Century Fail

Derived from online videos charting the 'Fails of the Century', Century Fail is used when a fail is just too spectacular for one year to contain it.

Today I went for ice cream with a friend of the opposite sex. My girlfriend was texting me, asking me where I was. To pacify her, I told her I was desperately trying to get away from some girl who won't stop talking - But I accidentally sent the text to said girl, as she sat next to me. She started to cry into her ice cream. Century Fail.

20th Century Glazer

A loud (enough) minority that worships anything (usually music or creative media) dated as 19XX, or regarding the 20th century. Most of the glazers are 90s-2000s kids, although a good amount are just nostalgic old people. Quotes to spot them: "todAy's MuSic SucKs", "I wAs BoRn iN tHe WrOng GenErAtion", "tHe 80s wAs sUch a BetTer eRa", etc. While there is some logic behind the statement (Only so many chords and melodies and ideas exist, inflation and worse living standards), the past was not exactly a better place (discrimination, less technology, less knowledge, {more likely to die, and/or get fucked over in life because of the two previous disadvantages} etc.)

"Hey did you listen to the new songs released this year"
"UmM, aCtuALly I tHinK mUsIc NoWaDays sUcks"
"Goddamnit, it's a fucking 20th Century Glazer"

Centuries of tradition

Oh being held comically hostage by a reality monster that till burn your souls forever if you do a book wrong...

Hym "And held further hostage by the literal people burning cosmic slaves of the reality monster.... That's the centuries of tradition... Do what I tell you or I'll burn you alive and the a mad Jim Jaspers type is going to burn you forever after I burn you... That's the tradition. But we stopped burning you though guys! We stopped burning you (the creature is still going to burn you) but now we just cannibalize you in abstraction guys.. We're fine now..."
