Broder Daniel 

Broder Daniel were a swedish rock/pop band. They have a whole lot of fans in Sweden, and they've sort of built a culture there. They split up in 2008, mostly because the guitarist, Anders Göthberg, killed himself in march 2008. Broder Daniel's last concert was 8/8-08 at the swedish festival Way Out West. Recently (in july 2009) a documentary about Broder Daniel and their last concert came out, and it's called "Broder Daniel Forever". The singer in Broder Daniel's name is Henrik Berggren.

Famous songs:
Shoreline, When We Were Winning, Whirlwind, I'll be gone, Underground, No Time For Us.
Dude1: I listened to Broder Daniel last night.
Dude2: Me too, I love them and always will.

borderline-suicidal 

When somebody consistently and repeatedly has suicidal thoughts, but hasn't seriously considered it and planned out a comprehensive course of action. Like almost all medical problems, early treatment is extremely important.
borderline-suicidal Person: I lost my job and my wife is considering divorce.... maybe I should just put one right in my head...
(Next day) Gotta drive to the unemployment office...maybe I should just lock the door and drive into a lake...
Similar thoughts repeat frequently

Suicidal person: My family was murdered and I'm being framed for it....I'll go get my gun and end it right here. I'd better do it over the bridge so there's no mess. Just in case my life insurance pays out, I'll write a will to have it all donated to charity...

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.”
