What time is it Mr. Wolf? 

A thrilling game played by action seeking youth, where-in a selected person is deemed as the "wolf". The "wolf" will face a wall and close his/her eyes, while the remaining participants line up a ways back. When the players scream, "What time is it Mr. Wolf?", they shall receive a number from the wolf, resulting in them moving forward the same amount of steps.
The game climaxes when the children ask the wolf for the time, and he informs them it is "LUNCHTIME". They will need to run back to the starting position, before the wolf pounces on them and gobbles them up.

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.”
