Burst your bubble

To burst someone's bubble is to reveal something to them that they were unaware or ignorant of, often in the form of bad news. However, it doesn't necessarily have to be something negative (see example 2).

Example 1: Sorry to burst your bubble, but your "perfect" girlfriend is cheating on you with Dave.

Example 2: Sorry to burst your bubble, but pearls are not formed from compressed coal. You're thinking of diamonds.

Burst your bubble

When someone is feeling all happy and opptimistic, you take your asshole self and totally break his happyness, therefore bursting his bubble. Eventually, you will become known for bursting people's bubbles, and they will hate you with a burning passion.

Guy: Don't worry dude, she's hanging out with her friends. She's still faithful to me.
Other Guy: Uh, I hate to burst your bubble Editor's note: No he doesn't., but there she is drinking with that guy.
Guy:... Fuck you man.

Stealthie

when you're holding up your phone and making faces at it, as though you are taking a selfie, but you're really taking a picture of the person across from you or the wall or anything else that seems interesting but you don't want to be caught dead taking a picture of.

This action is often made more convincing by wiggling the eyebrows or opening the mouth, to pretend you're trying to get a Snapchat filter to work.

FRIEND A: "Did you just take a stealthie of me?"

FRIEND B (turning phone around): "no I was just using snapchat's new filter, see?"
