To mistakenly underestimate. Means that you misunderstood something so poorly that you completely underestimated it, realizing later that it was a dire, but likely preventable (had you fully understood the situation), mistake.

Get the misunderestimate mug.When you think that you're interested but you really are not interested. Thinking about doing an action at first, then not accomplishing it, due to the lack of interest in it. You are interested at first. But when you look and dive deeper into it. You really don't give a single F. Most likely is due to the lack of knowledge, which means you'll lose any interest in no time. Other possibility is getting involved into one thing and never get to do it, and leave it after a little to no time.
Alex: I am hosting an event in LA, you want to join?
Allen: Oh Yes! Sure! *Doesn't bother to ask*
Alex in the day of the event *Calls Allen*: Where are you bro?
Allen: I think I don't fit into it, to be honest. Sorry.
Alex: You could have just told me that it was a missinterest.

Get the Misunderestimate mug.1. Generally, any sort of internet comment thread (community) where the individuals engaging in the thread conform to dominant beliefs, and are insular towards those that present a different viewpoint. Note that a disinterested thread is different from a chauvinistic thread, as the latter will aggressively attack different viewpoints, while the former simply does not care.
2. Specifically, any sort of internet comment thread—particularly on YouTube—where the individuals engaging in the thread (usually mid-late teens to young adults) are happy-go-lucky casuals and do not attempt to pursue the topic of interest further, often due to ignorance or a short attention span. Thus, when the so-called reply guy comes in with a paragraph, the casuals react with a "wut" attitude and completely dismiss his or her critical and edifying perspectives. This usually comprises of the entire thread either ignoring the intellectual all together, or replying back with something like "I don't get it" or "no one really cares". Further attempts of enlightening the casuals might only be perceived as an annoyance and may cause some of them to mute the comment thread.
Unfortunate to the intellectual, he or she might feel utterly neglected, and loses faith in the young generation's ability to think critically.
Combined with the typical "the internet is not school" mentality, casuals on the internet may never learn, and will object to any sort of information that challenges their mindset.

YouTube comment thread on a Mukbang video:
OP: Literally every time I see the word Mukbang in the title, I get super hungry, does that happen to anyone else?? {207 likes | 3 days ago}

> Psychology student: @Reply 4 Psychology student here. Actually, it has nothing to do with operant conditioning, what you're referring to is classical conditioning, which is the pairing of an unconditional stimulus with a neutral stimulus. You see, the word Mukbang is a neutral stimulus, but because it has been repeatedly paired with the concept of eating loads of food, it has a strong association with food, and food is an incentive that triggers ghrelin. {0 likes | 2 days ago}
