Planet Earth's fastest field game. Originated in Ireland and is over 2000 years old - it shows up in ancient Irish legends. Slightly similar to Field Hockey but played mostly in the air rather than just on the ground. Players can catch the ball, run it for a few steps, or run unlimited steps with the ball balanced on the end of the stick. The target is a set of H-posts like in Rugby but with a net on the bottom section like in Soccer. You get one point for putting the ball over the bar (known as a point) and three for putting it in the net (known as a goal). Physical contact is allowed. Helmets are optional.

fache-couture

French slang, which translated, means "bull's fashion" but basically equates to "hyper trendy" or overly trendy. Used when a person wishes to express distaste at the latest fashion trend/fad, because it seems that everyone has a certain item of clothing or is wearing it. This term is most frequently heard in Paris but is slowly spreading to other parts of France.

Glippy

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.”
“That summer body? Yeah, glippy assisted.”
