Primordial Ocean Hypothesis

A near-universal archetype in creation myths reinterpreted as an intuitive grasp of a cosmological medium prior to spacetime. This hypothesis posits that many cultures' "primordial waters" (Nu in Egyptian, Apsu in Mesopotamian, Tehom in Hebrew) describe a pre-geometric, fluid-like substrate from which spacetime itself condenses. In modern terms, this could correspond to the quantum foam, the string theory landscape, or a Bose-Einstein condensate of fundamental fields. The act of creation is the "solidification" or "parting" of these waters to form the dry land of stable dimensions and physical laws.
Example: In the Primordial Ocean Hypothesis, the universe before the Planck time is not a singularity point, but a boundless, timeless, fluid realm of indistinguishable energy-states—the Ocean. The Big Bang is akin to the ocean freezing in a specific pattern, with the ice crystals being the lattice of spacetime and the trapped bubbles being quantum fluctuations. Different "freezing patterns" could produce different universes with different physics, all solidifying from the same featureless, liquid potential.

Someone who is addicted to obtaining money and building wealth. A money addict and fanatic. Breadheads often work more than one full-time job, and some even participate in illicit activities to "obtain the bread".
A breadhead is like a crackhead, but for money instead of crack.

schmegegge 

Yiddish slang word meaning bullshit, baloney, hogwash, nonsense, crock of shit or hot air.
I don't buy the schmegegge about Morty sleeping with Moira.
His version of the story was pure schmegegge.
The whole schmegegge was made up to get Liz a little bit of attention.

eye bleach 

Looking or experiencing something nice after witnessing something horrid like a disgusting gif or a disturbing video. Typically used as eye bleach are nice images of whatever makes the disturbed person happy.
"Bleach my eyes! Why is that woman's face ripped off!?"
*Looks up images of puppies and kittens.*
"That's good eye bleach."

Noun. Portmanteau of "street" and "road": it describes a street, er, road, built for high speed, but with multiple access points. Excessive width is a common feature. A common feature in suburbia, especially along commercial strips. Unsafe at any speed, their extreme width and straightness paradoxically induces speeding. Somewhat more neutral than synonymous traffic sewer.
Did you see what the traffic engineers want to do to our street? They're going to turn it into a total stroad!
