marvelyn 

Marvelyn is a person who is very kind and is very loyal. She is the type of girl who will say what she means even if it’s crazy. She doesn’t care if people don’t like her, she doesn’t give a damn ;)! If a friend asks her for something, she will give it to them because she is such a nice person, but sometimes people take advantage of that. She is very beautiful and had eyes that you can get lost in. She has very puffy cheeks that are so adorable. She doesn’t have to put and effort because she always looks perfect. If you have a Marvelyn, don’t take advantage of her.

Marvin's Marvelous Mechanical Museum 

A museum in Michigan which is dedicated to displaying a variety of animatronics and other coin-operated machines. It was originally owned by the late Marvin Yagoda, until he died just after New Year's of 2017, when ownership was transferred to his son, Jeremy Yagoda. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the museum was forced to shut down temporarily, until Michigan reaches Phase 5 of containment, and was faced with financial trouble due to maintenance on the machines, but thanks to a GoFundMe, they were able to remain afloat. Though Marvin died in 2017, he is attributed with the quotations "Wouldn’t the world be better off if we took nonsense more seriously?", and "Don’t use time or words carelessly; neither can be retrieved".

Furthermore, the "fabloo" band known as "Tally Hall" created an album named after Marvin's Marvelous Mechanical Museum, and Marvin himself appeared in an episode of the Tally Hall internet show

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.”
