Irish silencer

Using a potato on the muzzle of a gun in an attempt to muffle the sound of a shot.
Contrary to popular belief, the Irish silencer doesn't work and is more likely to blow up the gun than muffle the shot.

Layered silence

The act of one person ignoring another with sounds around them (tv, music, traffic, restaurant noise, etc.). The less time of silence the quicker the person realizes their indiscretions/fault and concedes to the other person being correct. The longer or no response is the disgust the wrong person has towards the correct individual and continued disagreement.
Person 1: The sky is blue. Person 2: layered silence (see description) or agreement/disagreement

Silencing

Silencing (ˈsaɪ.lənsɪŋ)

Definition:

1. (Verb) The act of shutting someone down in a conversation by ignoring, dismissing, or overriding them—often in a way that makes them feel irrelevant, unheard, or excluded.

Silencing isn’t just interrupting someone—it’s when someone (or a whole group) actively disregards what you say, making you feel like your words don’t matter.

The person being silenced might get a half-hearted “Aha” before the conversation moves on, or they’re completely ignored as if they weren’t even speaking.

2. (Noun) A toxic social dynamic where someone is made to feel invisible in a discussion by being ignored, dismissed, or talked over—either by individuals or by an entire Silent Team.

Silent Teams are groups that subtly silence someone by collectively excluding them from the conversation, either intentionally or unconsciously.

Being silenced makes you feel like the third wheel, even when you’re actively trying to participate.
Example – How it’s used in a sentence:

1. "I was trying to explain my point, but they kept interrupting and ignoring me. Total silencing move."

2. "Dude, that was straight-up silencing—he just dismissed what you said and hijacked the conversation."

3. "I hate hanging out with that group. Every time I speak, I get silenced like I’m not even there."

4. "JD Vance and Trump completely silenced Zelensky with their hand gestures—like, they straight-up signaled for him to stop talking."

5. "I was talking to my friend, and this random guy just silenced me, ignoring everything I said to focus on her instead."

Silencing

The act of two homosexual un-circumsized men begin the sexual act of inserting one long object into each of their urethra, also known as "Sounding". They must insert the object deep enough into their urethras that the tips of their penises are touching. Once the object is fully inserted and the tips touching, the two homosexual men must now "dock" each other. Since the object is clogging both homosexual men, neither can release their semen, thus, silencing the most intense orgasms.
