Get the Victory mug.No matter what the media tells you, there is no such thing as victory over the coronavirus, there is only not losing more than what has already been lost (from lives to jobs to rights).

Get the Victory mug.There is no such thing as victory against the coronavirus, there is only not losing more. If nobody takes a stand, everybody takes a fall.
Not losing more lives, businesses, jobs, or rights isn't victory, it's an end to the spread of (and fuel for) the wildfire, an end to the loss of everything.

Get the Victory mug.There is no such thing as victory over the coronavirus, there is only the end of losing everything. If nobody takes a stand, everybody falls back in line.
The end of the coronavirus won't be a victory, it will only be an end to the loss of life, businesses, jobs, and rights. An end to the spread of (and fuel for) the wildfire.

Get the Victory mug.When you absolutely own someone and even though you win the argument you still don't get to do what you wanted to do for a completely different reason, but you can still go away with a smug feeling. Just to rub it in their faces you could shout Shame at them and rub your two pointing fingers together at them.
There is a normal queue and a fast track queue for zorbing.
Zorb Operator: All people in pink shirts please go to the back of the normal queue because your fast-track time has expired.
Peeps in Pink Shirts: No, I'll get my Mum on you!
Mum: Let them have a go now!!
Zorb Operator: No...
You: Shame (do the shame gesture)
Zorb Operator: Actually it's too windy now so you'll all have to go home...
You leave annoyed that you didn't get a go but very smug that you completely owned those pink people...
Pink Victory!

Get the Pink Victory! mug.The act of committing all of your efforts to stopping a particular rival from winning a competitive game/event once you realise you have no way of winning yourself.
Game of monopoly: 3 players left
"John you will give me all of your properties for only $500". "Yeh Jimmy sure, as long as you let me go around the board 3 times without having to pay rent". Cheeky smirk to the Bryn. John i'l give you $5000 for all of your properties and allow you not to pay rent on my properties for 3 turns. "Nah Bryn thats fine, i'm going to stick with Jimmy's deal".
As a result Bryn is quickly knocked out of the game, after which John immediately insults Bryn about how bad he is at the game, forfeits to Jimmy and enjoys the glory of his spite-victory.

Get the spite-victory mug.A “sideways victory” is an expression that describes an accomplishment that the popular opinion may not fully recognize, but an accomplishment which those who can adjust their perspectives may see the value in. Imagine; the letter V sideways may look like < , > , ^ , or even another angle. In order to see it in the upright position, you must either turn your head or the screen/paper you are reading on.
Similarly, in life, some circumstances or wins may not seem desirable or victorious from one perspective, but upon shifting your mindset, you may begin to see the victory in the circumstance or win. A sideways victory is a situation that you may not originally be able to see the good in, but after some thought or a shift in perspective, begin to notice the positive in.

When the pizza delivery arrived, Kelly noticed that they had gotten the toppings wrong.
“We ordered chicken and bacon. This is sausage and bacon… What’s up with that pizza place?” Kelly said to her roommate Winona, who had ordered the pizza. Kelly was upset at first that their order wasn’t delivered correctly.
“They were out of chicken when I ordered, so I asked for sausage instead.” Said Winona. “It’s not exactly what we wanted, but they gave us some coupons for a free pizza next time and some free cheesy bread sticks.”
“That’s kind of nice I guess. Sausage isn’t so bad and next time we’ll get the chicken for free. I like cheesy bread. A sideways victory.” Said Kelly.
After thinking about it, Kelly decided that the sausage and bacon pizza was still good despite being different from what she expected, and that the coupons and free bread were enough to make up for the pizza place’s lack of chicken. It was a sideways victory, but a victory nonetheless.
