Get the kep mug.
Kep
A combination of "yup" and "k".It is simply a term to fill the empty void when someone proclaims something that you think is a bluff and to evoke the satirical feel you say 'kep', questioning them in silence and disguising your words in doubt.However it can also be used normally as a substitute for "yup" but without all the perkiness and all the groovy in the world.When used normally it's just like a 'yea sure' approval kinda thing.

KEP
(From Greek klept- to rob, & Latin capere to seize)
Kepism is a mentality defined by the parasitic dependency of humans on non-human animals—regardless of the suffering involved.
A "kep" refers to any exploitative, wrong action humans should not do. Kepism necessitates animal objectification, inherently precluding true decency.
It identifies the systematic seizure of animal life, labor, and bodies. Like a pickpocket who steals without causing physical pain, Kepism is defined by the "taking" itself, independent of whether suffering or "interest violations" occur. It spans from brutal forms (conscious dismemberment of awake animals) to seemingly "harmless" ones (taking a found bird feather).
Kepism covers false beliefs like: "animals are objects that exist for humans to use" or "a cow's skin is a leather jacket."
Examples of Kep Actions:
Medical/Science: Dissecting frogs, testing on mice/rabbits, harvesting horseshoe crab blood, extracting bear bile, using fetal bovine serum.
Agriculture/Diet: Branding cows, castrating piglets, separating calves from mothers, shearing sheep, milking goats, eating meat/seafood (pork, veal, duck, foie gras, caviar, fish), consuming whey or casein.
Materials/Fashion: Wearing suede, shearling, silk, or ostrich leather, using animal glue, taking bone for carving.
Wildlife/Pets: Taking found feathers or abandoned nests, catch-and-release fishing, clipping wings, declawing cats, docking tails, breeding purebreds, dog fighting, snake charming.

Kep-talk
When a group of people ,who all feel what they're saying is more important than what everyone else is saying. The volume grows exponentially and sometimes leads to violence or bad blood.
