somethingism

The beliefs held by an individual who credits the existence of God(s) or a higher power, but does not subscribe to the specific religious beliefs held by any particular faith or institutionalized religion.

John: I don't go to church, I don't pray, and I'm not religious, but I believe in some kind of a higher power. Is there a name for that?

Steve: Yeah, it's called 'somethingism.'

post-somethingism

An art movement developed in the early 21st century in the southern suburbs of Perth, Western Australia. It is defined by its use of non-specific mediums and its general lack of standardised conceptualisation.

"I've tried abstract expressionism, post-modern feminist printmaking and romanticism but in the end, fuck it all. Post-somethingism is the only way forward in an art world defined by constraints."

Sweet Somethings

Endearments and pillow talk whispered into a lover's ear. More meaningful than sweet nothings.

We were kissing and then he spoke sweet somethings softly into my ear.

twenty-somethings

A specific demographic group, those aged 20-29. Often Obama supporters (regardless of the country they live in), heavy drinkers, users of urbandictionary.com (and the souce of all the worthwhile-to-read definitions, as opposed to the adolescents that write the unfunny definitions that either profess their love for a gf/bf or proclaim their hatred of a schoolmate), students, servers, bartenders, clubgoers, in massive debt yet still optimistic, and believe that they can change the world if they just work together (until they reach the threshold age of 30, when 98% people realize the futility of their causes).

The author of this UD definition belongs to twenty-somethings demographic.

The courageous protesters at Tiananmen Square were mostly twenty-somethings.

"Oh I don't know, it's somethinging out there"

something-ism

A term first (and probably, only ever) used on the popular tv show "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" in ep. 19 of the third season ("Choices"). Can be used to point out obvious discrimination that doesn't quite fit any specific "-ism".

"How dare you cut me out of the joint because I have Hep C. That's... something-ism..."
