Retribute

To reply quickly with a sharp or blunt statement, often an uncomfortable truth or something offensive, that feels like a verbal punishment. Stronger than a retort, less slangy than a clap back.

P1: "Evertone here gives 100% effort"
P2: "Except you, who leaves early every Friday." They retributed.

Retrodream

A Retrodream is when chronically online people glaze retro styles to the point of no return.

This is beyond strange. Someone could get it to maybe parody stuff, but by making it a style, these chronically online crackheads want the tech your grandmaw grew up with, but seem to mock at us as people, it’s like a revisionist Retrodream.

[Future Retro]

An English style that is the new New Rave but not as lame. It's basicaly bright colours and lots of plastic acessories, especialy bracelets, lego necklaces and fake Ray Ban sunglasses.
Why? It's fun.

''Oo, Jamiee, those bracelets from Clare's
Accessories?''
''Why yes, they are. Very Future Retro I thought''

Audio retreat

To take a break from the fast pace of modern life by listening to some chill-out and relaxing music.

"The first thing I do when I get in after a bitch of a day, is take an audio retreat."

While wearing headphones at your desk with your feet up and your hands behind your head try placing this sign on your desk:
"Please come back at a later time. I'm on an audio retreat."
