Colleague-zoned

A contemporary phenomenon that occurs when Dating App conversation is saturated with career talk, becoming difficult to secure a date.

There are similar parallels to the ‘friend-zone’. Any attempt to escalate the match to a date is blocked by the girl saying “I feel that you are more like a colleague”.

Hey bro, did you see that hot girl Ranz I been speaking to on Bumble? We have heaps in common with work.

Sounds like Ranz has already colleague-zoned yo ass.

Colleague Zone

Similar to the Friend Zone, except in a platonic work environment .

That person you talk to in the office but have no aspirations to be friends with outside of work hours.

To clarify this is one step below the Friend Zone

In the office at closing time on a Friday

Fred: So what are you doing this weekend?
Jane: ah, you know just meeting up with my friends and doing other cool stuff with my friends.. so ya I will see you on Monday.. at work.

Jane has Colleague Zoned Fred

I mean I guess bro

a word of expression to when you give up on comprehending someone's words of ignorance, stupidity, absurdity or are too exhausted to formulate a proper response.

Commonly seen in TikTok comment sections in replies to lazy attempts at humor, overconfidentally incorrect statement, or an over-the-top comment or when someone completely misses the mark on something.

"actually... incorrect statement, hope this helps!"
"I mean I guess bro"

abandonware

n. software that is no longer sold or supported by the original publisher / developer, often found as free downloads on the internet because it cannot be obtained elsewhere. Not legal, but often seen as morally acceptable because the company that made it is no longer selling the title, nor releasing it as freeware, therefore abandonware is "keeping the game alive", so to speak.

Doom II is not abandonware because id still sells it, while The Incredible Machine is not sold, therefore is abandonware.

Foot prisons

Socks. Annoying, sweat-causing, non-barefoot enducing, everyday socks.

The first thing I do when I take off my shoes, is rip off the foot prisons I had to wear inside them. That's why I prefer flip flops, even in winter!
