Get the Grum Rate mug.Just like a group of owls form a Parliament and a flock of crows is called a Murder, a gathering of members and/or adherents of the MAGA political sect will henceforth be named a Grumble of Magats (a takeoff on the actual term Grumble of Maggots).
President Trump addressed an unusually rambunctious grumble of magats this evening as gas prices nationwide surpassed the $5 per gallon mark. Some of the attendees were actually foaming at the mouth.

The spontaneous act of grabbing a tire—usually a spare, but any will do—and aggressively slapping, thumping, or drumming on it like it’s a bass drum in a rock concert. Often done in workplace environments to boost morale, summon primal energy, or just make coworkers laugh until they cry. Gromfrumping is equal parts performance art, stress relief, and absurd ritual.
“Dude, we were falling asleep on the job, then Trevor walked in gromfrumping a tractor tire. Whole vibe shifted.”
“I caught Jen gromfrumping behind the shop again. I think it’s her coping mechanism.”

A stereotypical male character, commonly found in film, television, and literature, who is emotionally reserved, physically rugged, and motivated by a protective instinct, often directed toward a single individual. Typically depicted as taciturn, brooding, and psychologically burdened, the Gruffer operates on duty rather than empathy, masking deep-seated emotional complexity with abrasive behaviour.

The show’s lead is another Gruffer — emotionally unavailable, scowling through every scene, yet somehow willing to die for a kid he won’t even make eye contact with.
Subtext:
The term Gruffer is a modern neologism coined by Rashida Lee of Harlem -first, of her name-to critique a recurrent character trope in media — the emotionally stunted, hyper-masculine antihero with a protective streak.
Lore:
Gruffers are descendants of archetypes that thrived in the psychological shadow of the cultural Dark Ages — knights, ronin, lone warriors — functional protectors forged more by trauma than by leadership. As societal narratives shifted from communal harmony to survival and self-reliance, the Gruffer emerged as a necessity: not to lead, but to endure, to shield, and to persist when optimism failed. Positioned most often as sentries, guardians, or reluctant mentors, Gruffers act not out of warmth, but from an unshakable internal code — Duty.
Though often mistaken for heroes, Gruffers lack the r inspiration to lead. They are task-driven, strategic, and emotionally underdeveloped, bearing the facial topography of men who have not slept in peace for years. Slightly less than handsome, visibly unkempt, and always cloaked in understated competence, they are rarely the light in the story — but they are its spine. The “muffin” descriptor speaks to this exact contrast: the Gruffer is not glamorous or sweet, but when all else crumbles, he’s what’s left standing.
