A state of being demonstrably incorrect while simultaneously maintaining an unshakeable belief in one's own correctness. Characterized by inflexible argumentation, self-absorbed certainty, denial of error, emotional escalation, and self-directed gaslighting. The Han-er will often contort facts, dismiss evidence, and engage in emotional outbursts to defend their position, creating a reality resistant to external correction.
Observing Han-ing in action:
Imagine a vibrant, almost violent, clash of conflicting realities. The "Han-er," eyes blazing, passionately defends a position demonstrably false, their voice rising in volume as evidence mounts against them. They weave a tapestry of half-truths, misinterpretations, and outright fabrications, all while maintaining a veneer of absolute certainty. The scene is a chaotic ballet of misplaced confidence and emotional turmoil. The experience is both unsettling and strangely compelling, a stark reminder of the power of self-deception.
Conversation Example:
Han-er: You should always carry Limited Invulnerability Potions on you in dungeons.
Person 1: I only carry LIPs with me during raid. You don't need them in dungeons, it's a waste of gold.
Han-er: IT'S NOT A WASTE OF GOLD! THEY ARE ALWAYS NEEDED! DUNGEON! RAID! IT DOESN'T MATTER!
Person 1: Bro, stop Han-ing me!

if you ever get to meet a Karl Hans, make sure you look under his bed. Beside his secrets, you may find multiple socks.
