Methionylthreonylthreonylglutaminylarginyl… isoleucine 

Titin is the largest known protein in nature, playing a crucial role in muscle contraction and elasticity. It is a structural protein found in the sarcomeres of striated muscles, such as skeletal and cardiac muscle, where it helps maintain the integrity of the muscle fiber structure and assists in the passive elasticity of muscles during contraction and stretching.

Titin's full name, often cited as the longest word in the English language, is a chemical name that describes the protein's intricate molecular structure. Its full name is 189,819 letters long and represents the precise sequence of amino acids that make up the protein. Due to the extreme length of the name, it is typically abbreviated to "titin" for practical use.

This incredibly lengthy name is a systematic description based on the protein's chemical composition, specifically the sequence of its constituent amino acids, and was coined by scientific conventions for naming proteins in a highly detailed manner. However, because the name is so long, it is not typically used in everyday scientific contexts. Instead, "titin" is used to refer to this massive protein.
Titin ( also known as Methionylthreonylthreonylglutaminylarginyl… isoleucine) , is the largest known protein, plays a vital role in the contraction of the muscles and its elasticity by connecting the Z-line to the M-line in muscle fibers.

Methionylthreonylthreonylglutaminylarginyl…isoleucine 

This is by record, the longest pronounced English word ever said is Methionylthreonylthreonylglutaminylarginyl…isoleucine, I cannot say its full name because that will take way too long, look it up if you want the full word.
Doctor, Doctor, I think I have Methionylthreonylthreonylglutaminylarginyl…isoleucine!

METHIONYLTHREONYLTHREONYGLUTAMINYLARGINYL … ISOLEUCINE 

Note the ellipses. All told, the full chemical name for the human protein titin is 189,819 letters, and takes about three-and-a-half hours to pronounce. The problem with including chemical names is that there’s essentially no limit to how long they can be. For example, naming a single strand of DNA, with its millions and millions of repeating base pairs, could eventually tab out at well over 1 billion letters.
It is said of the situation where a person has the bad luck to make contact with his testicles against an undefined surface or object, intentioned or not.
Given the nature of the word, it is more appropriate to design cases where the interaction is made with a moving object, for example, a ball.
Although it is extremely painful for the victim, it tends to be considerably funny to people who witness it.

Man, I just watched the funniest nutshot video ever.

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.
What a fucking nerd neck!

He is building so fast, nerd neck!

Looser more like a nerd neck ha!
