Technopocalypse

1. The hypothetical singularity moment when the advance of technology supercedes advance in relevant security by a margin so large that it results in unforseen catastrophic consequences for the entire planet.

2. The hypothetical scenario where we are inadequately prepared to deal with natural disasters such as solar flares crippling electronic, communications, financial and transport systems, that would effectively cripple the everyday functions of entire countries.
"Internet of Things is great and all, but when you're potentially arming hackers you might want to be more concerned about the technopocalypse."

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.”
