The Gabby Phenomenon

Definition: A strange occurrence where you have that one friend in the group that you never seem to be mad at, just slightly annoyed by their presence.

History: Discovered by a teenager high school student, surprisingly named Gabby, began to notice that all her friends were slightly annoyed in a humorous way by her appearance, but never distasteful towards her. She decided to begin an experiment to see if this theory was possible. The results came back from a good portion of her friends and it was ruled that The Gabby Phenomenon is true. In large friend groups it is highly plausible to have a friend with The Gabby Phenomenon, but you still love them anyway.
It was concluded that The Gabby Phenomenon was true as it was discovered that I am the annoying friend that no one hates.

Eat a phenomenal dick

When you use the “fuck around and find out” approach to R&D and end up accidentally reinventing the wheel, literally and/or metaphorically.

The emotional comedown after you’ve realised your stupidity is best described to feel like “eating a phenomenal bag of dicks” or for short, “eating phenomenal dick”.

The phrase relates to and is sprung out of the insulting phrase “eat a bag of dicks”, but is more general and can be applied to others, oneself, and concepts.
Andrew: did you see that Peter invented a bike that has square wheels with tank treads?

Andrew: yeah, the whole concept eats phenomenal dick.
