It is what it is. It is what you want it to be

The word has a meaning that is a fluid as a river that floats down a mountain range. As lucid as dancing to funk poetry. As emotional as Nicolas Cage in National Treasure.

When we move into a world where chinzanos becomes the norm, we have to embrace the power of the chin. Not the physical body chin. But the chin of the chinzanos. The zanos is a different word, a different vortex for one to dive into.

1. Imagine the scene:

Two guys walking on a hill. One walking up. One walking down. As their eyes begin to meet as they pass in the middle, a gentle head nod, followed by a vibrant but elusive raise of the hand. They both utter the word (Not too loud. Not too quiet. Just loud enough)

"CHINZANOS."

2. Imagine a different scene

Two girls are grooving away in a funk filled jazz bar. The groove is heavy, phat and nasty. Their loving life. One of the girls orders two drinks. As they dance away and raise their glasses. They look into each others eyes, and at the clink of their drinks they utter the word together in unison,

"CHINZANOS."

3. Imagine a third scene

Dave: "uhh...Ed what does Chinzanos mean?"

Ed: "What do you think it means?"

Dave: "I don't know. I heard it was some sort of vermouth. One that has a subtle blend of herbs and spices."

Ed: "You're not right, but you're not wrong."

Dave: "Huh."

Ed: "I'm not saying no. But I'm not screaming yes."

Dave: "Ed you are not making any sense."

Ed: "Dave listen very closely."

Dave: "Okay."

Ed: "Chinzanos, Chinzanos, Chinzanos. It is what it is. It is what you want it to be."

fache-couture

French slang, which translated, means "bull's fashion" but basically equates to "hyper trendy" or overly trendy. Used when a person wishes to express distaste at the latest fashion trend/fad, because it seems that everyone has a certain item of clothing or is wearing it. This term is most frequently heard in Paris but is slowly spreading to other parts of France.

1. That Burberry scarf is so fache-couture.
2. That purple American Apparel hoodie is so fache-couture.

Glippy

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.”
