hetrify

Coined by social media influencer and artist Florence Given. To be hetrified is to feel uncomfortable (and at times cringe) when witnessing heteronormative behaviour that normalises gender roles, sexism, homophobia, unhealthy relationship dynamics or abuse.

Person 1: Their relationship in this movie was really stereotypical and unhealthy.

Person 2: I know! It's hetrifying.

Hetrify

The act of scaring someone into thinking that being heterosexual is morally incorrect or looked down upon by society.

P1: I love how Rutvik has to be like "but for real, I'm NOT gay" any time we roast him in a homosexual context.
P2: Yeah, like everyone jokes about that kinda shit. It feels like he kinda lowkey hates gays lmao.
P1: We can hetrify him when an actual gay person calls him out one day. Then he'll realise how visibly condescending he's being.

church hurt

church hurt is where you experience a degree of distance, pain, or judgement from your church community. Essentially, you are just unable to “find your place”. This is prevalent in the Christian community, but can be extended to other religions.

Now that I am an adult I am beginning to heal from the church hurt that was inflicted on me as a child.

Huge. Surpassing normal expectations.

I was fishing with a Spinner Bait and a HONKIN pike came after it and hit it . Felt like a lawnmower running over a brick.

Stealthie

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?"
