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.
I can’t believe that creator encourages parasocial relationships with his fans...

Man what a parasocial relationship :/

A severe beating. Oftentimes well deserve. In American politics it happens when the party in power ignores the will of the people or pretends to know how to spend your money better than you do.
My administration really took a shellacking yesterday. Maybe Nancy Pelosi and I didn't communicate our policies clearly enough, or maybe we didn't do enough

The act of sticking your leg out and getting a male human to stand over your leg, and then you swiftly lift your leg up in order to hit the person in the balls.
You idiot! How did you fall for that shellacking?
