An incredibly good show starring Tony Shaloub. Sharona used to be Monk's assistant but she left and now his assistant is Natalie :-( But its still the funniest show on. Monk is afraid of milk, dogs, germs, small spaces, elevators, kids and birth. He is OCD and needs everything to be perfect. His wife, Trudy died in a car bomb accident and he will never be the same. Hes funny though, and so is everyone else on the show.
It's a jungle out there, disorder and confusion everywhere.........

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.”
