Current Year 

A term, often used in a derogatory manner, to refer to comments and rebuttals about about the current year and the actual or expected state of being for a society.

The phrase has its origins on 4chan, with satire of John William Oliver and his use of the current year as a straw man argument.

Person A: How am I privileged again? I was born to a single mother and a dad who ran away never to pay child support, only to graduate high-school as the recession peaked.

Person B: (Jokingly) You are white and male. You have no argument and should understand this, it's current year.

It's (add current year here) 

The annoying buzzphrase people use to rally people to their ideology without doing any work.

Person 1 - Why should we all be forced to believe in so and so?
Person 2 - Because It's (add current year here)!
Person 1 - What does that have to do with anything?

/currentyear/ 

A word used derisively to describe one's incredulity at some specific modern-day fact or event in society that:
1) No one asked for
2) Would have been viewed as totally ridiculous ten years ago
3) Is still totally ridiculous

"Yes, I know that bobby marrying his transgender goat sounds weird, but let's not forget that it's /currentyear/."

Person A: Did you hear that dogs are now considered racist?
Person B: No, but I knew that they would be, since every new day is peak /currentyear/.

schmegegge 

Yiddish slang word meaning bullshit, baloney, hogwash, nonsense, crock of shit or hot air.

I don't buy the schmegegge about Morty sleeping with Moira.
His version of the story was pure schmegegge.
The whole schmegegge was made up to get Liz a little bit of attention.
