YouTuber: “Casting Cockroaches + iPhone 7 Plus in Molten Aluminum!”

Dumbasses (probably a TikTok user): “this guy deserves a painful death for killing those poor madagascar hissing cockroaches. Those things are bred to be pets and he bought them to kill them 😢”

Normal person with brain cells: “Cockroaches cannot feel pain or emotions. Kill those bastards!”

Dumbasses: “I am actually crying from that video. I have hissers as pets and I couldn’t watch as he tortured those cute hissers. My hissers can feel pain and emotions, unlike you asshole”

YouTube: “This is animal cruelty. We need to give him a guidelines strike and delete the video!”

How dare you do that in my presence?'

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.”
