critically caucasion 

adj. A person who is pale and/or so fair skinned they would burn under a lightbulb.

You may be critically caucasion if, say, it’s beautiful outside, you want to enjoy the day so you lather on the SPF, head outside for an a couple hours running errands/playing with your kids/ a drive with the sunroof open.

The next day you wake up in pain, it hurts to move, your skin is so red and sore. You’ve got some weird tan lines and all you did was go outside yesterday!
Victim: “I got the worst sunburn yesterday. I applied sunscreen, stayed in the shade, wore a hat. I’m in so much pain...what did I miss?”

Friend: “Well, you're critically caucasion. So there’s that...”

algorithmic critical mass

algorithmic critical mass — the Urban Dictionary principle that states: the more words you enter into the Urban Dictionary, the easier it is to add words to the Urban Dictionary.

This is especially true if you make the words you add refer to your previous words based on known linguistic principles. In this way the algorithm reflects aspects of your mind; and your mind becomes one with the algorithm as well.

There is something more frightening than artificial intelligence and that is computer intelligence that merges with the mind of humankind.

What happens when infinite computing power merges with the full potential of the brain. I don’t know because I waste my mind on adding Urban Dictionary entries instead of contemplating more weighty problems.

But you have got to admit that that is an awesome Afrofuturistic observation.
If you add enough word to the Urban Dictionary you will reach an algorithmic critical mass where the algorithm will reflect your mind; and, your mind will reflect the algorithm.

applied critical analysis 

Some new phrase PDEng administration decided to coin together in the hopes that the prospective students will consider the program a useful feature that teaches a complicated worded concept.

Widely confusing innocent students with its meaninglessness as no employer in the entire globe has never heard of the term.

A reason why U of Waterloo co-op rate is going downhill on a term-by-term basis, since companies regard its students as the new "Pennsylvania Dutch" who talk in their own "PDeng Speak." Now who's fault is that?

See Bukkake for details.
"wtf is applied critical analysis anyways? I googled it and the first result was PDEng. Think you're so innovative because you're inventing new phrases?"

Critical Theory

A university department from which you can get a degree in being offended.
Person 1: Hey, what the hell do you think you're doing?
Person 2: Hm?
P 1: I saw that, and I'm not going to take it quietly, for your information.
P 2: I'm sorry?
P 1: Yeah, I'll make you sorry. You looked at me. As a woman of size, I know that only means one thing - you're fat shaming me!
P 2: Uhhh... No, I...
P 1: Not only that, but I have problems with my hips because of my big, beautiful, healthy size, so you're also being a filthy ableist.
P 2: Huh? What's an ableist?
P 1: Look at you, standing there in all your white male heteronormativity, judging me silently with your eyes. I'll have you know that my great-great-grandmother on my father's side was half Cherokee.

P 2: Uh, that's cool...
P 1: No, that is not "cool". You don't get to tell me that's "cool" and fetishize me as an Indigenous person of color when you are a colonizing occupier on this, my sacred tribal land!!
P 2: Look, I think you are misunderstanding this whole thing...
P 1: "You"? "YOU"??? My pronouns most pointedly do not include the word "you"!! That is a form of gendered violence against me. And don't dare tell me it's not, because I have a Master's degree in Critical Theory and I'm wise to every single microaggression coming off of your hateful, oppressive person. Now get out of here before I call the police!
P 2. Okay, okay fine. Just finish making the latte I ordered and I'll take it to go.

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.
