Capital Ex 

That one ex you always think of first when someone says "your Ex". No matter how many ex-girlfriends or boyfriends you have, there is always going to be one who stands out in your memory, one who you always think about unbidden. Normally this is the ex who had the most serious relationship with you. The phrase "capital Ex" is used to differentiate.

The "E" is capitalized.
Rob: "Hey man, I ran into your ex today. Turns out she's lesbian now."
Jon: "Shelly?"
Rob: "No man, Jenny. Why do you always think I mean Shelly?"
Jon: "I don't know. I guess she's just my capital Ex."

No matter how many exes you have, there's always that one Ex.

Entertainment Capital of the World 

This is a nickname that can be applied to any city with a wide array and variety of entertainment options. Personally, I don't think this term should be applied to Las Vegas, because they have excessive amounts of nightclubs, bars, and casinos with all other entertainment options being sparse to almost non-existent. If that was the entertainment capital of the world, I shudder to think how boring the rest of the world is(sarcasm). They also need culture, historical significance, things for the under-21 crowd, museums, street performers, distinct neighborhoods and villages, local scene, etc...in order to deserve that title. I think it's more appropriate that this title be applied to cities like: Los Angeles, Miami, New York, anywhere in Mexico, Amsterdam, and a few other cities I can't think of right now.
Las Vegas dosen't deserve the title of "The Entertainment Capital of the World" as it's too limited when it comes to entertainment options.

Excessive amounts of bars, clubs, and casinos dosen't make you an example of that kind of city.

Amsterdam is way closer to being "The Entertainment Capital of the World" then Vegas is.

Capital: A Critique of Political Economy 

A book written by Karl Marx and published in 1867 that deals with the development of capitalism and its problems. It is generally highly admired for its foresight of how capitalism would eventually develop over time.

Note that Capital: A Critique of Political Economy is purely criticizing the status quo, predicting its development and pinpointing its problems, while the Manifesto of the Communist Party (or simply Communist Manifesto) offers possible solutions to these problems.
'Hey, I just read Capital: A Critique of Political Economy by Karl Marx. And I now believe that the only way to create a fair society is by overthrowing the bourgeoisie.'

fache-couture 

French slang, which translated, means "bull's fashion" but basically equates to "hyper trendy" or overly trendy. Used when a person wishes to express distaste at the latest fashion trend/fad, because it seems that everyone has a certain item of clothing or is wearing it. This term is most frequently heard in Paris but is slowly spreading to other parts of France.

Word of the Day on October 17, 2026
A slang term for GLP-1 medications(like Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, etc.), usually referring to their appetite-killing, weight-loss, or “I forgot to eat” effects rather than the medical details.

Usage:
* Often casual, ironic, or meme-y
* Can imply effortless weight loss, suppressed hunger, or being “powered by pharmaceuticals”

Notes:
Not a brand name—just shorthand for the whole GLP-1 wave. Frequently shows up in online jokes, gym talk, and group chats where people pretend they’re *totally* doing it naturally.
“I’m not dieting, I’m just on that glippy.”
“Ever since the glippy hit, food feels optional.”
“That summer body? Yeah, glippy assisted.”
