edgecore

A nickname given to edgy bands like Linkin Park, Breaking Benjamin, Skillet, Evanscence, Papa Roach, Three Days Grace, System of a Down, Godsmack, Taproot, Limp Bizkit, P.O.D, Disturbed, Alien Ant Farm, Drowning Pool, and 30 Seconds to Mars to name a few.
Most of the times Edgecore bands are Nu Metal but can also be Alternative Rock/Metal, Rap Rock, and others like that.

It has similar characteristics as Emo music like sining about depression and stuff like that, but they are incredibly different genres.
It can also be given to only one song such as Radiohead’s Creep or Meg & Dia’s Monster.
Edgecore has nothing to do with Straight Edge.

Serial Monogamist

Someone who jumps from one relationship immediately into another one.

Serial monogamists can not stand to be alone and often suffer from vast commitment and insecurity issues.

Because they jump into relationships immediately after the previous one has ended, serial monogamists typically don't take the time to reflect on their behavior or why their previous relationships failed; thus, they end up making the same relationship mistakes over and over again.

Person 1: Damn, Dustin already has a new girlfriend?! It's only been two weeks since he broke up with his fiance! I think he's a sociopath.

Person 2: No, he's a serial monogamist...
