Self Fulfilling Prophecy 

Positive or negative expectations about circumstances, events, or people that may affect a persons behavior toward them in a manner that he or she (unknowingly) creates situations in which those expectations are fulfilled.

In other words, causing something to happen by believing it will come true
____

Example 1:
An employer sees a new employee and automatically expects him to be disloyal. The employer then treats the employee in a way to elicit the very response he concluded.

Example 2:
Labeling someone a "criminal," and treating that person as such, may foster criminal behavior in the person who is subjected to the expectation, thus creating a self fulfilling prophecy

Self-Fulfilling Twat 

A twat who claims he's only behaving like a twat in defence of the fact that other people keep calling him a twat behind his back.

Similar to a self-fulfilling prophecy but more personal, and often used as a defense mechanism, usually by men to avoid ever having to engage with anyone emotionally, or say sorry.

Their phrase of choice should you ask them why they're behaving like a twat is of course: 'Are you calling me a twat then!?' and then centre all their twatness upon you as you obviously must be the source of why everyone thinks they're a twat, and are no longer inviting them to any more social events.
I can't be bothered to try and make sense of the man anymore, he just seems to be a self-fulfilling twat.

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.
