Instanding 

Instanding ~ The opposite of outstanding.

Means, instead of demonstrating outwardly to the world, what a great person you are, and have external focus on your achievements for the day, hour or what not. Instanding is when you find out that within yourself, you are intrinsically a fantastic person and have so much going for you, that it doesn't matter what 'the external world' sees.
When somebody is going on a long journey, have an instanding time, I.e. I hope you find it within yourself to know that you are a beautiful person.

Have an instanding time on holiday, especially when going on a Spiritual retreat.

- "Nah, but I saw this dude pull off the islandic dragon in front of another dude. A bloody miracle he didn't get any on the dude's shoes, dude was spraying like a motherfucker."

Word of the Day on October 4, 2026
British slang for a scientist or technical expert, esp . when the speaker is not certain of the expert’s specific field of study. Not necessarily derogatory, but typically used by persons without a technical background. In the US, the equivalent would be “egghead”, “squint”, or “geek.”

Origin of the word is unknown. Started sometime in World War 2. Given the typical evolution of British slang, could easily have started because what these experts did was confusing or “baffling” to the common person.
According to the boffins downstairs, the murderer used a serrated blade.
