drowner

A person who cannot or will not take care of themselves, often due to addiction or derangement, and who in desperation pulls anyone who tries to help them down alongside them, the way a drowning person pulls their would-be rescuer under the water.

Keep your distance from that guy. He's a drowner.

drone metal

The incorrect term for the under-appreciated genre known as Drone Doom. Quite probably some of the most atmospheric music in metal today, it features minimalistic riffs and sounds to paint a picture in your mind. The lyrics deal with abstract concepts, but usually are melancholic as a whole.

The correct term for drone metal is "drone doom," as our "Deathfuckingmetal" dumbass doesn't seem to know.

Download any Sunn O))) song, it'll make your skin crawl. In the best way possible.

Drone Parenting

The act of parenting in a manner in which you are so far up your own kid's ass that you lose your identity, or ability to function in a reasonable, rational and otherwise non-destructive way.

drone

drone(n): A drone is someone who follows an ideology or some other form of idealization blindlessly and uncritically.

The nouns original meaning is used in context with "social" insects, which are ordered into a hive structure. In an insect hive, drones are the workers - the ones gathering food, building the hive - in short: maintaining the hive, controlled by the queen, if not by some common instinctual fellowship and hierarchal order.

You're all a bunch of music industry drones.

Where is that drone-brother of yours? Still hanging around the arcade?
