The line of dust on the shoulder of a shirt that forms when it is left on a hanger for too long.

Gigi was almost late because she had to wash her shirt since it had some major hanger burn.

word burning

Similar to "Book Burning", it is when a word is no longer liked by a group of people and they decide it should no longer be used. Often used when a word is considered "negative" even though it is accurately used by its definition. The intention and the way a person is using it may be what is not liked but it is the word that is cancelled.

"Retarded" means less advanced in mental, physical, or social development than is usual for one's age. But some people use it as a derogatory term so we are no longer allowed to use the words "Retard" or "Retarded". Those words have been burnt. We are practicing "word burning".

learning and burning

Learning course material for long enough to pass the exam, and then forgetting it all.

Betsy: I took that class.
AJ: Well then you can go help them with their homework then.
Betsy: Are you kidding? That was like 2 years ago! I'm an expert at learning and burning...
