The Apollo Principle
A big mission that unites people in purpose.
On May 25, 1961, in his address to Congress, President John F. Kennedy proposed the national goal of "landing a man on the Moon and returning him safely to the Earth" by the end of the 1960s. This goal was accomplished on the Apollo 11 mission, when astronauts Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin landed on the Moon on July 20, 1969, later returning back to earth.
There is a great story of the janitor mopping the floor at the Space Station being asked what his job was in the organisation. His answer was: ‘I’m helping to put a man on the moon”.
This highlights the Apollo Program’s 'secret sauce' - a big mission or goal to unite people in purpose.
A big challenge aligns people under a common cause like nothing else can.

apollo the dog
Apollo is the best dog ever. He loves people and cats. Human food is his weakness. He will be hugeeeee. A great companion, and an amazing cuddle buddy. If your dogs name is Apollo you are lucky because he will love you forever, especially if you have gummies. Although he will get hyper and run around the house for an hour, he looks cute while doing it. Btw he also really likes to play with chickens.
Person one: wow what a cute dog, what’s his name?
Person two: this is Apollo the dog, isn’t he the best dog ever.

fache-couture
French slang, which translated, means "bull's fashion" but basically equates to "hyper trendy" or overly trendy. Used when a person wishes to express distaste at the latest fashion trend/fad, because it seems that everyone has a certain item of clothing or is wearing it. This term is most frequently heard in Paris but is slowly spreading to other parts of France.

Glippy
A slang term for GLP-1 medications(like Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, etc.), usually referring to their appetite-killing, weight-loss, or “I forgot to eat” effects rather than the medical details.
Usage:
* Often casual, ironic, or meme-y
* Can imply effortless weight loss, suppressed hunger, or being “powered by pharmaceuticals”
Notes:
Not a brand name—just shorthand for the whole GLP-1 wave. Frequently shows up in online jokes, gym talk, and group chats where people pretend they’re *totally* doing it naturally.
