Pentropy

pentropic (pen-tro-pik) adj. Having the property of pentropy.

The origin of the word is attributed to St. Louis theater publicist and blogger Brad Graham, who is also credited with the term "Blogosphere"

Pantroptimist

A person who opens the same pantry or refigerator more than once within a short period of time with the notion of something delicious magically appearing, as if they missed it upon previous glances. Although they continue to follow the same pattern when hungry, pantroptimists are typically left with picking a mediocre item that they saw twenty minutes into rifling through a food storage location.
Ricardo: "Hey Pete why is Jim looking through the same places to find food?"

Pete: "I'm not sure, it's not like he mystically overlooked some tasty treat or something!"

Ricardo: "Seriously... fucking pantroptimist."

Stealthie 

when you're holding up your phone and making faces at it, as though you are taking a selfie, but you're really taking a picture of the person across from you or the wall or anything else that seems interesting but you don't want to be caught dead taking a picture of.

This action is often made more convincing by wiggling the eyebrows or opening the mouth, to pretend you're trying to get a Snapchat filter to work.
FRIEND A: "Did you just take a stealthie of me?"

FRIEND B (turning phone around): "no I was just using snapchat's new filter, see?"

The grindset is a contemporary ideology of self-exploitation disguised as strength, deeply tied to the aesthetics of the “sigma male” and to new digital forms of patriarchy. It promotes the idea that human worth depends on productivity, economic success, absolute emotional control, and the ability to work endlessly, turning vulnerability, rest, community, and tenderness into signs of weakness. Beneath its rhetoric of discipline and power often lies a profound inability to relate healthily to pain, fragility, and human interdependence.
“That’s the grindset, brother. While weak men sleep and complain, sigma males stay disciplined, work in silence, suppress emotions, and build power while everyone else wastes time chasing comfort.”
