Apr 30 Word of the Day
A buzz word being used to refer to creators and influencers forming or encouraging unhealthy relationships with their fans. Usually used in the context of young audiences feeling they have a relationship with the influencer due to the huge amount of the influencer’s content they consume. The influencer in question, however, is unaware of the fan’s existence other than the general knowledge of having fans. Common examples include Dream and his stans. These relationships are exacerbated by the influencers confirming they have more than a creator-to-viewer relationship.
The word is circulating due to various YouTube essays about the phenomenon using the word, and therefore people who enjoy complaining about influencers repeating what they heard in the video in any comments section they can find.

Put You Down - This is from Justin Bieber's stupid song where he is promising a girl he's gonna put her down (fuck her) but in reality he is only talking to his hand, and he then succeeds - he realizes he will never fuck a girl and he put's it down.... This can be said to a girl to let her know what your about.

Are we hanging out, or are you just gonna PYD all day?
I was getting real work done while you were busy PYD.
You can sit around PYD later; right now we have to go!
