Rating Inflation

Usually used simply as "Inflation", Rating inflation occurs from someone's affinity for a certain quality or multiple qualities of someone of the opposite sex while checking them out and rating them. This is based off of the 1-10 scale. When someone is 'rating inflating' or suffering from rating inflation they will usually score the person of the opposite sex above what they actually are and as a consequence will psyche themselves out when trying to approach the person to hit on them. Also usually causes an immediate reaction of the group the inflater is in to barrage them with insults.

Side effects include: Lack of confidence, creepy wheezing, shaking, wet dreams, viruses from specialized porn sites, and in severe cases public humiliation.

Dack: Damn boys, look at that HB(Hot babe). 10, no doubt!
Friend 1: That's fuckin' disgusting, she's a 3 at best.
Friend 2: Yeah, there's nothing on that slate, I wouldn't tap that if I got paid.
Friend 3: Dack, you need to get your rating inflation looked at, you're way too into Asians and I'm worried about you.

Examples of Rating Inflation topics and the average correlating race with each quality:

(x usually rating inflated by y)

Fat chicks by Mexicans

Big asses by Black people

White girls by Black people

White girls by White supremacist

White supremacist's wives by Black people

Asians by White and Black people

Big boobs by men as a general

Elderly by Mexicans

Nice teeth by Asians

Also, it is important to note that recent studies in worldwide supermarkets and 3rd wards have shown that Black women are not usually inflated by anyone.

Sorry Oprah, our bad.

Ninja Inflation

Hidden inflation, such as when a restauant serves smaller portions, instead of raising its prices. Since the reamains the same, it's not easily seen by the untrained eye; it's hidden like a Ninja. But the inflation is surely there!

Friend A: "Heyyyy, wait a minute...didn't this dinner entre used to always come with 3 pork chops? I've only been getting 2 now for a while...but at the same price as before..."

Friend B: "Yeah, man...that is called NINJA INFLATION!!!"

Close Friend Inflation

When one begins to add their friends on facebook to their "close friends" list. Soon, they will begin to receive more notifications than ever before. Close Friend Inflation appears to make someone more popular, when in reality they are just becoming privy to typically useless information.

Man, I thought people were starting to like my facebook but it was just close friend inflation.

Ovation inflation

Accolade Inflation

A type of inflation in a social group whereby more and more shallow, empty, and easy awards keep getting made and given out to members, and thus members of the group need to show a huge number of these awards to be considered average.

There is so much accolade inflation these days it's hard to tell apart those who are average from those who have accomplished something noteworthy.

The CVs of HS students applying to college these days has a 7 page section on 'awards and recognitions' due to the constant accolade inflation.

My 5 year old came home from school with 5 daily stars for her behavior over the past 3 days, in a case of flagrant kindergarten accolade inflation.
