Camera Whoring

People who post a crap load of images of themselves online and say that they're ugly, so that they're friends can tell them otherwise. Most of these camera whores consist of overly concerned teenage girls who shamelessly spam edited pictures of themselves on several different social networking sites, most commonly Facebook. These girls practically live off of the responses they get from comments, always thriving on comments such as "NO, NO YOU'RE NOT UGLY DON'T SAY THAT" or "girl, u better not say ur ugly, ur gorgeousssss. :) "

Differentiating a picture that was created by a Camera whore:

- Taken in front of a mirror with a cellphone or camera in hand.

- Taken from weird angles.

- Are edited by usage of color, captions, stickers, etc.

- Some girls duck face or peace sign.

- Contained in an album where thousands of other pictures of themselves doing the same thing, in the same location are found.

- (for guys) Usually stand showing off their muscles that are somewhat nonexistent unless they're flexing.

It's self explanatory, yes. I mean, if you think you're ugly, then you shouldn't be posting a bunch of pictures of yourself, just like a camwhore.
Camera whoring-girl: *taking pictures of myself, duck sign, peace sign, everything*

Texas is categorized as a swing state in presidential elections, but has voted for Republicans more times than for Democrats in recent history. As such, as demographics change political alignments, some Democrats believe that Texas will vote blue, or Democratic, due to their Hispanic and African American voters, who often align themselves with the Democratic Party's liberal wing.

Blexas has been cited as possible in the upcoming decades, but only if Democrats continue to win the Hispanic vote in bigger margins.
Democrat 1: What is your prediction for the 2024 presidential election?
Democrat 2: Well uh, Blexas!
Democrat 1: You've been saying that since 2008 though.

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.
