FYS (Fall Yellowjacket Syndrome) 

FYS or Fall Yellowjacket Syndrome is a pattern of behavior associated with an identity crisis in older single men, who become bitter, hyper competitive, misogynistic, and narcissistic trying to assert their worth to others when faced with the realization that they will die alone.

Just like a yellowjacket wasp is more likely to become aggressive and sting in the fall, the male with FYS is prone to lash out, engage in maladaptive coping strategies such a heavy drinking/ drugging, take a renewed interest in youthful hobbies to prove he's "still got it", and repeatedly act absolutely nasty towards younger / more fulfilled people than himself whom he is envious of.
Erik has FYS (Fall Yellowjacket Syndrome). Erik couldn't congratulate Daniel on his job promotion without including several backhanded compliments and saying how much more he can lift than Daniel.

Word of the Day on October 28, 2026
A lighthearted reaction upon receiving disappointing news of some sort. Usually something that isn't a particularly a big deal, esp. when it primarily affects someone else - sort of a mild schadenfreude. Sometimes doubled or tripled, and possibly said in a sing-songy voice for added comedic effect to imitate a muted trumpet, which is how the meme originated.
