Check the hands

A phrase meant to indicate that the apparently female subject of a photo or video might in fact be male, with large hands being the tell. It was invented in the Something Awful subforum "Laissez Faire" in 2009. It has since spread to several other online communities, including Badgame Dot Com.

"Girl? Uh, check the hands, dude."

Serial Monogamist

Someone who jumps from one relationship immediately into another one.

Serial monogamists can not stand to be alone and often suffer from vast commitment and insecurity issues.

Because they jump into relationships immediately after the previous one has ended, serial monogamists typically don't take the time to reflect on their behavior or why their previous relationships failed; thus, they end up making the same relationship mistakes over and over again.

Person 1: Damn, Dustin already has a new girlfriend?! It's only been two weeks since he broke up with his fiance! I think he's a sociopath.

Person 2: No, he's a serial monogamist...
