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.

Kenobi-ism

noun - an idiom used in a declarative statement which is true - but only from a certain point of view.

Kenobi-isms are often used when attempting to make complex issues seem simple, or trying to prove a point with statistical data - this makes them a favourite of politicians, religious leaders, and high-school science teachers.

The name Kenobi-ism refers to the Star Wars character Obiwan Kenobi and a plot-critical statement that he makes to a young Luke Skywalker in Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope:

"A young Jedi named Darth Vader, who was a pupil of mine until he turned to evil, helped the Empire hunt down and destroy the Jedi knights. He betrayed and murdered your father."

Luke eventually discovers the truth about his father and (2 movies later) confronts Obiwan accusing him of lying, to which Obiwan replies:

"So, what I told you was true... from a certain point of view. ... Luke, you're going to find that many of the truths we cling to depend greatly on our own point of view."
"I'm afraid that the Health Secretary is using a blatant Kenobi-ism there... Whilst it's true to say that the government spent more on public health this year than ever before, in real terms - accounting for inflation - this amount is 10% less than was spent 5 years ago."

Libby-ism

Baby stop making those animal noises, I’m not enjoying that Libby-ism.

Her-Daniel what time did you book the table?
Him-8pm
Her- well make sure you’re ready at 6, we don’t want to be late.

Him- it’s three blocks away
Her- I don’t want to risk being late
Him- not another Libby-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."
