Rent must be due

A term used to describe a Twitter Blue/X Premium subscriber who posts an outlandish take or opinion for the sake of gathering rage clicks and engagement. As a Twitter Blue/X Premium subscriber, the more engagement they get from posts, the more money they can make from Twitter.

People will often use this term to predict that someone who is making these outlandish posts is probably doing so to make enough money to pay rent.

This also applies to YouTubers who suddenly make clickbait titles and thumbnails out of nowhere.

Twitter blue subscriber: “The Rock was the worst thing to ever happen to WWE”

renty

Of second rate quality. Not broken, but not excellent. A thing that may have been rented out many times to many different people.

I was gonna buy it, but it looked kinda renty.

Rentrat

A Rent fan who, back in the day, spent hours waiting online to get $20 front row tickets to see the show. Tickets were given on a first come basis, so you had to be there really early in the morning, and you purchased the tickets around 6pm. Now replaced with a 'lottery', which only requires you to show up 2 hours early and numbers/names are drawn from a hat. A true Rentrat sat four hours in the extreme cold, the extreme heat, the rain, the snow, etc., all for the love of the show.

Tourist: "Look at those poor homeless kids."
Rentrat: "We're not homeless, we're Rentrats."

Rent was due

Said when someone really enjoys a product, whether it be a movie, food item, song, etc. Meaning that the person who’s job it was to create it worked extra hard that time as “their rent was due.” Can be used in reference from anything to new flavors from a popular food brand, songs, movies, clothing brands, literally anything that involves someone being paid to do it in some way.

P1: That new oreo flavor is actually really good! Have you tried it?
P2: yeah those food designers’ rent was definitely due

P1: oh my god this new song is insanely good
P2: fr rent was due
