The NameSake Effect

When you stumble upon the musical greatness of the band NameSake you are left with what i like to call ***THE NAMESAKE EFFECT***

It is the bittersweet aftermath of having heard one of their catchy songs, seen one of their swooning smiles or have been embraced by one of their hugs. This sensation leaves you craving more. You may not realize the limitless hours you spend searching youtube for more NameSake videos, the countless times you have checked their twitters, or that you stalk their facebooks at least a dozen times daily. Do not be alarmed this reaction to NameSake is normal.

Will, Troy, Seth, Kevin and Brad - these five boys are true talents with humble hearts, they are to blame for this brain shaking fixation. NameSake lyrics and melodies navigate your way into another world where there are no limits, no rules. Proceed with joy as you are engulfed in The NameSake Effect :)

MOM: "Are we really listening to Borders and Fences again? But honey, you used to listen to a variety of music, what happened?"

ME: " NameSake happened!"

FRIEND: "You have been single for months and still wont date anyone, why?"
ME: "Well why should I even bother dating, when I already know who will be my future husband, he is in the band NameSake."

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?"

Grindset

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.”
