Consonant Cliff

A situation in Wordle in which the player has correctly established all but one letter, leaving a missing consonant. The cliff occurs when there are more consonants that could work than remaining guesses, leaving the player helpless and in fear of going over the “consonant cliff”
Hey alright! I got SHA*E on my first guess! So it’s gotta be SHADE…nope. Okay, SHAPE!….hmm, SHAME? GODDAMN IT! Here we go, SHALE! FUCK.

Last guess….SHARE??? It’s fucking SHAKE?? ! Fell to my death off the consonant cliff!!!

lost consonant

Mistakenly omitting a consonant from a word, resulting in a sentance or phrase taking on a different meaning altogether. I first saw it used in a book by Graham Rawle, but I think it's a generic term.

Wadsworth Constant

The Wadsworth Constant is the fundamental idea that the true meaning of a video, conversation, or comment approaches importance after approximately 30% of it has been skipped over.
The above definition, for instance, has 180 characters. After applying the Wadsworth Constant, we skip over 52 characters (29%). The definition now reads,
"the true meaning of a video, conversation, or comment approaches importance after approximately 30% of it has been skipped over."
