Minced regression

Happens mainly when you have just been told off/dissed/burned. This is a failed attempt to put some ice on that burn, or to insult them back. When you make a horrible come back that nobody gets or is just plain weak, making you look like even more of a fool.

Max: "We're out of butter"
Erik: "That's okay we can just use your girlfriends face"

Erik: "That was stupid"
(Erik walks away)
Micah: "What was that Max?"
Max: "I don't know dude minced regression"

recession porn

refers to a new phenomenon dealing with bad economic news being like crack. And a sick sense of doomsday thrill certain people getting from reading and following such news.

The appeal to such sensational content is somewhat "being better prepared to be the last man standing during the end of times".

Jack is pretty well off considering harsh macroeconomic conditions in the country. However, he seems to have developed an obsession with recession porn.
