Praxeology
Praxeology is the distinctive method of the Austrian school of economics, popularized by the economist Ludwig Von Mises. It rests on the fundamental axiom that individual human beings act, that is, on the primordial fact that individuals engage in conscious actions toward chosen goals. This concept of action contrasts to purely reflexive, or knee-jerk, behavior, which is not directed toward goals.

Contary to your narrow, bigoted beliefs, we're not sitting here "talking about porn." We're engaging in a pertinent discussion concerning Jenna Jameson's role in contemporary American pornology, thank you very much!

plowology
plowology...noun:a deliberate way of life, defined by but not exclusively limited to an appreciation of the ironic, innate, spirituality of the deep south and committment to the only things that are true...peace, love & bbq. Accidentally discovered, by Americana artist John "Hound" Brown, along with his deceased brother, Glenn Edwin Brown,circa 1987,somewhere on Interstate 40 west, just east of Winston Salem, North carolina. While in the midst of driving & meditating to the Allman Brothers, the two Brown brothers experienced a deep vision in which the solution to all the world's were revealed to them. In exchange for this ancient spiritual knowledge, Glenn & Hound were chosen to descend into the bowels of hell, releasing Robert Johnson's soul and delivering the Boogeyman to his rightful fate..and told to write literature and record songs that planted the seeds of Plowology. ON December 17th, 2007, older brother Glenn was called to return to his creator at approximately 8:15 pm eastern time, where he resides in the rhythym section of the Allstar Plowology Band on the Southern side of Heaven, top level nearest the Sun & Duane Allman. Younger brother, John "Hound" Brown continues this work, Plowology...and continues to share the wisdom of , "Peace, Love & BBQ." For more info visit, www.plowology.com, google plowology, go to myspace, facebook..or better yet...invite some strangers in need in your home...cook them dinner...play music for & with them...and care for their needs. Plowology is the beginning, becoming a plowologist requires the simplest of committments, which in turn makes it so difficult. To love unconditionally, give the very shirt off your back...and always share your BBQ.

protologism
protologism n Greek protos, first, original + Greek logos, word; cf. prototype, neologism - a newly created word which has not yet gained any wide acceptance. It is a prototype or a hypothetical projection of a new lexical unit before it may become current in writing or speech. The word "protologism" proposed here and now is itself an example of protologism.
In contrast to protologisms, neologisms are words that have already been in public usage by authors other than their inventors. As soon as a protologism finds its way into newspapers and websites, journals and books, it becomes a neologism.

Glippy
A slang term for GLP-1 medications(like Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, etc.), usually referring to their appetite-killing, weight-loss, or “I forgot to eat” effects rather than the medical details.
Usage:
* Often casual, ironic, or meme-y
* Can imply effortless weight loss, suppressed hunger, or being “powered by pharmaceuticals”
Notes:
Not a brand name—just shorthand for the whole GLP-1 wave. Frequently shows up in online jokes, gym talk, and group chats where people pretend they’re *totally* doing it naturally.
