A term used by assholes on the internet who try to sound smarter then they really are, without knowing what it actually means

Post-VR Dissonance is a feeling users that are new to Virtual Reality devices often experience after using the console. Some feelings include feeling like you're remotely controlling yourself, a need to touch something to feel grounded, and possibly symptoms of Motion Sickness. After a few days the dissonance disappears and using VR and regular life become second nature. It is recommended to not use VR applications that use Joystick movement, high intensity games, or very long experiences in VR when one is new to the platform, as these can possibly worsen the effects of Post-VR Dissonance.
Clyde played a high intensity VR game the first day he used his headset, and felt Post-VR Dissonance because of it.

Dissonance (music) is the “disagreement” or “clash” between two notes. For example F# and G would have dissonance and this would cause a annoying or “out of tune” sound that isn't very pleasant to hear. But it can be used to add frustration to a piece of music and when used right, it can sound cool.
Béla Bartók used dissonance in his piece String Quartet No.4 especially the 5th movement! It sounded super cool!

When something is loved by one generation and hated by another. It's usually a case of something being hated by boomers and loved by either millennials or zoomers.
"Oh, I love Rise of the TMNT! Donny is best Turtle! uwu"
"NO YOU IDIOT! THEY RUINED THE TURTLES WITH THAT SHOW. The 80s Cartoon and live action film are where it's at!"
"Ok boomer. Looks like we have a case of generational dissonance."

Metanarrative Dissonance is an incongruence between the narrative of a game (the story) and the outside parts unrelated to the story nor the game itself (real life related features).
+ Why are the illustrations made by this character so different to each other? I thought they had a unique style.
- Must've been made by different ppl irl. Metanarrative Dissonance sucks.
