A homoris and affectionate term for someone who is both fat and an Adonis. An affectionate term used to describe someone who physically not perfect, but still posses charm, confidence and appeal.

Even though he is not as fit as he used to be, he calls himself a fadonis as he knows he still has that irresistible charm.

Famine Rationalization

The explanation of mass starvation as an unavoidable act of nature ("drought"), a consequence of overpopulation, or the fault of corrupt local governments, thereby absolving the global economic systems, speculation, and colonial legacies that create vulnerable food systems and dictate distribution.

Example: A news report describing a famine as a "tragic natural disaster" caused by failed rains, while omitting how international debt regimes forced the country to shift from subsistence farming to cash crops for export, destroying local food sovereignty. This famine rationalization depoliticizes starvation.

Fanongame

A fangame that has been so thoroughly shaped by the collective fan interpretations, inside jokes, and widely-accepted headcanons (the "fanon") of its source material that it becomes the definitive version of that universe for its players. It's a game where the developers clearly read the same fan forums as the players, incorporating popular theories and meme-worthy character traits into the actual gameplay. It blurs the line between creator and consumer so thoroughly that no one can remember if a particular character quirk was from the original show or from that one viral fancomic.

Example: "In the official anime, the villain was just generically evil, but in this fanongame, they've leaned into the fanon interpretation that he's actually just a tired single dad trying to pay for his kid's magic school tuition. Now he's the most popular character."

Fanongaming

The broader cultural phenomenon where the line between canon (official content) and fanon (fan-created lore) becomes so blurred in gaming spaces that the two become indistinguishable. It's the process by which a player's headcanon, shared and agreed upon by thousands of others online, eventually seeps into the collective consciousness to the point where it feels more real than the actual game's story. When a new player joins a fandom and is surprised to learn that a beloved character trait or relationship was never actually in the game, but was invented by fans, they are experiencing the effects of fanongaming.

Example: "The new player was shocked to discover that the deep, tragic backstory for the mute protagonist wasn't actually in the game files. It was a decade-old fan theory that had become so widespread through fanongaming that the developers had eventually made it official in the sequel."
