inertiative

An obnoxious contraction of "inertia" and "initiative". Together, they combine to mean 'taking the lead in doing the same thing we were doing before'.

Matt wants to get some dinner, but Brian took the inertiative and hasn't moved from the couch.

Gay Initiation

It's when someone gives another person the ultimate gay shit test. It's to see if the person claiming to be gay, is in fact a true gay, or just pretending to be gay because he wants to fit in with the popular crowd. The one claiming to be gay lies down on his back on the floor, & the other person of any gender or sexual preference pulls down their pants & squats down over the gay-claiming guy's face, & takes a massive scat right on his face. You know he passed the gay initiation when you see him embrace your shit with complete acceptance & joy. Gays are so use to touching other guys shit when wiping it off of their penis after they penetrated the guys anus. A fake gay will either cry, or beg you to stop.

Guy 1: "Hey Joe, who's that new guy showing up in our bath house? Do you think he's one of us, or just a poser?"
Guy 2: "Not sure. Let's give him the gay initiation to be sure."
