The art by which people get dressed up and go to nightclubs and pretend not to be noticed only to secretly be in desperate need for acceptance and validation
girls dressing like sluts, guys trying to talk to girls - they are all seeking approval and its nothing but a validation fest

*in a huge group chat instead of one on one*
Tim: "Oi Eric I'm getting a car tomorrow, I wanna know if you think it's a good one or not?"
Eric: "Yeah sure mate, what kind you thinking?"
Tim: "car brand here - a really expensive one"
Eric: "Ah sweet, yeah get one of those."
Tim: *continues to talk about how amazing said car is*
Tim: "I'm not sure"
Tim: "Do you reckon it's worth it?"
*outside of said group chat*
Phoebe: "Tim is such a validation whore!"
--
Girl #1: "Omg, I'm so ugly!"
Girl #2: "No you're not!"
Girl #3: "You're gorgeous!"
Girl #4: "Don't say that! You're stunning!"
Girl #5: "You're perfect!"
Girl #1: Aww thanks guys! ... I still think I am though."
(And thus the cycle repeats, giving Girl #1 an endless amount of fished compliments).

The interjected exclamation following a statement that is true, or that the speaker of the phrase agrees with. Phrase use should have absolutely no correlation to food, as the irony is lost...
"My girlfriend is the stupidest girl in town."
"Why, man?"
"She doesn't know how to spell 'facetious'."
"Valid salad."
"Why, man?"
"She doesn't know how to spell 'facetious'."
"Valid salad."

something horrible or morbid in the written word, on film, or in an image, that explains itself in a way you can understand and/or appreciate. creating something horrible or morbid that is not simply to shock, scare, or disgust people.
Some of Edgar Allen Poe's work, like the Cask of Amontillado, had a sort of morbid vailidity behind it. (or) I saw that horror movie, Final Destination, and it seemed that most of the killings were done to shock people, it lacked morbid validity compared to a movie like Silence of the Lambs.

The act of seeing if what you’re either doing or saying is accurate using another person to bounce off of.
