Beauty Standards

A traditional form of beauty, typically for a certain country. Essentially just the ‘typical’ form of beauty. For example; in Japan, it’s a beauty standard to have larger eyes. Or, how in Mexico, it’s a beauty standard to have lightly tanned skin. Beauty standards vary from country to country, or from person to person, so it isn’t all the same globally.
Jessica: What are beauty standards?
Anne: A typical form of beauty in a country.
Jessica: So may I fit the beauty standard in one country but not another?
Anne: Just because you don’t fit into a certain beauty standard doesn’t mean you’re ugly overall! Different countries have different standards.

The Thriller Standard

Where fans, various music review sources and others use the Thriller Album to compare it to all other Michael Jackson's musical works and CD/album releases.

A review system of using the musical compositions on the original Thriller album released on November 30, 1982 to judge how great MJ's other works should be, knowing that other works will never live up to what that album was able to do musically, lyrically and for the music industry as a whole.
MJ's latest CD release is a hodge podge of garbage his producers need to get back to The Thriller Standard.

The Thriller Standard is the only standard for me.

The Bad Album only sold 30 million copies worldwide, MJ was off his game he can't touch the Thriller Standard.

IST (Irene Standard Time)

Is not defined by a synchronization of clocks within a geographical area or region, but is represented by one single person who's community has accepted that her time runs differently from everyone else. IST is represented not by time, but by phrases, where depending on what she says in her announcements, the community can determine when she will stream and plan accordingly. Usually no one plans accordingly and we just tease her about it.
There exists 4 distinct times that IST (Irene Standard Time) exists in:
"Irene is asleep"
"Irene is awake"
"Irene says she'll stream but goes to sleep"
And finally
"Irene says she'll stream in an hour but it's actually 6 hours"

double standard

a useless code that only exists to have immature people make fun of you
Some more examples of double standards:

A musician in any other form of music sings about a problem. Nothing happens. But when a singer in the pop music field sings about a problem, they get dissed, having the disser falsely believe that the star has everything and shouldn't complain.
At my job, there are quite a few male consumers who have female staff. But the number of female consumers having male staff is extremely rare. There are a couple of exceptions to that rule, though.
A woman rapes a boy and marries him because she is pregnant with his child. They appear on the news. A man rapes a girl and the girl is pregnant with his child. Nothing else happens to them.
A woman cries. Nothing more happens to her. A man cries. He gets taunted and teased because he's been told that men don't cry.
Black musicians get the Tv station BET. White musicians don't get anything like that. If they did, they'd be considered racist.
A disabled person gets made fun of because of something they do. The insulter gets away with the taunting. If the disabled person fights back, they get the punishment.
