A description not limited to but primarily including behavioral mannerisms, idiomatic expressions, identity constructs and cultural affinities of Armenian individuals from anywhere in the Middle East, the Caucasus, Europe, Africa, North America and beyond.
Something "Haleb" tends to be unassociated with mainstream American societal norms, modern understanding of community, government and interpersonal relationships and the proper functioning of technology.
"Disco" component: due to the inability of the "Haleb" to musically modernize while simultaneously refusing to acknowledge and incorporate centuries of tradition and achievement by Ottoman Armenians as composers, elite instrumentalists and acclaimed vocalists, "Haleb" also contains a "disco" component that flourishes in communities throughout North America. In the "disco" component of the "Haleb", traditional music of pre-genocide Armenians is rejected as dangerously primitive at best and a reminder of genocidal victimhood at worst. Although never outright addressed, this underlying concept lies at the root of the "Haleb", leading to the "disco" component memorialized in synthesizer music and wildly dancing entertainers in high heels.
Pronounced: Haleb (Ha as in "rock" and leb as in "red")
Variants: "Heleb" (He as "red" and leb as in "red")
There is a "Haleb world", "Haleb people" and it is also acceptable to just say "Haleb".

Get the halbo mug.Elisa Haleying is a term used when someone does anything perfectly. When someone flawlessly does something, you can say that they "Elisa Hallied that task". Elisa is a kind hearted and morally driven individual that focusses on being the best version of herself and strives to help others in any way she can. Elisa treats everyone fairly and often brightens people's days. She is intelligent, ambitious, empathetic, talented, and kind. In essence, she is every good thing that a person can be. Moreover, Elisa always helps out her community and those she knows through volunteering and kind deeds. She even offers guidance and assistance to people that she doesn't know. Elisa does all this while being committed to countless activities such as work, school work, school clubs/activities and volunteering. If everyone were like Elisa Haley the world would have no famine, war or conflict. People should learn from Elisa to become an empathetic leader and pillar of their community. Elisa Haley is the perfect individual and deserves both success and happiness as she delivers these things to so many people. Therefore it is a great honour if some says you are "Elisa Haley" or "Elisa Hallied" a task.
Person 1: Dude, Craig has a 100% average while working 3 jobs. He even volunteers every other day to help the homeless and tutors students for free.
Person 2: Sounds like he's Elisa Haley.
Person 1: Yeah he's Elisa Haleying life right now.
