

Oh yeah, and it costs $20 a semester, because fuck you.
"Oh, did you see ______ wearing that 'Fuck Gradarius' shirt?"
"Yeah, they got it custom. Man, that program is so jank. I wrote 1=2 and it accepted it as 'part of the essential steps toward the solution'".
"Fucking blue check, man".

Eighth-Grade Syndrome 

When someone around the age of 12-15 get engrossed into one topic such as a TV show or video game, and believes they are a part of it in the form of a Character or possessing the powers from the show or video game. In other cases, influences from shows or video games may not even be a cause.

Surprisingly, this is a quite serious phenomenon that happens in real life, and not just something that appears in the show “Chuunibyou Demo Koi Ga Shitai” as where it is most commonly known.

Symptoms may range from full-on costume wearing with quotes used within their everyday conversations, from acting completely normal with only them believing in themselves having some sort of power.

A common example of a subtle version of this syndrome would be kids having thoughts such as “I’m smarter than anyone” or “No one can understand my thoughts, It’s too complicated”.
“Ugh, that kid has Eighth-Grade Syndrome. He must think he’s so cool, when in reality he’s just pure cringe.”
