Polipino 

Half Polish, half Filipino. The usual Polipino is very presentable, but don't let that fool you. They can be the hardest mutha fuckas if you piss them off. They get really offended if you call them by a different race.
Damn, check this polipino out. This guy is legit. Wish I was Polipino
Polipino by WestHighEagles February 24, 2009
A unisex term referring to a person or persons of ethnic descent originating from the Republic of the Philippines.

Pilipino refers to a person born in the Philippines. Filipino refers to a person not born in the Philippines, but of Philippine ethnicity.

This delineation is due to the fact that there is no phonetic equivalent of the letter 'F' in any of the Philippine Islands’ indigenous languages. Spaniards who named the Philippine Islands after King Phillip II (Las Islas Filipinas) had such a sound in their language. The closest phonetic sound inhabitants in the Philippines could use was ‘P.’

Hence, people Philippine-born refer to themselves as Pilipino (they even write it as ‘Pilipino’), while those born outside the Philippines (e.g. the United States) refer to themselves as Filipino (or Filipino-American in the above case).
Pilipino

Example 1:
My dad was born in the Philippines; he’s "Pilipino". I was born in Rampart, California; I’m Filipino-American.

Example 2:

Person 1: What’s your nationality?
Person 2: Full-Blooded American.
Person 1: No, where’re you from?
Person 2: West Covina, California.
Person 1: No, I mean, where’re your parents from?
Person 2: Oh – the Philippines.
Person 1: Oh so they’re Filipino.
Person 2: No, They’re "Pilipino".
Person 1: That’s what I said: Filipino.
Person 2: No, my parents are Pilipino. And I’m Filipino-American.
Person 1: …?

Politinoia 

An internet colloquialism that describes political opinions that are spawned from an objectively paranoid foundation.
Jeremy was telling about his new political opinion. Honestly I must admit, it came across as nothing but politinoia.

Politinoob

One who assumes that they know everything about politics and should be treated like a god.

They often refute anything/everything people say that is against their political views. They are the arrogant douchebags of the political world for short. You will find an abundance of them in the comment sections of political videos on YouTube.
Politinoob: BUSH SUCKS!!! HE RUINED US AND IN THE WORST PRESIDENT EVAR!!!!
Educated person: How so?
Politinoob: HE JUST SUCKS!!!!11
Educated person: Hmmm....

Word of the Day on October 28, 2026
A lighthearted reaction upon receiving disappointing news of some sort. Usually something that isn't a particularly a big deal, esp. when it primarily affects someone else - sort of a mild schadenfreude. Sometimes doubled or tripled, and possibly said in a sing-songy voice for added comedic effect to imitate a muted trumpet, which is how the meme originated.
