TA Syndrome

This is a condition common to those that have served/are serving for the Territorial Army in which they delude themselves with grandeur and demand respect in day to day "civi" life based on the fact they are in to TA.

People with this syndrome do not suffer since a secondary symptom is being utterly oblivious to how they are despised by the real army and civilians alike.

Not all members of the Territorial Army have this syndrome, but those that do can be detected by the fact they will bring up the fact that they are in the TA within seconds of starting conversation.

Bartender to regular: What a cunt.

Regular: Yeah, TA Syndrome.

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.”
