Na-ption

Pronunciation: /nop-shun/
A playful mashup of the words "Non-alcoholic" (NA) and "Option" describing an alternative choice of words that rolls off the tongue easier while ordering at a bar or restaurant. Asking a bartender what their "Na-ptions" are creates a more casual and playful way to order a Non-Alcoholic drink without actually saying the words "Non-Alcoholic Options". Using the term "Na-ptions" lowers the chance of too much unwanted attention in the establishment and avoids the stigma of being one of the only "Non-Drinkers" in the establishment. Choices of Na-ptions can be a non-alcoholic beer or a variety of Mocktail-Looking drinks that have the appearance of regular Alcoholic drinks.
"Hello Bartender! What are your Na-ptions tonight?"
"I have work in the morning and I gotta drive home. I'll stick with a Na-ption tonight if we go out."
"Steve thought ordering a Na-ption was a buzzkill, but once he tasted the virgin piña colada, he realized it was a non-stop tropical vacation for his taste buds."
"Ryans's Na-ption for the evening was a mocktail that looked so convincing, even his friends were tempted to try it instead of their usual cocktails."

Lag PTSD

Abstract: When you’ve been playing with bad specs all your life, causing you to feel like you’re framing and lagging even when you got a good PC.

Lag PTSD is the mental state of feeling like your PC is performing bad, when it is performing perfectly fine. As the name suggests, this condition is caused when a person has played or watched media all their life with a bad PC. This causes them to frame and lag frequently, and them having a less than average time gaming. Then, after they got used to their PC’s bad performance, when they get an actually good PC they continue to feel like they’re lagging and framing, even if the PC is tearing through the game at QHD 144+ FPS.

One of the more versatile solution to countering this is to have the game’s performance tab open. Seeing the frame counter at a stable and desired number can quell any feelings of lag and framing. Additionally, if this condition takes the variant of only occurring in retrospect, remind yourself that you can likely play Cyberpunk at 60 FPS+.

Lag PTSD can be caused by having less than 60 FPS on even the lightest of games at minimum graphics settings.
“I recently got a PC with a 9800X3D and a 5070 TI. I still feel like I’m lagging though. I lowkey might have lag PTSD.”

When a driver makes their turns at such a wide angle that you can only assume they used to be a commercial truck driver.
What is that old man doing? He made that turn so wide I thought he was going to fly off into that ditch. Maybe he used to be a truck driver so now he has Phantom Trailer Syndrome PTS?
