Get the Globohomo mug.Related Words
Portmanteau of "Globalist Homogenization", and a critique of capitalism which claims that it is erasing cultural identities and traditional beauty. This is evident in the pervasive, samey-looking modern architecture styles (usually ones that are full of glass), that purport to be "modern" and "progressive" but are actually just ugly and depressing. Another example is the "corporate art style", known as "alegria", that is universially condemned as hideous.
Often mistakenly believed to be a portmanteau of "globalist homosexual" by both alt-right troglodytes and their critics. Globohomo is instead a critique of corporatism and how it homogenizes and devalues culture in the name of a futuristic utopian ideal. Everyone who is not a technocratic elite hates it for its fakeness and mass-produced nature, which is the same reason people tend to dislike kitsch art.

Get the Ghebougie mug.A telemarketing call conducted by a bank of operators in a (third world) country as an attempt to rival the annoyance of the Robocall but with a personal touch and presumably without adding cost.
A good Globocall is characterized by any of the following: severe phoneline static, several seconds of latency, a caller with an essentially incomprehensible accent, and of course a caller that clearly has no idea where you are or what you may be doing at the time of these always inconvenient calls.

I'm sure glad we outsourced our super annoying telemarketing campaign. Those Globocallers are much more sympathetic than the machines. Too bad they sound like they are 300 ft under water, or in an elevator, or both.
