jervais
A jervais (aka a jervon) is a pyhsical and vocal reaction on a whim after some particularly silly and jovial event has transpired.
Specifically, a jervais is a gesture with the forearm beginning parallel to the body and moving across the body culminating in a single arm folding.
Whilst this arm action has occured, the performer of the jervais must contort his face exceptionally insanely (semi closing the eyes) and whilst opening his mouth audaciously speak the words "ehhhh jervais"
It is possible to perform a jervon without the aforementioned hand movement and go straight to the vocal embodiment of the sentiment. (if you're lazy, in a confined space or being subtle)
Also, for subtlety, a gentle arm swing will suffice in certain circumstances.

Jervaissance
A term used to describe the events of 15 July 2023, when cabaret superstar and X Factor icon Holly Jervis returned to perform at a pub in St. Albans and the subsequent social media reaction of an outpouring of love and support. It was a big day for Jervinators, after the events of Shrove Jervis the previous year and subsequent Anti-Jervism. It signalled the end of the war, and Holly Jervis was trending on Twitter.

doorwall
A door wall is a sliding-glass door or patio door. The term is yet another example of banal Michigan vernacular, where in the residents latch on to company names, trademark names, marketing terms and product names from local companies. The terms become embedded in the local vocabulary and eventually become accepted as actual valid words and phrases. In this case the term comes from Wallside Windows in Taylor, MI (a large window manufacturer), where 'door wall' is their created word for sliding-glass door.

Frothability
The measure of an emotional and over zealous consumer in an upwardly charging market, also known as a bull market. It's characterized by rising asset prices, increased investor confidence, and favorable growth in the markets, bro.

pod person
A person pretending to be something they aren't, or an impostor. This is inferred because of the old alien movies where alien pods appear on earth and the "pod people" dispose of the humans and slowly reproduce the bodies, pretending to be humans.
The pod person was pretending to be my father, but I knew that he was an alien when he acted differently than my father ever would have.
