God Promise

Words used alongside a promise to do something - breaking such a promise would draw the wrath of the whole pantheon of 2000 gods from all religions down on you.

Hey mate, can you take out the garbage on your way out?

I'm very sorry mate, I need to get to the Doctor in 10 minutes, but I'll definitely take it out the next 3 times, God Promise.

Maybe Promise

The type of promise that comes from politicians or anybody on the the internet. Its a promise that has about a 50/50 chance of becoming true, usually when the promiser either will only complete their promise if they feel like it later, or when they are secretly hoping that the person/people they are promising will forget about the promise. Maybe Promises most commonly come from YouTubers, Redditors, or people named Casey. The chances of them completing the promise usually increase dramatically once the person/people they promised have the balls to pressure them, after they come to the realization that they are experiencing a Maybe Promise.

Pičkasti pritisak

Pičkasti pritisak (literally "pussy pressure") is Croatian term you use when you are surrounded by pussies (cowards) hence you are pressured to make pussy like choices.

His friends ordered a small Heineken instead of a big one so he ordered it as well. He was clearly under pičkasti pritisak.

Scottish promise

An ancient custom of serving guests an offering of food with a portion removed.

The custom served dual purposes. Symbolically, it was meant to indicate that nothing would be offered which was not equal to the servers own.
Practically, it allowed for a taste test to gauge the quality of the ingredients and preparation.

Our host explained that the pie was missing a piece to show that the house tested the pie to confirm it was good enough for you, which is the Scottish promise.

Gamer Promise

An unbreakable promise that has the equivalency of dedication and effort as a gamer that has 1 hp in a boss fight

I wasn't expecting him to keep his promise, until he gave me a gamer promise.

Welsch promise

Old Welsch custom of giving a gift of food with one serving missing.
The “Promise” of the gesture was that this gift would not be given if it were not at least good enough for the person giving the gift. The missing serving was presumed to be used to confirm the quality of the item and evaluate possible improvements.
The custom is thought to have originated in the mid-seventeenth century.

We did not understand why our Thanksgiving turkey only had one wing until my grandfather explained the custom of the Welsch promise, and it’s purpose of honoring his guests.

Unwilling promises

The people pleaser who doesn't want to disapoint someone so they make a promise but add excuses to get out.

"I promise we'll do that later but I am busy right now." "You don't have to make unwilling promises, just say no."
