Chidi Anagonye Syndrome 

Analysis paralysis (or paralysis by analysis) describes an individual or group process when overanalyzing or overthinking a situation can cause forward motion or decision-making to become "paralyzed", meaning that no solution or course of action is decided upon.

Chidi of The Good Place is the ultimate example of Analysis Paralysis and it has now been renamed in the DSM-21(not really) to reflect this.

Anagonye's Tomato Problem

A 2019 thought experiment which points to the fallacies that unintended and unpreventable consequences bring into a system which evaluates virtue through traditional Benthemian Consequentialism.
It says much about literary critics' increasing ignorance of their own field that they can ignore Anagonye's Tomato Problem, which concerns the true nature and intentions of man, simply because it was invented by a television sitcom and not a philosophy textbook.

church hurt 

church hurt is where you experience a degree of distance, pain, or judgement from your church community. Essentially, you are just unable to “find your place”. This is prevalent in the Christian community, but can be extended to other religions.
Now that I am an adult I am beginning to heal from the church hurt that was inflicted on me as a child.

Huge. Surpassing normal expectations.
I was fishing with a Spinner Bait and a HONKIN pike came after it and hit it . Felt like a lawnmower running over a brick.

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?"
