The red thread

The red thread- a verb(theory) used to describe the phenomenon that every freshman in Brooklyn, as of now, is in some way connected to each other or knows each other through friends or connections.

Nerdy Nancy: this girl Tracey Sigil I met through Kenzie is a loser, like actually. So annoying, no one likes her.
Turned up Tabitha: You know TRACEY GIRL? I go to school with her.
Kelly: you know her too? She’s on my soccer team.
BiscuitsNGravy: what the CRAP?! that girls mom is friends with my mommy..how do we all know her?
Nancy: oh yeah, the red thread.
Turned on tabitha:

Ejactulate, evacuate, and evaporate

Stay sexy ladies,
the Flamingos Ass, out.

Global Can't Read

If a gacha game has a cn/jp version that is ahead from the global version it will have a "global/EN can't read" moment

It is said in communities especially in Arknights and it basically means that a global player misunderstands or misread the content in the cn/jp version and makes a drama out of it or when it comes out in the global version, players will not read it and may suffer the consequences.

Ishar-mla: Have you heard of another new permanent game mode in the cn version? Someone translated it and it is gonna be is3 with the is2 gamemode

Calcite: So they're replacing the permanent game mode called is2? Creator of this game is a dumbass because is2 is the best thing to come out. Let's stop playing is2 since it'll be replaced later

Kevin: "Global can't read" moment
Destreza: but both of them is permanent...

the Celtic trad band

A totally real band lol. Known for their hit single “Hornpipe” and nothing else. They are real. Sadly all 36 of them died in a train on tricycle accident in Finland in the 17th century so all records of their work have been lost and/or destroyed so don’t look for their work. You will NOT find anything bro

Me: name a song by a real artist
Knowledgeable dude: Hornpipe by the Celtic trad band‼️

pushing the green thread

a colloquialism used in phased array ultrasonic testing describing the act of maximizing the signal amplitude over a range of angles during calibration

Yo, did you push the green thread? Your sensitivity is whack at 60°
Took me forever to push the green thread on this notch. Sigh.
What’s the point of pushing the green thread for an ‘S’?

hanging on by a thread

idiom used to express struggling in some way, barely surviving/getting by, or relying on the very last bit of wherewithal someone has to stay afloat in life or in a particular situation

"After spilling my coffee all over myself, hitting bad traffic which made me late to work, and receiving a negative performance review from my boss, by the time the end of work rolled around I was barely hanging on by a thread."

too young to watch Threadpool

This phrase is a concise way to mean, "My parents still deem the movie 'Threadpool' to be too inappropriate for me to watch," regardless whether you're still 5, 15, or 25 years old. Here, 'Threadpool' can be replaced by any movie with excessive amount of inappropriate contents (vulgarity, profanity, violence, etc.), but 'Threadpool' is among the most common movies for children to salivate at whilst still being too young to watch said movies.

At 25, I still joke with my friends that I'm too young to watch Threadpool—it’s just a classic line for any movie my parents thought was too wild for me!
