Afropriation
A portmanteau of the words "Afro" - meaning something associated with Sub-Saharan Africa, and "appropriation" - as in "cultural appropriation". One who engages in Afropriation is called an "Afropriator".
Afropriation refers to the trend of those in the SSA diaspora (particularly African-Americans) who either inappropriately adopt or outright steal elements of a peoples culture or history. This is seen most often in Afrocentric circles, wherein they commonly target the culture and history of people such as Ancient Egyptians, Berbers (usually incorrectly called "Moors"), Native Americans, and Ancient Israelites. This involves allegations that those peoples were actually "Black" (i.e. Sub-Saharan African) and that, as SSAs, Afropriators have the right to claim and adopt their culture and histories as their own. These actions almost always carry racist overtones, such as harassment and denigration of the peoples modern descendants, usually called "fakes" and racial slurs (examples include "Five-dollar Indians" for Native Americans and "Jew-ish Khazars" for Jews) and conspiracy theory-laden accusations of plots and cabals throughout history seeking to deprive SSAs of some kind of better, glorious past. Afropriators rely heavily on pseudohistorical "evidence", works by discredited authors - ranging from those who retained a modicum of respect from their peers despite their claims, such as Cheikh Anta Diop, to out-right laughingstocks, such as S.O.Y. Keita - and doctored pictures.

Person A: "So I saw this guy engaging in Afropriation earlier."
Person B: "What’s that?"
Person A: "Well you know when you see a Black person haphazardly using ancient Egyptian symbolism and claiming that they were actually Black and that modern Egyptians are just "thieving Arabs"? That’s a prime example of Afropriation."
Person B: "Wow. What complete and utter idiots."

Passive Appropriate
To say something that in context is appropriate, but can be taken easily out of context to be made inappropriate.
Susie told me that I had a big package, and we know she wasn't talking about the box I was carrying; it was so passive appropriate!

Back when I lived in upstate new york
A meaningless, unimpressive, self-serving introduction. An indicator that the story about to be shared will be pointless and dumb.
Back when I lived in upstate new york, I also had to park on the street - on two occasions, we got enough snow, mixed with just the right plowing, that my car was lifted off the ground from so much snow being jammed underneath it.
