Metafiction 

"Fiction which knows that it is just made up".

A story is a kind of lie we like to hear. As readers we throw ourselves into the world of literature and fiction to "escape" from the real world. Literature is a form of escapism. The authors don't declare to us that the story is a lie and so they make the story convincing and enjoyable to read. This is a postmodern tendency known as "metafiction".
Jeanette Winerson's "Sexing the Cherry" is a core example of Metafiction.

"Metafiction? It's a postmodern term that creates a world of fantasy and makes the imagination spiral out of control".

Example 1: You gonna write one of your metafiction blog posts about how last night with that girl turned out? Too bad she ditched you. Nobody on the internet has to know that though.

Nerd neck 

A "human" that spends so much time playing video games that their posture is level nerd neck. Everytime anyone goes tryhard they hunch down and their neck gets longer there fore a nerd neck is always hunched down cause they're always going try hard. In other words a nerd neck is a try hard, since their neck is 100% longer than the average human being due to playing too many video games and taking them serious, nerd necks are not even considered human anymore but something more sad. Nerd necks are often found on fortnite, their natural habitat usually being tilted towers.
