Get the Sinead O' Connor mug.
Sinead O'Connor
an Irish singer, popular in the late 80s - early 90s. In 1990 she had an international #1 hit (the Prince - written "Nothing Compares 2 U") and a #1 album: "I Do Not Want What I Haven't Got". She has great talent, an excellent singing voice and she can play some instruments and writes most of her songs, too. She has an extreme appetite for controversy however and in the autumn of 1992 it all backfired when on TV she ripped up a photograph of the beloved Pope John Paul II and shouted "Fight the real enemy!". By doing that she pissed off an entire planet because she dissed an icon admired by not just Catholics but Christians of other denominations, Jews, Muslims, Buddhists, Hindus, people of other faiths and more. Even atheists respected him for his stances on social issues and human rights. She did it to promote an album and it all flew back into her face. Sinead recordings were smashed by a steamroller in New York City. She had enough notority with her shaved head which didn't dilute her pretty features one bit. The picture-tearing incident put her fame in the trash can, as she never scored a big hit again.
Today she still says and does stupid controversial things in public, but her music career ain't going nowhere.

I saw Sinead O'Connor rip up a picture of Pope John Paul II on the Letterman show late night on TV. A few people cheered. Others gasped in disbelief.

Nutshot
It is said of the situation where a person has the bad luck to make contact with his testicles against an undefined surface or object, intentioned or not.
Given the nature of the word, it is more appropriate to design cases where the interaction is made with a moving object, for example, a ball.
Although it is extremely painful for the victim, it tends to be considerably funny to people who witness it.

Nerd neck
A "human" that spends so much time playing video games that their posture is level nerd neck. Everytime anyone goes tryhard they hunch down and their neck gets longer there fore a nerd neck is always hunched down cause they're always going try hard. In other words a nerd neck is a try hard, since their neck is 100% longer than the average human being due to playing too many video games and taking them serious, nerd necks are not even considered human anymore but something more sad. Nerd necks are often found on fortnite, their natural habitat usually being tilted towers.

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.
