claire approach

The Claire Approach is a superb new academic method being exercized by children across the globe. Originating in the east side of MilwaukeeGhettoAss Wisconsin by a young struggling teen of fifteen years of age. Ckat exerted her incredible knack for doing absolutely nothing. Noticing that this approach made life one HELL of a lot easier Ckat continued to use this approach for just about everything. Tests, homework, and just life in general. Because remember kids, "the harder you try the less you succeed."

Mcrab: "Freaking grease***** assigned this HUGEASS paper on the freaking transendentalists!!!!"
Ckat: "No worries, just use the CLAIRE APPROACH."
Mcrab: "NICE!"

The velissarios approach

When someone (clearly a dumb and confused man) is trying to communicate with you in a weird passive aggressive way.
Sending you mb or challenging you in fb quizzes without actually speaking to you

Is he pulling a VA on you???

That's so VA (the velissarios approach) of him!

The Bonzi Approach

Overplanning. Pronounced “The BON-Zee Approach,” this technique involves mentally planning the exact sequence of events for the immediate future (such as what to do after getting out of bed), which usually takes more time than actually doing it.

Simon: I feel so organized! I used The Bonzi Approach this morning.

Charlotte: Is that why you were 70 minutes late?
