Pronounced: ob-er-in-d

The act of completely throwing away an advantage (whether it be in sports, games or life in general) where the end result is a complete and utter lost or failure.

Origins: comes from the TV show "Game of Thrones" where Oberyn Martell was winning a trial by combat and ended up losing the battle (and his life) due to his pride and him doing a monologue. His opponent was stabbed through the abdominal and was completely helpless on the ground. Yet, he still managed to lose.

My team was winning the championship game, but we oberyned it and lost.

I oberyned my chances with that girl I was seeing.

He oberyned the fight, and now it haunts him forever.

Obey the Walrus

A popular video on YouTube of a transvestite with polio dancing named Sandi Crisp, with the Spanish version of The Itsy Bitsy Spider playing in the background reversed.

It is commonly perceived as being a scary video among the horror community due to her disability.

Me and my friend watched Obey the Walrus just the other day and we had nightmares for weeks.
