Gallybora 

Gallybora is a mythical creature who lives in Norway. The myth of this creature is that she sings in a group called Idiosyncratic. Gallybora has never been seen in outside light before, which is why some people believe she dosn't exist.

Gallybora can also mean something good and cool. But that something has to be very outlandish for it to be called Gallybora.
Story teller: The mountains over there is where Gallybora is rumoured to spend her evenings.

Child: Mummy I don't want to turn the light off, I'm scared Gallybora might get me.
Mother: Don't worry. Gallybora doesn't exist. She hasn't even been seen in the outside world before.

Dude: Hey man look at that tree over there, its totally Gallybora!!!

Cat: Have you seen the new Steven Speilberg film? You should because its really gallybora!

Mosquito: This blood has a really edgy taste to it. I can't really describe it. Its tastes a bit gallybora though.

Hamster: Look at that persons hair! I wonder how it does it? It's so gallybora I wish I could have hair like that.

gallbraith 

A gallbraith is a sharp pain in the gall-bladder experienced by somebody reading some of the work of J.K.Galbraith who suddenly realises that what he was saying a long time ago about economic bubbles is still achingly relevant today, thus raising profound questions about the ability of human beings to learn lessons from past experiences.
"Ouch! Brad, I just experienced a massive gallbraith when I realised that contemporary financial innovation involves a debt leveraged against more limited assets, just like it did in the past!"

"Gosh! Hermann, it just occurred to me that one of the problems in the rise of a bubble is that the people who see it coming are treated as imbeciles as a result of the Cassandra effect! What a massive gallbraith!"

Ludovic woke up on 1st October 2007 and had a full-force gallbraith when he realised that everybody was about to start blaming marginal things outside the market for the failures of the market itself.

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.
