Papoof

Surprisingly old, yet somewhat niche, slang for a fart. Popular among women born in the late 20s…like my grandmother. Onamonapoetic
Oops! I papoofed!

Did she just papoof?

Stop papoofing!

Proof or Ban

Commonly used in r/WallStreetBets, a subreddit most commonly known for gambling in the stock market, “Proof or Ban” is used in response to someone who posts about a stock trade or stock position they have entered into but has provided zero proof of them being in that trade. If the user does not provide proof, they get banned from the subreddit forever.

It’s similar to the expression of “Put up or Shut Up”

Can also be used in other contexts outside of the subreddit or stocks in general. However it will work best in group chats with friends.
Friend 1: “Bro. You remember Sally? She was that super hot chick we met at the bar a couple weeks ago.

Friend 2: “Yeah, what about her?”

Friend 1: “You’ll never believe it bro, but she just sent me an Instagram dm saying that she would totally let me pipe and that I was the sexiest guy she had ever seen.”

Friend 2: “Bro you’re totally right. I don’t believe it at all. Proof or ban.”

Proof is a proof

A botched attempt by former Canadian Prime Minister Jean Chretien in late 2002, demanding evidence of weapons of mass destruction in Iraq.
"Well, I don't know ... a proof is a proof. What kind of a proof? It's a proof. A proof is a proof, and when you have a good proof, it's because it's been proven."

Proof by lack of evidence

The proof by lack of evidence fallacy is claiming something is true simply because nobody has yet given any evidence to the contrary.
Torturer: You are a heretic! You can't prove that you aren't one, so you are a heratic. Confess, or we will stretch your body out until you are a foot taller.

Accused: Ha, you did it - you committed the proof by lack of evidence fallacy!

Torturer: That's enough out of you. Brutus, give the wheel another turn.

Proofshitpost

The aggressive, bad-faith demand for impossible or irrelevant levels of formal proof ("peer-reviewed studies only") to discredit an opponent's lived experience or a well-established social fact. The goal isn't to get proof, but to move the goalposts indefinitely, knowing the demand can't be met in the context, thereby declaring victory by default.
Proofshitpost Example: When presented with statistics and personal testimonies about systemic racism, a responder says, "I'll need a double-blind, controlled study where identical twins of different races apply for the same jobs, or this is just correlation. Until then, I don't believe you." This is proofshitposting—using an inappropriate standard of "proof" from hard science to invalidate social reality and halt discourse.
