A small picturesque town in west Michigan home to the fierce Rockford Rams. Grad classes are upwards of six hundred and every team is number one in the state thanks to steroids. Because Rockford is perfect, any flunker, flunkie, and pregnant girl is redirected to the nearby school, river "retard" valley. Nine out of ten families are rich, conservative republicans while the rest are democrats. The school is 99.4% Caucasian, and black kids are celebrities. The cops hate the kids, because every last one is stoned. Rockford is home to the biggest marijuana trade in west michigan. Teachers only like you if you've made varsity by playing before you could walk.
Look at that Rockford kid!
Will he give us free weed if we apologize that he bears the burden of being a Ram?

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.
“I’m not dieting, I’m just on that glippy.”
“Ever since the glippy hit, food feels optional.”
“That summer body? Yeah, glippy assisted.”
