Context Dude 

The Context Dude: a dude who's for sure a 6 but registers as a 10 in the context of the 3's and 4's he's surrounded by. The context dude exists in several environments including the classroom, the workplace, and both small and large scale social settings. The context dude is good for many things such as motivating u to look presentable at work or even just making your Monday 8am more bearable. However, when you first encounter the context dude out of context, your entire world may begin to change as you genuinely start question your vision/taste/character/sanity and u might in fact never trust yourself again. So please, keep the context dude in context and don't ruin it for the rest of us. He is probly a good dude, but we like him better in context.
You can always pull a solid context dude at a wedding.

Any good context dudes in that 8am science class?

Context-sensitive 

1. Adj. Used to describe words that have multiple meanings in which said meanings are typically used in drastically different contexts, sometimes resulting in said words becoming offensive when taken out of context.

2. Adj. Describes video game controls in which pressing a button in a certain situation(or context, hence the name) causes something to happen which usually progresses the game in some manner.
Ex 1: The word "raped" is very context-sensitive, as it it can mean the horrendous act of sexual humiliation, or when someone is utterly destroyed in a game or competition.

Ex 2: "Conker's Bad Fur Day" has so many context-sensitive controls, that there's even an NPC in the beginning that explains the concept to the player.

Context Randi

Context Randi (noun):
A person who lacks the intellectual capacity or emotional maturity to understand the context of a discussion, yet feels mysteriously empowered to comment, judge, and troll with full confidence.

Context Randi:
Someone who doesn’t understand the situation, the background, or the nuance — but still arrives loudly with half-baked opinions and full-blown outrage.

Context Randi:
An individual who mistakes ignorance for insight, and volume for validity — attacking narratives they never bothered to understand.

Context Randi:
That species of human who skips comprehension but never skips commentary.
“Not everyone who speaks has understood — some are just certified Context Randis.”

Oh, that guy? Total Context Randi. He plucks one word out of an entire conversation, ignores its meaning and background, and then twists it to fit his own botched-up narrative.”
