Teaching Hubris

When a teacher that teaches an elective or other nonsense subject, such as chorus, assigns a large, time-consuming, difficult and mundane assignment in order to make your life miserable. They do this to make themselves feel better about the fact that they teach a subject that nobody cares about, trying to make themselves feel like an ACTUAL teacher. They often do this at a time when it is extremely inconvenient for you, for instance, when your time would be better spent studying for midterms.

Mike: "Did you hear about the research paper that the home economics teacher is forcing us to write on the history of muffins?"
Emily: "Really? When I have finals to study for? That is such teaching hubris."

freshman hubris

Idiotic behavior among college freshmen, usually in the form of egocentric rambling, that would lead us to believe that they know everything, if we didn't know better.

Is that guy STILL talking about the book he's writing on zen buddhism? He's so full of shit!!

Yeah, he's got a bad case of freshman hubris.

Hubris

Advanced arrogance, overstating ones self worth, a narsistic mentality that your milkshake actually brings all the boys to the yard.

example: An attractive (yet Hubris) girl approches a man standing at the bar expecting a free drink or something of monetary value.

Note: this example doesn't apply at strip clubs... please then refer to recriprocity

Hubris Hollister

A general pseudo name for a snobby, shallow, prissy, materialistic good looking man who shops at Hollister, Abercrombie, American Eagle, Urban Outfitters, Aeropostale, etc. to achieve that “worn” look, but is too stuck up to actually buy something from a thrift store for the authentic thing. Hubris Hollisters are usually self proclaimed foodies, define themselves as hipsters, only drink Starbucks, exercise excessively and rarely have girlfriends. Hubris Hollisters are a detriment to themselves because of their obvious pathetic screaming cry to be cool - partnered with the total lack of common sense to do naturally instead of “buying it at the mall.”

EVERYBODY under 30 knows at least 3 Hubris Hollisters personally!!! GENERAL EXAMPLES: The majority of male students age 14 to 30 who either come from families with money or want to appear as if they do. Overeducated 30 something men with low self esteem problems. Foreigners trying to look American.

Hebris

Hebris is a way of showing a friend or companion your appreciation towards them in a quick but respectful manner. Hebris can be combined with a signature hand gesture so that outsiders would automatically be aware that Hebris appreciation is currently being shown.

Although Hebris can be a sign of joy and content with another person it can also be used in hurtful manners. When this other meaning of Hebris is used then inanimate objects can be included.

Hebris my friend, hebris
