That Guy-ism

a disorder when you get so drunk...like drunk to the point of no return and you start doing/saying outlandish and ignorant things, mostly in a public setting. People look at you and they are blessed not to be you. You soon become a model of how not to live your life. You are the laughing stock of the bar or party, but more importantly, you are inevitably, “that guy.”
Damn bro I was busted up at the party last night, but Jason had a case of that guy-ism. He threw a punch at Eric, cussed out a chick and pissed our loveseat.

11-ism

The 1984 film "This is Spinal Tap" had a scene where a guitarist explains why they're so loud--the amps have volume dials that go to 11. When the interviewer asks why they don't just recalibrate so that 10 is the highest, there's a confused pause, after which the guitarist repeats, "These go to 11."

An 11-ism is any similar bit of clueless thinking.
Did you hear his defense of horoscopes? What an 11-ism!

I watched the political debates last night and have never heard so many 11-isms packed into one block.

irene-ism

the continuous practice of introverted geniuses that always claim to know nothing and be clueless while consistently claiming glory as the top performer on any academic exam
*Before Test*
Pete: How do you feel about the upcoming midterm?
Irene: I don’t know anything I’m terrified I’m going to fail
Pete: You always say that and get the top score
Irene: Nah nah nah I actually know nothing I’ll get the worst score

*After Test*
Pete: So how’d that exam go for you?
Irene: I did ok
Pete: Oh how’d it go? I got a 82 so I’m pretty happy
Irene: Just a 96
Pete: *sighs* …. the top score? ugh classic irene-ism

Preemptive-"ism"

A logical fallacy where claiming something is an "ism" (i.e. racism or sexism, etc) because a person(A) is part of a specific group and not because of specific comments or actions from person(B) towards that person(A).

Related to both "appeal to emotion" and "ad hominem" logical fallacies: By claiming "ism" one party appears as the victim (thus appealing to emotion) while smearing the other party negatively as racist, or sexist, or other (thus an ad hominem attack).
Jane: "Donald Trump interrupting Hillary Clinton during the debate is a sign of sexism."
Dan: "Why?"
Jane: "Well, because she's a woman."
Dan: "That's Preemptive-"ism", Jane."

Greg: "Obama's healthcare plan hasn't worked out too well for him."
Steven: "That's racist!"
Greg: "Why?"
Steven: "Because Obama is black!"
Greg: "That's Preemptive-"ism", Steven."
