The Elon Musk Power Down (noun)
/ˈē-län ˌməsk ˈpau̇(-ə)r daʊn/
1. The moment a man hits peak confidence, starts ranting about AI overlords, space orgies, or selling NFTs of his own balls—and then completely short-circuits mid-sentence like a sex robot with a Windows 95 processor.
2. The post-coital mental blackout that occurs when you climax while arguing about cryptocurrency. Often followed by a three-hour Reddit spiral and a mild existential crisis.
Warning: May result in accidental billion-dollar acquisitions or naming your kid after a Wi-Fi password.

“He was deep into a monologue about brain chips and free speech on Mars, then just stared into space like he nutted out his last coherent thought. Classic The Elon Musk Power Down (TEMPD).”

Wow, people really don't like that Trump Musk smell in their house. Who would have thought it could be so noxious.

noun
A particularly persistent and evolving odor characterized by its ability to intensify over time, resist conventional remediation methods, and require aggressive intervention to eliminate.
Etymology: Coined in 2025, combining references to persistence and escalation.
Characteristics:
Progressive Intensification: Unlike ordinary odors that dissipate or become less noticeable through olfactory fatigue, a Trump Musk grows steadily more potent and offensive with the passage of time.
Adaptive Resistance: Shows remarkable ability to resist standard deodorizing agents, air fresheners, and ventilation attempts. Conventional solutions often seem to strengthen rather than weaken its presence.
Pervasive Quality: Demonstrates an unusual capacity to permeate all elements of life making containment particularly challenging.
Psychological Impact: Creates increasing anxiety and distress in those exposed to it, as the realization dawns that normal remedies prove ineffective.
Elimination of a Trump Musk typically requires disproportionately aggressive interventions.

Simple Example:
Person one: Its getting worse.
Person two: hrm.
Person one: I think we have a Trump Musk problem
Person two: <<increasingly alarmed>> Fuck
Extended Example: The Unacknowledged Problem:
"The corporate culture at Nexus Industries had developed a Trump Musk. It started with small ethical compromises that everyone noticed but no one addressed. Management dismissed early complaints as 'sensitivity' while middle managers avoided mentioning the increasingly toxic environment in meetings.
As months passed, the problem intensified—high performer departures increased, customer complaints accumulated, and the company's reputation deteriorated. Still, leadership maintained there was no issue, despite the obvious stench of dysfunction permeating every department.
By the time investors finally acknowledged the problem, the Trump Musk had thoroughly saturated the organization. The board was forced to take drastic action: replacing the entire executive team, scrapping the company's operational structure, and rebuilding from the foundation up—at tremendous cost and disruption that could have been avoided had someone addressed the first whiffs of trouble years earlier.
