Natural Selection

1. Universe's way of making your life miserable.
2. An event in nature.
3. That one edgy kid's shirt.

1: The goddamn universe gave me natural selection! Aw hell!
2: I've been naturally selected because that is what happens when I win the race.
No need to explain number 3.

Selective Input

Most commonly used in digital parties such as Discord, Xbox, PS4. Selective input occurs when a person chooses only to speak when they feel comfortable, usually within a Safe Space. It is used by cowards, and people who cannot generate a unique comeback. A user of selective input is most often also a lurker.

Josh was just roasted and did not respond choosing to use selective input.

Josh:

Gavin: Patrick how did you die you absolute bot.
Josh: ... Patrick is addicted to Fortnite and has anger issues.
Gavin: Yeah, Patrick you are a Nutist.
Patrick: No I’m not!
(An argument between Patrick and Gavin ensues)

selective double standard

A double standard based more on somebody's personal negative feelings than on fairness.

Lindsay the supervisor would order people she hated to do more work than everyone else (move the goalposts on them) and was quicker to try and get them fired if she hated them (a negative feeling towards them she would always deny having or say someone else felt that way if asked simply, plainly, and directly) whether they did their jobs as well as everyone else or not. She lived by the same kind of selective double standard she would always try and poke fun at others for having.

Selectively Genius

The characteristic describing someone who claims they are smart, yet they choose not to be. this justifing their actions being in opposition to the claim. Usually the person relies on the term as a fallback to hide their insecurities regarding their scholastic disadvantage

Person 1 “Wow, I can’t believe you did that! You are so dumb!”

Person 2 “I’m not dumb, I’m selectively genius!”

Selective hearing

Selective hearing refers to the way people only hear a part of what someone is saying — often, it's what they want or expect to hear — and miss out on the rest.

This tends to cause conflict, riffs and miscommunication in relationships.

It is also very annoying and RUDE.

Sophie Hawker 's selective hearing makes holding a conversation with her a time job.
