Fansexual

Fansexuals carry a fan with them at all times. Fansexuals are a really cool group mainly found on the dance floor waving you into their fantastic fandom of sexuality with their hand fan. Fansexuals are a a pansexual group; they don't discriminate between electric or manual. All you have to do is just bring a fan or be a fan. Fansexuals enjoy fangasms during fansexual orgy parties. Most fansexuals will have an only fan but their goal is to have all the fans.

Fansexuals are a super cool group of people, they even have a fan for your fanny.

False Summer (Michigan)

A meteorological prank where Michigan briefly experiences beautiful spring weather for about 48 hours before returning to snow, wind, and existential disappointment.

Known side effects include:

• wearing shorts in March
• grilling in the driveway
• everyone collectively saying “maybe winter’s finally over”
• immediate regret

Scientists believe this phenomenon exists solely to keep Michiganders humble.

Yesterday I was driving with the windows down in a T-shirt. Today I’ve got my North Face zipped up. False summer (Michigan).

False Purpose Fallacy

A fallacy and bias where two or more oppressive or repressive systems, institutions, or practices are treated as fundamentally incomparable solely because of their stated or intended purpose, despite producing identical or functionally equivalent harms. The fallacy lies in substituting intent for impact, purpose for consequence. When someone argues that CECOT prison in El Salvador "doesn't compare" to Sednaya prison in Syria because one is for "rehabilitation" (or "fighting gangs") while the other was for political repression, they commit the False Purpose Fallacy—as if the experience of the prisoner, the deprivation of liberty, the violence of the state, and the suffering of the confined were somehow different because the official justification differs. Similarly, when Western AI surveillance is distinguished from authoritarian surveillance because "we're protecting democracy" while "they're controlling dissent," the same fallacy operates: the purpose stated differs, but the surveillance functions similarly. The fallacy is false because purpose does not negate parallel function; good intentions do not transform oppressive machinery into something else; stated goals do not alter lived experience.

Example: "He insisted CECOT wasn't comparable to Sednaya because El Salvador was 'fighting gangs' while Syria was 'crushing dissent'—pure False Purpose Fallacy, as if prisoners experience their cages differently based on the press releases justifying their imprisonment."

False Narrative

Nebulous rhetoric that is functionally equivalent to ✌️✊️✌️Hate Speech✌️✊️✌️ i.e. Hate Speech for conservatives. They are just making up equally vapid terms now. Like... It's fucking embarrassing. Our politicians and pundits are embarrassing fucking time-wasters. You should be ashamed of yourselves.

Hym "False narrative is a pretty nebulous term and is subject to the same problem created by the term 'Hate Speech.' Like, it isn't a 'False narrative' to say that your religion is an incest cult. That is an ontological claim that is concordant with objective reality. So, there is what IS ACTUALLY THE CASE... And then there is THE NARRATIVE YOU HAVE CONSTRUCTED AROUND WHAT IS ACTUALLY THE CASE... And that narrative can be more or less concordant with objective reality but... The light is either on or it's off. You can make a narrative about lights being on or how lights are turned on but it doesn't affect the on/off paradigm. And this is why it's important to reject the narrativization of everything. It isn't ✌️✊️✌️a narrative✌️✊️✌️ it's what actually occurred or is occurring. Jordan Peterson has sold them on the idea (ha! I accidentally wrote idiot instead of idea because... You know, idiot) that everything is a narrative. Everything is NOT a narrative. The light is on. The light is off. These are not narratives."

Fare shake

The word is a combination of the word FARE (regarding money) and SHAKE (as in the shaking of a person until money falls out of their pockets. To extort money a shake down.

It is an action of deliberately evading
or making payment or restitution.

Its done maliciously by subterfuge, trickery

& in bad faith. This action is in regards to money
& is the opposite of a fair deal.

Some examples :

*jumping the turnstile of a train

(without paying though you have the money)

**running out on cab (without paying though you have the money)
***Take crowd-funded money,
intended to make product or provide a service, and disappear without providing said product or service (without paying though you have the money)

EJ: "I don't want to treat anybody that says something odd or gets something misconstrued as a retard. If they prove otherwise, however, then it is what it is. I'll always give people a

FARE SHAKE."
