honest work 

Work that provides a living. Working 40 hours a week in an honest job pays for the following: Food, a path to pay for a house, hygiene and necessities, vehicular transportation, money to cover that insurance, health insurance and Dental are the basic standards of honest work. Dedicating your body to another's profit should never be rewarded with struggling. If your job doesn't cover the sentence you are an expendable slave. Nothing more, nothing less.
"If America was so fucking star spangled awesome then why can't they take care of their people?" Johnny asked his Dad

"Well Johnny, America is the biggest bully on the playground. The biggest bully bows to nobody, and lies to himself about his problems. Bullies like exercising their power so how do they keep it? They starve their young population into believing the only honest work left is to be a soldier by taking away all of the honest work."

"But Dad how do you beat the bully? There has to be a way for people to have honest work without being a soldier."

"You don't son. The bully has to come to terms with himself and admit his problems, or you team up with everyone else on the playground to take him down. The fun part about that is beating up the bully IS HONEST WORK!"

An Honest Day's Work 

Something the well-to-do love to brag about doing while they are driven around in their limousines visiting the factories they own. Meanwhile, they pay the real workers scraps, and brainwash them into thinking backbreaking work will get them rich someday as well.

Lawyer#2: Yessir I worked hard to get to where i'm at, even though I spent half of law school, which was paid for by my parents, in cocktail bars.

A slang term for GLP-1 medications(like Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, etc.), usually referring to their appetite-killing, weight-loss, or “I forgot to eat” effects rather than the medical details.

Usage:
* Often casual, ironic, or meme-y
* Can imply effortless weight loss, suppressed hunger, or being “powered by pharmaceuticals”

Notes:
Not a brand name—just shorthand for the whole GLP-1 wave. Frequently shows up in online jokes, gym talk, and group chats where people pretend they’re *totally* doing it naturally.
“I’m not dieting, I’m just on that glippy.”
“Ever since the glippy hit, food feels optional.”
