Selective Lyricism

When people only sing the popular lyrics of a trending song to look cool.
"Cool" girl: Certified loverboy certified pedophiles! I LOVE KENDRICK LAMAR
Person: Why're you using Selective Lyricism"? Sing the whole song?
"Cool" girl: I don't know the whole song. I just like this part.
Person: All for clout.

Example 2:
Girl: THEY NOT LIKE US *3, *gibberish until the next "THEY NOT LIKE US"
Boy 1: Why isn't she singing the rest bro? She told she listens to KDot.
Boy 2: MAn she's using "Selective Lyricism" to fit in. Bet she can't decode this song.
Boy 1: Yeah i wonder if she knows that it's a Disstrack.
Girl: THEY NOT LIKE US!

girl scout cookie selectivity

The quality of still being able to manage oneself with something one wishes to indulge in while this one thing is not readily available year round. One does not buy all the girl scout cookies one can. Instead one remains prudent and only buys what one will enjoy and in a timely manner. This can also simply be called self-discipline, but these cookies are a real test.
Despite having the desire to buy many different types and boxes so that she could ravenously devour them to the point of shame. Brenda employed her girl scout cookie selectivity and bought one box of four different types so that she may enjoy two cookies per day for a few months.

Blank Selection

Blank Selection is a term instituted by Wendy Beach (Editor-in-Chief, Wild Whispers Poetry Magazine) to replace the common ableist “blind selection” label still in use (referring to anonymous editorial processes), and is retained as no alternative terminology currently exists. Blank Selection as a new term replaces the ableist “blind selection” practice, where judges assess poems without knowing poets’ names. The name consciously parallels blank verse’s liberation from formalist restrictions, extending this ethos to combat restrictive language in editorial processes.
The poetry competition had a blank selection process to keep it fair.

That one family who can afford eating out, vacations, purchasing a new car, buying LEGO sets, action figures, textbooks, and DVDs, yet somehow still too broke to afford buying any new gaming console beyond PS1.
The Sherbrooke family is such family with selective affordability — they've got all the LEGO sets, action figures, textbooks, and DVDs but still rock a broken PS1 with no replacement like it's the latest console!

Natural selection

The act of doing something really stupid, and facing severe consequences because of it such as injury or worse.
Person 1: Dude, have you heard about Tom??? He broke his leg after he tried to use a skateboard on a a trampoline!

Person 2: Pfft, that's just natural selection to be honest.

Selective altruism

Selective altruism is essentially when someone imprints on one to very few people, and ends up being aggressive to anyone else.
Person 1 “would you stop being such a selective altruist?” Selective altruism at work
Person 2, actively ready to swing at person 1 for making a crude joke about person 2’s chosen human being. “I’ll make your insides your outsides.”
