A computer can't function without an operating system

A total lie usually mentioned in computer textbooks when talking about operating systems. Older computers sometimes do not have an operating system, so this is totally a lie because these computers can still function. Also, even modern computers can make use of the Basic Input Output System (BIOS) to do some basic tasks such as viewing and changing the date.

School textbooks: "A computer can't function without an operating system!"
1930s computer operator: "wtf is that"

Functional marginalized whiner

A black kid that never got their ass whooped by an authority figure (such as a parent) as a kid, then they get out into the world where not everybody has to be nice or refrain from cursing all the time and all of a sudden it's harder to be them than it is to be anybody (especially somebody with lighter skin/hair).

Nobody ever picked on the functional marginalized whiner, instead people usually picked on people they thought were easier targets, people with lighter skin and hair, people that seemed more childish and fucked up, people that didn't seem as together.

function check

A function check is a military euphemism for male masturbation, as if to compare the penis to a weapon.

Private Duffy, perform a function check on that M4 rifle.

Yo man, I’m so horny I’m going to go perform a “function check”. If you know what I mean.

Ian function

The lan Function or lan's Function is a series of memes about attending a function at a person named lan's house and having horrible things happen to them. The meme trend was popularized on TikTok in February 2024 through a series of slideshows about attending "the lan function."
