Noun

Definition: A way to remind people of the ineradicablilty of hope dispite the futility of effort.

History: The word itself is quoting the meme-like video "Name one thing" *(the link to which is below) where two middle aged white men react to just the beginning of a different video that starts off with a middle aged white man with dreadlocks playing a very colourful/rainbow coloured steel pan who says: "Name one thing..." There was clearly more to it, he may have meant to say something along the lines of: "Name one thing that is orange" or "Name one thing that in bigger than an elephant" but the men in an attempt to make a humorous Youtube short they cut out everything past: "Name one thing..." One man (the man on the viewers' left) says: "Rocks" confidently (which we later learn is more than one thing) and the other man (the one on the veiwers' right) on the says: "That's good; mine was the ineraticability of hope despite the futility of effort" and the other man responds: "...actually rocks is more than one thing..." and then the video ends. The video is in all about 10 seconds long and a quite funny short in my opinion (and the opinion of many others seeing as the video has over 669 thousand likes).

Observation: It sounds reminiscent of a Native American word that was put into the Latin script; a lot of Native American words have apostrophes and many don't include many vowels or abide by the usual laws of English grammar.
Man 1: We cannot give up... but it's almost all too late.

Man 2: Pyrtpha'a dear brother.

Serial Monogamist 

Someone who jumps from one relationship immediately into another one.

Serial monogamists can not stand to be alone and often suffer from vast commitment and insecurity issues.

Because they jump into relationships immediately after the previous one has ended, serial monogamists typically don't take the time to reflect on their behavior or why their previous relationships failed; thus, they end up making the same relationship mistakes over and over again.
Person 1: Damn, Dustin already has a new girlfriend?! It's only been two weeks since he broke up with his fiance! I think he's a sociopath.

Person 2: No, he's a serial monogamist...
