"Oh, y'all been having secret family meetings about me?

*adjusts glasses*

Cousin Marcus, let's discuss how you're a 'crypto millionaire' but still borrowing gas money in the family group chat.

Auntie Patricia, you joining in too? Your relationship status changes faster than your wig collection, and that's facts.

Uncle Mike questioning my parenting? Three baby mamas all named Ashley might wanna focus on his own kids first.

Sister Sarah spreading rumors? Baby, I got screenshots from Thanksgiving when you was crying about your fifth failed business this year.

*closes book*

This was just the preview. Don't make me pull out them timestamps and receipts. Next time y'all wanna have a family meeting, remember - The Reader keeps files on everybody."

The Baby Mind Reader 

pronoun

Derek Ogilvie is a Scottish "psychic" (or rather psycho) who uses cold reading techniques, and pretends in all seriousness that he can read unruly babies' minds for their parents. What he actually does is mention a series of possible reasons why the mother is single or the couple aren't getting on very well until he hits the jackpot and they cry, having not imparted any practical advice as to how to deal with the errant child. He has a television show in the UK on Channel 5. He's a fraud.
I can't see how anyone actually believes The Baby Mind Reader is actually a psychic... he's blatantly guessing.

Word of the Day on October 17, 2026
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.
“I’m not dieting, I’m just on that glippy.”
“Ever since the glippy hit, food feels optional.”
“That summer body? Yeah, glippy assisted.”
