Get the Snaptural mug.Naptural/Napptural is a combination of the word nappy and natural.
It can be used to describe a lifestyle of a person of African descent and/or their hair in it's unaltered state by not putting chemicals (relaxers, perms, texturizers, dye) or heat applications (hot combs, flat irons, curling irons) in or on their hair to change the texture and/or color of their hair.
People of African descent describe their hair as kinky, coily and curly.
There is much debate about whether the word naptural means 100% unaltered hair or not.
Many napturals color their hair with commercial dyes and still consider themselves naptural, which is accepted within the naptural community.
Many napturals also use henna, which is a flowering plant used as a natural, permanent dye to color hair.

Get the Snapture mug.n., v.
When one sends a Snapchat photo to someone that they have recently contacted through text, Facebook message, twitter DM, etc. but not received a reply, with the intention of seeing if the receiver is in fact, ignoring or avoiding them as any snaps sent have a status indicator of whether the person has received or opened the aforementioned snap. If the snap was opened, the sender knows s/he is on his phone, fully capable of replying.
This can also be done to see if the person is actively on their phone BEFORE contacting them through text, Facebook etc.
This simple tactic is usually used by smart(crazy) girlfriends who are concerned about their boyfriends whereabouts or what he is doing and want to trap him with a snapchat, invalidating any excuse such as "my phone died, my phone was off, I wasn't using my phone" etc.

Get the slaptual music mug.A concept from the Avengers comic/movie franchise, where if Thanos (the Malthusian monster who opposes the Avengers) obtains a collection of six MacGuffins (called "Infinity Stones"), he can snap his fingers to cause a randomly selected half of all life to spontaneously disappear. The word is a portmanteau of "snap" (as in, snapping one's fingers) and "Rapture" (meaning the purported Christian end times predicted in the Book of Revelations).
Earth's mightiest heroes must assemble once again to prevent Lord Thanos from bringing on the Snapture.
