Onion-take

Where a reader absentmindedly scrolls through their social media or news feed and encounters an article too strange or too sad to be real. The reader then reflexively reverses scroll direction to verify if the article is a piece of satire or authentic news.

Named for a portmanteau of Onion, a satirical news outlet, and the double take.

Alex was prompted to Onion-take while scrolling Facebook, and found themselves horrified to learn that the article about competitive-eater Kobayashi being beaten by Chris Christie was posted by BBC News and not The Onion.

Cheeseburger no onion

When you lose your shit over a trivial incident like ordering a cheeseburger with no onions, then you receive onions on the burger.

After that lady bumped into her cart at the grocery store, she went all cheeseburger no onion on her.

Pound the Onion

Common slang used by middle eastern men...it actually has a literal translation rather than a metaphorical one which may be imagined by non-middle eastern folks.

Refers to the massive eating frenzy's which take place amongst family and friends. Inclusive of Kabobs, Basmati Rice, & ofcourse Raw White Onions. Rice Dishes in the middle eastern culture which are accompanied by lamb, beef, chicken, and are always represented with a side of cut raw onions. Raw onions are served table side at most middle eastern restaurants alongside Lavash Bread as an appetizer.

Dude,

I'm starving for some Chelo Kabob. Its time to go Pound the Onion.
