A stubborn view that things you use/are used to are better than anyone else's, just because you use/are used to them. Regardless that the other options may be objectively equal or better, a shymonistic person always fights for their thing, usually without providing any valid arguments.
European: How can you possibly drive on the left side of the road? That's so stupid, driving on the right side of the road makes much more sense.
Brit: How does it make more sense? There's no better driving side, just two options...
European: Well, then our option is better. Driving on the left side is weird. Everyone should drive on the right side, that's normal.
Brit: Quit the shymonism and say some real arguments.

Stealthie 

when you're holding up your phone and making faces at it, as though you are taking a selfie, but you're really taking a picture of the person across from you or the wall or anything else that seems interesting but you don't want to be caught dead taking a picture of.

This action is often made more convincing by wiggling the eyebrows or opening the mouth, to pretend you're trying to get a Snapchat filter to work.
FRIEND A: "Did you just take a stealthie of me?"

FRIEND B (turning phone around): "no I was just using snapchat's new filter, see?"

The grindset is a contemporary ideology of self-exploitation disguised as strength, deeply tied to the aesthetics of the “sigma male” and to new digital forms of patriarchy. It promotes the idea that human worth depends on productivity, economic success, absolute emotional control, and the ability to work endlessly, turning vulnerability, rest, community, and tenderness into signs of weakness. Beneath its rhetoric of discipline and power often lies a profound inability to relate healthily to pain, fragility, and human interdependence.
“That’s the grindset, brother. While weak men sleep and complain, sigma males stay disciplined, work in silence, suppress emotions, and build power while everyone else wastes time chasing comfort.”
