Film Bro 

Someone who proclaims to have an all-encompassing knowledge of filmmaking but whose main personality traits are making 4 hour long YouTube videos about why The Last Jedi was worse than the Holocaust and shitting on Ghostbusters 2016. The Film Bro (correctly) dislikes the cynicism present in both films, but wastes everyone’s time by reminding us that it's shit years after it was fashionable, often in a long-winded and repetitive fashion.
Mark, my self proclaimed "Film Bro" friend, claims to be a true cinephile, but when we hang out all he talks about is how Rian Johnson is evil incarnate. He's never actually asked me and the boys if we could go see a movie, either.

Brought to public attention by Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein in the book on the fall of Richard Nixon, All The President’s Men, ratfucker was Nixon’s term for a political operative who sows chaos among opponents; an agent provocateur. It is thought to have originated among campus political rivalries at USC, and seems to have some usage in the US military.
Along with Nixon’s other ratfuckers, Roger Stone caused fights at otherwise peaceful Democratic Party protests to generate a false narrative that the Democrats were violent and dangerous.
