Phoenix

A person who is always late or never shows up has black hair and for some reason likes basketball. They are not that good of a friend and they always blame everything on you.

academic phoenix

An academic phoenix is a person who will crash and burn their grades for the current semester, with the hope of doing better in the next. "Pulling an academic phoenix" is risky, and is widely regarded as "a bad fucking move" as it can easily destroy your chances of getting scholarships if done wrong.

To be an academic phoenix, you have to be able to pull your grades back from the depths of hell. Otherwise, you'd just be a failure.

"Dude, just stop being lazy and do your damn project."

phoenix story

A “phoenix” story (in the context of online creators/YouTubers/influencers) is when someone gets completely burned to the ground publicly — massive controversy, cancellation, doxxing, harassment, loss of all platforms and income — and then, after disappearing for a while, quietly rebuilds a new career (often under a new name/brand) and ends up happier, healthier, and frequently more successful than before.
It’s called a phoenix story because, like the mythical bird that dies in flames and rises from its own ashes, the person has to let their old online identity “die” completely, then rebirth themselves from whatever is left.
Some well-known (or semi-known) examples of a phoenix story:
• Creators who were huge in the 2010–2015 era, got accused of something (true or false), lost everything, deleted all socials, and then years later came back as a totally different channel/niche and now have bigger audiences who have no idea about the old drama.
• People who used to be in drama-heavy circles (Skeptic YouTube, commentary community, etc.), got dog-piled, vanished, and resurfaced doing chill gaming, cooking, or educational content with a fraction of the old audience size but 10× the peace of mind and actual money.
• A few have even gone quasi-anonymous (avatar + voice changer at first) and built seven-figure businesses because they no longer have the baggage of their old name.
The key elements that make it a true phoenix (rather than just “they came back”) are usually:
1. They never really “clear their name” in the old space; the old controversy is still out there on Kiwi Farms or old Reddit threads.
2. The new audience is almost entirely unaware of the past (or doesn’t care).
3. The creator themselves says some version of “Getting canceled was the best thing that ever happened to me” because it forced them to escape a toxic ecosystem and build something sustainable.
