You will eat the bugs
A phrase used to reference or mock the increasing obsession of politicians and activists generally associated with the World Economic Forum to replace meat-eating and cattle farming with "insect protein" from cockroaches, crickets, and other disgusting land-bugs.
Mostly used in 4chan as well as in conservative or anti-New World Order circles, with several conspiracy theories associated as to WHY they would want everyone to eat bugs instead of cows.
Some of those theories include...
- "Non-sea bugs are full of chitin in their exoskeleton, which unlike sea-bugs, cannot be removed or cooked away. Chitin is indigestible to human bodies and causes several illnesses including forms of cancer if overconsumed, therefore the elite want their human cattle to eat bugs to make them weak, dull, mentally deficient and sick."
- "Humilliation ritual from the Jews in power to make non-Jews eat disgusting cockroaches while Jews continue to enjoy beef because bugs aren't Kosher and therefore Jews would be the only ones exempted from eating bugs. Making them eat bugs would be anti-semitic."
- "It's a way of breaking the people's will to make them submit to absolutely anything the elite wants, no matter how disgusting or otherwise unacceptable."

eat the bugs
To mindlessly comply and obey government policies and suggestions (particularly regarding ecology) without critically thinking first.
It originates from the phrase 'You will eat the bugs' which is used in memes and shitposts to make fun of politicians and ecologists who suggest ridiculous things like eating insects instead of meat to save the planet. Practicing this a prime example of 'eating the bugs'.
It is important to note that complying with certain measures such as recycling or wearing masks during pandemics are not 'eating the bugs'. Those policies, unlike eating bugs, are actually helpful and considerate.
People who 'eat the bugs' often don't realise (or don't care) that it limits their personal liberty. Such mindless compliance is perfect undergrowth for totalitarian regimes when widespread.

Pee Calculus
When you have to pee in a movie but don’t want to miss anything, and must do the following mental equation: will the amount I have to pee cause enough discomfort to diminish my attention capacity for the remainder of the movie to an extent which is greater than the amount of the movie I would miss by making a mad dash to the restroom.
