Onion-take

Where a reader absentmindedly scrolls through their social media or news feed and encounters an article too strange or too sad to be real. The reader then reflexively reverses scroll direction to verify if the article is a piece of satire or authentic news.

Named for a portmanteau of Onion, a satirical news outlet, and the double take.

Alex was prompted to Onion-take while scrolling Facebook, and found themselves horrified to learn that the article about competitive-eater Kobayashi being beaten by Chris Christie was posted by BBC News and not The Onion.

Taking the Tiny

Taking the tiny is when, during a smoke session with your homies, you're a considerably baked but would like to a tad bit more high. Then you approach the bong/bowl and taking a tiny hit that would not get you high when you're sober but would get you slightly more high when you are already high. Thus improving your trip very slightly but a very enjoyable amount

Fraternity brother Edafelius enjoyed his high, however he wanted to enjoyed it more so he decided he would be taking the tiny and his night was the best night of his life.
