Someone who gently corrects your grammar.
Unlike a grammar nazi, who wishes to exterminate the errors in your ways (and possibly you along with them!), every grammar mountie is as calm and reassuring as their namesake, the beloved and gentle members of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police.

Turns out that I am dating a grammar mountie! She doesn't even mention it when I misuse a word in a sentence, she'll just use that word appropriately later and then smootch me when I recognize her tactful lesson. We will have many, well adjusted children who will win local spelling bees.

A computer program written by an academic (usually a graduate student, hence the name) for research purposes, usually with little to no regard for good coding standards, maintainability, security, or usefulness beyond what is necessary to produce a figure for a paper or a 30-second demo during a talk.
Single-letter (or Greek-letter) variable names, a complete lack of comments, and impossibility to install on any machine other than the ones in the basement of single building at a particular academic institution are common traits of gradware.
Single-letter (or Greek-letter) variable names, a complete lack of comments, and impossibility to install on any machine other than the ones in the basement of single building at a particular academic institution are common traits of gradware.
Gradware is not designed to be seen or used. In fact, it is designed to be almost impossible to run, so that the rare reviewer who actually attempts to use it to duplicate the results seen in a paper will give up after several hours of fruitless debugging and take the paper's results on faith.
Never build a practical piece of software on top of gradware. If you must, hire a programmer without a PhD to rewrite it for you.

Get the Imminent Graduation Apathy (IGA) mug.Social media graduation has several definitions. When someone has evolved past the need for social media. This is often due to factors such as financial stability within the majority of the population. Occasionally this happens towards the end of Rumspringa as a last chance to party before going offline permanently (or at the least, no longer using social media). Social media graduation also happens due to factors of age, and having outgrown social media in some form, even if graduate decides to continue to use other social media. When social media graduation happens, online & offline celebrations are common, often happening at the same time. Strictly offline celebrations are common as well. This sort of event can cause paradoxical feelings of intense joy, sadness, loss of friendships, and strengthening of existing ones. It can be as important to some people as a high school, college or university graduation, depending on their background & culture.
