forknight 

I. One of the many examples of illiteracy of the character, Charlie Kelly, from It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia. Introduced while bantering with the lawyer during the episode "Paddy's Pub: Home of the Original Kitten Mittons", this educated pseudo-noun is the perfect interjection into any conversation where some period of time has passed/will have passed.

II. Specifically, a forknight is a period of time that the user defines that makes the plural usage of forknight redundant and thus, by it's very definition, perfectly acceptable in an illiterate sense.
I.

Charlie: "Now mind you that here-to-for document had dry ink on it for at least many forknights."
------------------
II. The period of time covered below is equivalent, dependent on the time in a forknight.

"The OJ Simpson murder trial lasted several forknights before a verdict was reached."

"The OJ Simpson murder trial lasted a forknight before a verdict was reached."

International taco fortnight 

International taco fortnight originated around 2012 in the Monterey Bay Area of California and is an annual festive event to celebrate tacos and Mexican cuisine in general, lasting one fortnight (or longer if desired). One is encouraged, but not required, to consume tacos on a daily basis for the duration of this event. Documenting your activities relating to this event on video or otherwise is encouraged, however frowned upon by some as "yet another image of food". The exact date of this event fluctuates and typically is announced a few weeks ahead of time.
I just ate three whole cheese tacos to celebrate international taco fortnight and now I feel sick.

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.”
