shit-capture

When a large enough crowd of lower quality people enter a space and start shitting it up until all the talented and / or experienced people leave from the stink, thus creating an unearned monopoly on the space for themselves. Proven a highly successful strategy to take over and destroy what remained of the West's modern intellectual, technological, and social landscapes.

I used to work in the AAA games industry until millennials came of age and shit-captured it. Now it's just midwits and diversity hires producing buggy, soulless, politically-correct shovelware.

Carbon Capture

A government that has been captured by the fossil fuels industry for example the UK

Tarquin - I hear the UK government is going to use carbon capture, so your shares in those North sea oil companies are going to go through the roof.
Rollo - Yes, it's going to be sick - are you going to stay in the place in Switzerland when floods start ?

Oh , know yeah I did see R L GRIMES but that was not her that was HIM from the LA but the thing that is FUNNY as SERENDIPITY FABRICATION CAPTURE made a splash by "hitting her ATITUDE towards the WORLD right on TARGET and because "SHE HAD A H0LE IN HER MATTRESS that ELON REEVE MUSK needed to keep from the world seeing as the following immediately comes out "Grimes Admits To Hacking, Blackmailing Indie Music Blog Hipster Runoff. People usually don't flippantly recount committing federal cybercrime as “my coolest hacker moment,” but that's what musician Claire Boucher, better known as Grimes, just did.Mar 24, 2022 and thus she is R L GRIMES too because 666 C0DE GRIMES tried fabricating when with ELON TEEVE MUSK they were living like PAUPERS and ANAL ALAN turns out to be an ASS because his ASS PEN happens to be wrong about meeting her but HIM instead , "as you might say , "HE ATE THE EATILY without being there by BEING INSTEAD at TAEILY BUTT happily "WHAT A M0VEMENT!!!!

Simp Capture

The psychological or practical state of expectation to be successful in convincing another person (usually seen as somehow inferior or exploitable) to have a task completed for you, usually by means of charm, coercion, baiting, promising a particular desired reciprocation, or to be able to exercise a particular privilege. It is rarely acknowledged and usually expected to not be seen as morally or ethically inappropriate or unacceptable, and may or may not cause one psychological distress depending on a real or expected outcome of success, the person’s own moral or ethical awareness, social normalization of the action of simp capture, or real or perceived perception of personal ineffectiveness in doing the desired action themselves.

Dude knows the ladies fall all over him and he expects to treat them however he wants or to get whatever he wants from them. He’s simp captured and doesn’t even know it!
