A person who is in love with the 80's, especially fanny packs. He goes out of his way to purchase vintage fanny packs in neon colors to flaunt them while he's jogging around the neighborhood. His friends think he's eccentric, but everyone else just plain weird, especially his his fanny packs are eye blinding and huge.
I'm so glad Johnny is a fanny packer. It makes it easy to spot him at night when he's jogging.
I'm sick and tired of Johnny being such a fanny packer. It's so embarrassing when he wears his 80's accessory every time we go jogging as a group.
when you're holding up your phone and making faces at it, as though you are taking a selfie, but you're really taking a picture of the person across from you or the wall or anything else that seems interesting but you don't want to be caught dead taking a picture of.
This action is often made more convincing by wiggling the eyebrows or opening the mouth, to pretend you're trying to get a Snapchat filter to work.
FRIEND A: "Did you just take a stealthie of me?"
FRIEND B (turning phone around): "no I was just using snapchat's new filter, see?"
The grindset is a contemporary ideology of self-exploitation disguised as strength, deeply tied to the aesthetics of the “sigma male” and to new digital forms of patriarchy. It promotes the idea that human worth depends on productivity, economic success, absolute emotional control, and the ability to work endlessly, turning vulnerability, rest, community, and tenderness into signs of weakness. Beneath its rhetoric of discipline and power often lies a profound inability to relate healthily to pain, fragility, and human interdependence.
“That’s the grindset, brother. While weak men sleep and complain, sigma males stay disciplined, work in silence, suppress emotions, and build power while everyone else wastes time chasing comfort.”
