Anatolian Corkscrew 

A sexual act in which the passive partner sits on the blades of a modified ceiling fan and the active partner penetrates her from below. If done properly and with sufficient lubrication, this arrangement should cause mutual delight as the gentle rotation of the ceiling fan causes her to "corkscrew" in place on his phallus.

The Anatolian Corkscrew was invented by Sultan Abdülmecid I of the Ottoman Empire, and first actuated in 1852, in the city of İzmit. Of course, the Sultan did not use a ceiling fan, because ceiling fans were not yet known to the Ottomans at that time. Instead, he had his carpenters build a bespoke spinner from imported larch wood. There has been some speculation as to whom His Majesty first boinked on the contraption, but most historians agree that it was not his then most recent (and, in fact, twentieth) wife, Serfiraz Hanımefendi. Her preferences tended towards the vanilla.
Bill impressed Alice by assembling a bespoke ceiling fan with five polished larchwood blades and installing it in their bedroom. That night, Alice told Bill she wanted to try the Anatolian corkscrew. When comprehension dawned on him, Bill went promptly to the hardware store, picked up the supplies he needed, and set to work lowering the fan.

Apatovianism 

Apatovianism is a recent counter-cultural movement that invokes the seeming spirit of elevating cinematic discourse with recognized films of artistic merit in order to pervert the experience for new viewers, and the overall cinematic legacy of the works in society, by discussing them in prosaic and brain-numbingly subversive analysis.

The ultimate goal being that every last film (either new or old) regarded as progressive or "different" is ruined before the eyes of newcomers that have not had the viewing experience before reading an analysis by an Apatovianist agent. The Apatovianists believe first-impressions are key in impregnating a psychological deterrent.

This is all done so that the market-fare cinema is that much more appealing to the mass public and firmly fortified. And the films of artistic merit...that much more compromised and deadened by Apatovianists.

Judd Apatow is the fountainhead symbol of this movement based purely on a pop-cultural standing as being a notable director among market-fare cinema.
The most hardcore example of Apatovianism-in-action consists of Internet forum posts that discuss films in a manner that gives away an aesthetic verdict on what the film represents or definitive qualities it stands for as interpreted by that person, especially in a finalizing tone.

Apatovianist 

one who prescribes to the tenets of apatovianism, a modern aesthetic movement that exists solely to alienate people and make fun of any person, idea or thing that does not coincide with the believer's accepted set of what is intelligent or worth a damn.

noun; a dumb stupid.

Word of the Day on November 3, 2026
Brought to public attention by Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein in the book on the fall of Richard Nixon, All The President’s Men, ratfucker was Nixon’s term for a political operative who sows chaos among opponents; an agent provocateur. It is thought to have originated among campus political rivalries at USC, and seems to have some usage in the US military.
Along with Nixon’s other ratfuckers, Roger Stone caused fights at otherwise peaceful Democratic Party protests to generate a false narrative that the Democrats were violent and dangerous.
