Gasterism

When a singular explanation is being used to answer a wide range of questions for the primary reason that said explanation is enough vague, general or "above logic" to fit in almost every situation and for any purpose.

With the use of Gasterism one can "solve" a difficult problem by employing a solution that in itself still requires a deeper explanation, effectively removing their responsibility of giving real concrete answers.

Although Gasterism gets criticized for laziness, avoidance and uncreativeness, it is easily missable due to its way of presenting a cause that at first glance explains everything with no issues.

Guy 1: "Hey dude, how do birds fly?"
Guy 2: "Idk, physics"

Guy 1: "Well, how was the sun formed?"

Guy 2: "Idk, physics"
(Gasterism in action)

Guy 1: "Wait, if the fire spell is powerful enough to completely burn all those henchmen, then why did it only slightly hurt the main villain?"
Guy 2: "It's magic, don't think about it too much"
(Magic = Gasterism)

Guy 1: "Last night I heard a sound from the chicken. When I went to check, apparently one of the dishes fell out of the dishwasher for no reason!"
Guy 2: "Must've been a ghost"
Guy 1: "Yeah, there is no other explanation"
(Gasterism: Easy to use, hard to explain)

Neo-Gastonism

An inherently right wing three point political ideology based on the tenants practiced by Gaston in The Beauty and the Beast.
1) Women Can’t Read
2) We eat a lot of eggs
3) We beat the shit out of furries

Low IQ Retard: Are you seriously suggesting that women can’t read, sexist??!!

Based High IQ Gastonist: Yes, because it’s so true. Neo-Gastonism is the future.

Asterism

Any one of a number of heinously outdated colloquialisms; their rhetorical power lies in their deplorable ability to frustrate or incite hilarity. Upon utterance, a speaker will likely generate the following behavioral, cerebral, or emotional responses:
1) Externalized disgust (behavioral)
2) Debilitating brain aneurisms (cerebral)
3) Crushing submission (emotional)
They should be avoided in day-to-day vernacular, and hopefully eventually removed from English nomenclature.

Various Asterisms:
Alas (conjunction)
Up a crick (prepositional phrase)
Circle the wagons (verb)
Po-dunk (adjective)
MMMMMkay (declarative)
Cotton-picking (adjective {racial})
By golly (declarative)
Gosh darn (defamatory)
Rats (declarative)
Hippity-hoppity (crack whore)
Gung-ho (adjective)
The list goes on...

Gamerism

Gamerism is a range of political movements, ideologies, and social movements that share a common goal: to define, establish, and achieve political, economic, personal, and social equality for gamers.

The underlying philosophy of gamerism narrates the harsh realities of living in a society that oppresses and subjugates gamers. The gamerism campaigns focus on eleminating the same. Often times it becomes necessary for people to hide the fact that they are gamers. Some of the campaigns focus on making the society more acceptable and tolerant towards gamers.

Some schools of gamerism include the narrative of the misguided society. They describe how the society enforces roles for the people living in it and views individuals in these rigid roles. It is the aim of the gamerism campaigns to show that one doesn't have to be a certain type of person to be a gamer. All people can be gamers and all gamers can have multiple roles in role playing games.
It's interpretation of historical development takes a view of social transformation. It originates from the works of the 21st century philosopher PewDiePie who is often dubbed as the father of gamerism.
There are many different schools of thought under the gamerist ideology. Each of these facets are trying to achieve a different objective. Some ridicule the philosophy of gamerism to be synonymous with a utopia. However it is the commonly held belief of all gamerists that it is not an impossible dream.

Man1: How do you identify yourself politically?
Man2: I am a supporter of gamerism. That makes me a gamerist.

First Night Gangsterism

First heard on MTV's "World of Jenks". Term created by the rapper Maino. It goes something like this: You meet a girl for the first time. Take her back to her home or hotel and “give her the penetration of life”

Man 1: I'm taking you out on the town tonight for the first time. I wanna see some First Night Gangsterism.

Man 2: What?

Man 1: You gotta meet a girl for the first time. Take her back to her home or hotel and give her the penetration of life.

gangsterism

any act that has something menacing about it. it's also a philosophy in a sense that any action you take is being done for the mere joy of feeling invincible.

See, when I roll in my Porsche 930 Turbo, and I'm cruising down the Blvd, these people respect the power that I bring, both in style and substance, that is gangsterism.
