kismesissitude

Kismesissitude involves both mutual hate and mutual sexual attraction between two individuals. Kismeses do NOT "hate each other but love each other on the inside"; it's TRUE hate, felt equally by both parties. This is called a caliginous relationship.

The term was coined in the webcomic Homestuck, written by Andrew Hussie, and refers to one of many forms of romance of an alien species known as trolls.

Though fueled by rivalry, defeating or killing your kismesis is discouraged since that would obviously end the relationship. Kismeses must be equally matched for the rivalry to be fulfilling; if one consistently bests the other neither will feel the satisfaction of competition. Sexual attraction is a part of this as well; kismeses may engage in hatesex.

Kismesissitude can be either healthy or abusive. A caliginous relationship must involve mutual respect, admiring each other's strengths even while hating one another. If the relationship makes one or both parties feel inferior, it's unhealthy. Kismesissitude should encourage each individual to improve themselves so that they may surpass one another; if both parties do this, both will continue to grow trying to match one another.

It was previously thought that only trolls could develope caliginous feelings for one another, but recent updates in the Homestuck webcomic suggest that a troll and a human may be able to form kismesissitude.

Also known as blackrom, black romance, hatemance, and caliginous romance.

When you are not optimistic, you are lacking Kiamism: the art of reassuring oneself that everything will be just fucking fabulous (even when you are dead sure it won't be okay) - Kiamism is usually paired up with rum and destroyed electronics.

Kismass

Respectful way of telling Kiss my ass when in a holy site in the august presence of religiously sensitive people and in the absence of sensible reporters, so that you could say the nasty thing faking it sound like a religiously acceptable expression.

This way you get praised for cussing someone publicly and keep your constituency intact.

The credit goes to ... Rick Gorka and his boss Mitt Romney performing in Poland for inspiring me to shove this term in here.

If only I had had the inspiration earlier, I could have saved poor Ricks job, assuming that he regularly refers to Urban Dictionary for inspiration.
Rick: " Kismass! This is a holy site! Show some respect!"
