Maria Elena

This is an ancient name. Derived from a culture of very short women who were incredibly skinny. They typically drank large amounts of wine and smoked incredible amounts of tobacco. They were known mostly for the size of their feet. Described as "canoe feet," they were seen in ancient cave carvings as having feet large enough to walk on water. The culture could be found around the area now known as Mar del Plata, Argentina. Due to the whiteness of their skin, they are also described as "Ghost women." Obsessed with stones, they were usually found sitting on flat labradorites which cause the flatness of their butts. Despite these shortcomings, they were also known as being very sweet to their friends, no matter what their friends did.

Wow, that movie was intense, I almost cried like a Maria Elena.

Elevator Scum

An utterly detestable human being. Compared to the scum, garbage and other horrendous substances only found at the bottom of an elevator shaft.

Arguably used in the Dot-Com era to refer to backstabbing partners, cheating bf/gf and the sort.

"You are below scum, you're elevator scum!"

Elevator Spooning

When you are standing in an elevator and people decide it is a good idea to get as close as humanly possible instead of using the open space.

Man that old guy was really close to you, its like he wanted to start elevator spooning.

elevated horror

A subgenre of "respectable" horror movies which began in the late 2010s. They typically carry a social or moral message and are gloomy, gory, pretentious, and aimed at an audience more interested in queer/feminist subtext than scares and fun.

Expect boilerplate Tumblr politics, graphic violence but no female nudity, and laudatory reviews describing them as "slow burns", "giallo homages", or "bonkers".

Examples: Get Out, Us, The Babadook, Hereditary, Midsommar, It Comes At Night, Suspiria 2018, Candyman 2021, The Lighthouse, The Haunting of Bly Manor, Saint Maud, Possessor, Last Night in Soho, Titane, Midnight Mass, ect.

Let's go see the new elevated horror movie by Ari Aster, everyone on Letterboxd says it's a totally bonkers slow burn!
