Because I'm a Catholic, right?

(N) When you're pushed to the corner during a debate or an argument, and you have no valid points to put across, you may use this slang to save your face and guilt your opponent. This is an important victim card in India.

Catheros 

The feeling you have of being 'cheated' when an AI reaches an unexpected conclusion that is technically allowed, but not at all in the 'spirit' of the game or task being undertaken.
Example: I ask the AI to recite the numbers 1 to 10. The AI recites "1,2,3,10". When i ask it about the other numbers, it tells me that it gave me all the numbers between 1 and 10, and that it arbitrarily chose to count in base-4 because I didn't explicitly ask it to do so in base-10.

This behavior can be described as being Catheros

Posttraumatic Catheter Disorder 

Residual and repeated intrusive recollections of having the catheter removed from one’s penis.
My Posttraumatic Catheter Disorder is a bear; just seeing someone using a drinking straw can send me into sudden paroxysms of fear.

the cathedral 

Describes the broadly left leaning 'media academia complex' in which Western Liberal democracy is steeped. In broad terms, the juxtaposition of cultural Marxism and what is seen as democracy's intrinsic tyranny where takers get to out vote makers.

It is a term coined by dark enlightenment bloggers and gaining increasingly widespread usage.
Since the Cathedral has ascended to global supremacy, it no longer has need for Founding Fathers, who awkwardly recall its parochial ancestry, and impede its transnational public relations. Rather, it seeks perpetual re-invigoration through their denigration. The phenomenon of the ‘New Atheism’, with its transparent progressive affiliations, attests abundantly to this. Paleo-puritanism must be derided in order for neo-puritanism to flourish – the meme is dead, long live the meme!

Word of the Day on October 28, 2026
A lighthearted reaction upon receiving disappointing news of some sort. Usually something that isn't a particularly a big deal, esp. when it primarily affects someone else - sort of a mild schadenfreude. Sometimes doubled or tripled, and possibly said in a sing-songy voice for added comedic effect to imitate a muted trumpet, which is how the meme originated.
