Slang term originating from the movie Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse. In movie, a canon event is an experience that is shared by all Spider People across the multiverse. These events are what build the personalities and livelihoods of the Spiders, and deviating and/or preventing canon events from happening can have dire consequences, up to and including the destruction of their universe and multiverse.
In real life slang, a canon event is a life experience that is so universally shared that it might as well be fated to happen, part of your real life canon so to speak. Like in the movie, these events make people who they are and more often than not they will grow somehow from it. Fumbling your first crush is often said to be one of the first real life canon events, and deviating from that outcome could have dire consequences...

Get the PEOPLE LEAKING PERPLEXPLORE EVENTmug. The specific, oddly focused mindset that takes over an MMO player during in-game limited time events, often resulting in them shunning all game content in order to just play the event and grind out every last drop of that time limited content. Also applies to mobile format games which mirror the limited time event model.
Man, I'd love to hit up the new raid, but I'm in total Event Autism mode here, I need to grind out the Summer dailies on my alts then get a few hundred more tokens to get that next cosmetic before I can call it quits for the day.

Get the Eventismmug. An event that requires an exception to the rules. Thought to always be possible, no matter how encompassing the rules are. Coined by @Yishan (Twitter) who credited Erik Martin, one of Reddit's first community managers, with the concept.
We have become so accustomed to the notion of “free speech, except” that we do not realize that free speech is ALWAYS limited, and that every limit arose from an Omega Event. - Yishan
