Freshman Brain

A term that encompasses the deficit in emotional awareness often exhibited by college freshmen compared to most upperclassmen. Symptoms can include but are not limited to: crippling insecurities that require massive reassurance to quell; flaking repeatedly; early onset "what are we" talk; lovebombing; colossal mood swings. Prepare for a rollercoaster.

Exact numbers are unknown, but it is suspected at least 30 college credits (studio art not included) are required to mature beyond Freshman Brain.
Example 1:
"Yo man are you still talking to Anna?"

"Nah man.. I couldn't handle the Freshman Brain."

Example 2:
"Bro. Maddie wants me to tell her who I hook up with though she and I aren't exclusive."

"Yeah that's crazy. Freshman Brain."

brain drain

When an organization or community is doing poorly enough that its smartest people, seeing the writing on the wall, leave for better opportunities elsewhere. This is common in business and other organizations that perpetuate a common goal or mission and once purged it typically accelerates the demise of the organiztion.

For example: Facebook's poor stock performance since it's IPO and lack of favorable stock options for employees puts them at risk of brain drain. Many will likely head over to Google or Apple, but they'll be in trouble.
Mark Zuckerberg: Sheryl, can find me those repots on Zynga's...Hey?! Why are wearing a Google sweatshirt?!

Sheryl Sandberg: Sorry Mark. We had a good run, but your lack of focus on ad revenue and overvalued IPO has caused this drop in FB stock value with no end in sight. I and the others are leaving before the stock tanks.

Mark Z: The others? They're all leaving Facebook? You can't! We'll never survive this brain drain!

Sheryl: Yeah, sorry. You should've thought about that before going public.

Car brain

Derogatory term for vehicle drivers, whose cognitive functions have been impaired by the act of driving.

Long term dependency on their car has caused their brain to atrophy to such an extent that they barely recognize pedestrians as human. The car brain will speed in parking lots where they share right-of-way with pedestrians, will block the entirety of a crosswalk while waiting for the green light, overtake bikes without giving enough room, splash pedestrians with water by hitting puddles at full speed, et cetera
Look at that, some car brain parked in the bike lane. Sure would be a shame if someone keyed them.
