Vtec
Honda managed to get 1 million unicorns, crammed in the engine block and when you get to around 5 and a half thousand revs, they all fart at exactly the same time giving you V-tec.

VTEC
Honda's name for their variable valve timing system that happens to include electronic lift control. (See also : MIVEC, VVTL-i, VariCam Plus, VANOS, and VVL. )
For combustion engines, it allows the increase of air and fuel consumption when VTEC is engaged.
Due to its "lift control", VTEC doesn't engage until higher RPMs to save fuel. Once engaged however, fuel economy drops significantly as performance increases by 20 - 30 horsepower with an increase of torque efficiency.
To market their "economy" cars, Honda used VTEC to have higher horse-power claims. Most of their horsepower claims are at high RPM marks (7,500 or higher), whereas other motor companies make their claims at lower RPM marks (5,500 or below).
This confused most buyers as they thought that engaging their VTEC would allow for them to enjoy peak fuel economy AND peak performance at the same time (hence grew the term to mock VTEC-users; "vtak just kicked in yo!")
To add to the illusion of performance (but keep the status of "economy car"), most VTEC-motors were dropped into chassis with a front-wheel drive drive train (with the S2000 and NSX exempt).
Due to their front-wheeled drive pull, some VTEC users became euphoric in what seemed to be a "fast" car(though it was mostly because of the "pull" force from the car being a FWD vehicle).
Ultimately, the concept of variable valve timing and lift control is now used by other car companies.

VTEC Armenians
VTEC Armenians noun;plural: (You can also call them VTECs for short.) The word VTEC is a name of an engine found in a Honda S2000, or other Honda models. But a VTEC Armenian is simply a fresh-off-the-boat, Iranian Armenian. Here in LA, all the "VTECs" would choose a fixed up Honda Civic, than choosing a supercharged 1967 Camaro. These types of people enjoy street racing, as if they own the road. They like to listen to Techno, they have spiked hair everywhere, they pluck or wax their eyebrows, and they supposedly get "crunk" at parties, when they don't even know what crunk means, they constantly use persian words while speaking armenian, and they always have to use the word bro when they are speaking english. VTEC stands for Verjapes Tehranits Ekank California. This phrase in Armenian means, We have finally arrived from Tehran, Iran to California.
1. Wow, those VTEC Armenians were going 120 mph on the 134 Southbound.
2. Can't those VTECs stop busting out Techno, and close their windows?

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.
