Necroticism 

1991 album by a legendary English death metal band Carcass. Arguably, their best.

Full album title is "Necroticism — Descanting the Insalubrious", but most don't dare trying to pronounce that, let alone memorize it.
"Descanting" means "talking about something in detail and for a long time", while "insalubrious" is a synonym for "rotten", "sickly" or "putrid".
Newbie: — Hey, I wanna get into death metal a bit, any classics you'd recommend?
Metalhead: — Can't go wrong with Necroticism by Carcass!

Necrotism 

Religion: the belief in death, Deathism.

Optional: idiot form of Necroticism; people who can't spell properly.
Please send me 10% of your gross earnings to fund my church of Necrotism. I don't need everyone to believe in death, beause Death believes in You.

2nd : did you hear that Carcass album Necrotism? - hey you're an idiot, its Necroticism, dumbass.

necrotism 

1. The practice of earning a specific position or office on the coattails, reputation, or based on the fondess for a dead relative.
2. Being favored in some way due to a familial relationship to a beloved person who is now deceased.
3. The practice of "keeping" a deceased relative "alive" officially for financial or professional gain and benefit.
1. After Rep. Sonny Bono died, it was no surprise he was followed in office by his wife Mary Bono. Political necrotism is a tried and true way for the people to feel like they've kept a bit of the person they've lost in office.

2. Jack's Dad is such a legend around here, they jumped at the chance to send him up the ladder. Never mind that the old coot is dead, Jack will be CEO one day thanks to the blatant necrotism.

3. Grandma died years ago, but through the magic of a little necrotism, my brother and I benefit from her monthly social security check to this day.

Neuroticism 

But you said (in a discussion with your daughter) that being low in neuroticism makes narcissists worse.
Hym “So how does that not apply to psychopathology? If neuroticism is the marker for psychopathology, how does low neuroticism not make the psychopath worse (thereby making them ‘fearless’ in your own words)?”

Word of the Day on August 25, 2026
West Midlands slang word for rockers, bikers, greasers etc. In the late 1980s it was used by the UK music press to refer to a specific scene centered around the bands Pop Will Eat Itself and Crazyhead. The term never found favour with readers of 'the inkies' (Sounds, Melody Maker and the still extant NME) and was soon dropped. Now often used in predominantly working-class areas of the midlands and the north to mean someone who listens to rock-derived music and/or dresses in a manner that suggests they affiliate themselves with rock music of some kind.
Some grebo passed with Sabbath playing on his stereo.
The Poppies are at no. 17? God, a grebo band in the charts!
They're playing nu-metal now, bloody grebos!
