"Yea. They really got melvined. Hey, by the way, can you spot me a quick handy behind Wendy's? I'll give you some GME later."

Sticky Melvin

When you melt a snickers bar between your butt cheeks and then immediately put the same snickers bar in between your partners butt cheeks.

you did a melvin

In the years leading up to 2022, Melvin Capital made bets against key stocks within the USA stock market, after retail investors noticed inconsistencies with the stock, specifically the huge short position that Hedge Funds (including Melvin Capital) had accrued. Retail traders realized that these positions would at some stage need to be bought back so they independently decided to buy up the stock.

Melvin Capital essentially went bankrupt due to some very poor decision making and lack of proper risk management.

The phrase "you did a melvin" was coined in 2022 to indicate that your lost money, or made bad decisions which affected you negatively.

Jeez Kenny - you did a melvin on that trade huh?

Melvin

An extremely stupid (and somehow not illegal) play on the stock market by an institutional investor which results in billions of dollars of damage to the company who made the play. Typically due to extreme greed such as shorting stock by over %100 in the hopes of buying it back after it drops to zero dollars.
Named for the company holding the short position during the 2021 GME Short Squeeze

GME is a company with no intrinsic value! They'll be bankrupt by the end of 2020! Let's Melvin it! What's the worst that could happen? Only a total retard would try to squeeze us here...

Melvining

When a man is challenged to a fight by another man, and starts crying and peeing their pants instead of fighting. Often they will also poop their pants.

Steve started Melvining the second that goof Big Rick challenged him to a fight.

Melvined

To be scammed by someone who is clueless they're clueless.

Dr. Paul: "Hi Lori, you're looking a little upset this morning. Care to talk about it?" "Oh Dr. Paul...I don't know what to do...this guy Melvin... just cost me hundreds of dollars in service fees by lying to my credit card provider, telling them I never sent him his order. But I did...I really did. I had all my paperwork work proving I did, but the bank took his side regardless and won't pay me. I've been...oh....ahhhh...I've been Melvined"....
