schrodinger's criminal

One who makes criminal statements, particularly suggesting committing a crime, attempting a crime or otherwise endorsing a crime to be committed, then decides whether they were “just joking” or dead serious based on whether other people in the group approve or not.

The president, playing schrodinger's criminal, said voters could send a mail ballot and then try to vote in-person to see if the mail ballot was tabulated.

schrodinger's creep

When you say something creepy and decided if it was creepy or not depending on if they take it as a complement or get creeped out

Schrodinger's creep is like when someone says "Your legs look really good" and then depending on if it's an awkward laugh then silence or a thank you you would decide if it was creepy or not

Schrodinger's Man

A man who will either protect you or make it so you need protecting.

Schrodinger's man will argue it's "not all men" but it's up to you to find out if he is.

Schrodinger's Bussy

When you have spotted a tomboy that's equally girly and boyish that the only for you to distinguish what gender they are is to either be notified of it or take a gander and check if there is a dick or not. If you take the latter way however, you expect that there might be a dick which makes you gay. Good luck gay boy

Some poor soul : "Oh, is that a femboy or tomboy. I really don't know lets check"
*checks underneath the person's skirt and finds a massive schlonger*
Schrodinger's Bussy strikes again

pulling a Schrodinger

Making a half-sarcastic comment to a group of people that can be rebuked as sarcasm/banter if unappreciated, or just as easily allowed to slide if it's appreciated.

The name is derived from the famous Schrödinger's cat experiment, a demonstration of the concept of quantum superposition. 'The cat in this box is either dead or alive, and we have no way of knowing for certain until we open the box...'

1: "Mark just made a joke about women's rights. He's uh... he's being sarcastic, though, right...?"
2: "That guy is just pulling a Schrodinger to gauge the overall social climate here. See that? The douche just took it right back!"
1: "Damn..."
