Neanderthal Kisses

Rubbing your eyebrows together while grunting.
She's cute and all, but then she gave me neanderthal kisses.

Neanderthal Supremacist

An ideology that views Neanderthals as supreme to homo sapiens. A view so niche that it could only be held by fat, sperging self-proclaimed 'cavemen' who've failed in every aspect of life to the point of coping by calling themselves Neanderthal supremacist.
Hey, David, see that fat, smelly idiot over there? What's the deal with him
Oh, Mike, he's just a Neanderthal Supremacist

Neanderthal

unrefined, primitive-mannered, aloof techbros, usually seen walking in herds or packs in your organisation. (A.k.a neo's, like the matrix!)

Neanderthalism

Pronunciation:
/ˈni .æn.dər.ˌθæl.ɪ.zəm/
(NEE-an-der-THAL-izm)

Definition:
1. The state or practice of tapping into raw, instinct-driven energy; expressing oneself in a primal, unrefined, untamed way.
2. Creativity, emotion, or behavior stripped of social rules, logic, or polish; letting pure bodily expression dominate thought or action.
3. A deliberate embrace of ancient, almost pre-human intensity in art, movement, sound, or life—an uncaged channeling of primal forces.

Etymology:
Derived from Neanderthal, the extinct human species known for their raw physicality and survival instincts, with the suffix -ism indicating a practice or philosophy. The word captures the idea of consciously accessing primal, unrefined human instincts as a method of expression or creation.

Why it’s important:
Modern life often dulls instinct and suppresses raw energy in favor of civility and polish. Neanderthalism fills the gap between mundane behavior and unfiltered, primal authenticity—it’s the tool for creators, performers, and thinkers who want to harness pure, bodily, instinctive power.
“The vocalist abandoned all syntax, letting their inner neanderthalism roar through the speakers.”

“Some days, I just need to embrace neanderthalism and smash through the rules holding me back.”
