The practice of quipping faux-intellectual droppings, ideally on Twitter by influential tech people. Utterances should have a healthy mix of sociology, anthropology, technology, and why yes, cryptocurrency bullshit. It is named after a certain venture capitalist.

Noun: The semi-stupefied state that a boat owner falls into when the weather is sunny and the seas are calm, but they are stuck at work. Often, this state is punctuated by staring longingly out the nearest ocean-facing window. May also be seen in surfers stuck work while the waves are breaking.

As we all know, the female breast gives out large quantities of tractor beams drawing a guy's eyes to the prize. Melon gazing is the act of staring with a stupid expression straight at a woman's chest until she slaps you or leaves.
Woman: Is there a less harsh way you could melon gaze?
Man: What? Oh, yeah, car insurance and stuff.
*continues to gaze*
Woman: OMG! The male race are pigs!
*slaps man and becomes lesbian*
