Psychic Junky

Psychic Junkies hop from psychic to psychic, tarot reader to tarot reader, astrologer to astrologer, and fortune teller to fortune teller seeking to hear exactly what they want to hear (a confirmation bias). They waste their money to get an endorphin rush without taking responsibility for their own lives. The readings they get rarely help them with the higher purpose of their soul journey, which is why they keep coming back to the same readers.

Term coined by Myret M. Bulgin during her first draft of an unpublished manuscript called Psychic Junkie that won her Nanowrimo in 2021.

Karen’s been to several psychics 100 times this year so far. She must be a psychic junky and suffer from psychic junkyism.

Psychic Junky

Coined from an unpublished manuscript from nanowrimo 2021, a psychic junky hops from fortune teller to fortune teller, psychic to psychic, astrologer to astrologer, medium to medium, and tarot reader to tarot reader or returning repeatedly to the same “fortune-teller” in search of confirmation biases or to deal with unresolved grief often blowing all their money on these “fortune tellers”while neglecting their very real responsibilities like electric bills and rent or mortgage. They very rarely take responsibility for their lives and turn over control to the whims of others.

Karen saw that psychic like 100 times this past year and still owes back rent. She’s a psychic junky.

Utility beer

Utility beer is the beer you keep around for the day-to-day moments when beer is a necessity to assist in pedestrian activities (golf, plumbing, yardwork, babysitting, staff meetings, Zoom calls). For the beer snob it is the beer you save for neighbors when they drop in at 3 p.m. on a Tuesday. It is differentiated from the actual high-end beer you save for special events, holidays, and special tastings.

Person 1: Dave, did you bring along those hazy craft IPA's so we could drink while cleaning Lyle's pool?
Person 2: Nope. I just have a bunch of utility beer that Steve dumped on me. Good enough for this. It is only 10:30 a.m.
