Apr 30 Word of the Day
A buzz word being used to refer to creators and influencers forming or encouraging unhealthy relationships with their fans. Usually used in the context of young audiences feeling they have a relationship with the influencer due to the huge amount of the influencer’s content they consume. The influencer in question, however, is unaware of the fan’s existence other than the general knowledge of having fans. Common examples include Dream and his stans. These relationships are exacerbated by the influencers confirming they have more than a creator-to-viewer relationship.
The word is circulating due to various YouTube essays about the phenomenon using the word, and therefore people who enjoy complaining about influencers repeating what they heard in the video in any comments section they can find.

1. when you are on 3 out of 4 chances (downs) in football. your team has the ball and you want to score a touchdown. you have 4 total chances to go 10 yards. if you do, you get 4 more chances (back to first down)!! you can get closer to the goal line! if you don’t the other team gets the ball, right there. so, maybe with your last attempt you kick it as far back as you can to put space between the other team and their goal - that’s a punt. sure, its a good bet. but, if you only have like, one yard left, maybe you take the chance and go for it. going for it is the opposite of punting, it’s the opposite, going for it, get it. teams that go for it make the game exciting
2. derogatory name for a guy who leads someone on then pusses out because, he doesn’t want to try that hard. he knows he’ll get the ball back eventually. he’ll try again then.

football guy: they are stopping us at every attempt! we need 16 yards to the next first down and we’re ahead by 30 points
