Majority Privilege 

What white privilege should actually be called. Could also be referred to as common sense. Describes the naturally occurring phenomenon in which being apart of the majority has at least some measurable advantage. Applies to any majority group, anywhere, at any point in time. Whites have an advantage in North America and Europe in a similar way that Asians have an advantage in China, Hispanics have an advantage in Columbia, Muslims have an advantage in Iran, Jews have an advantage in Israel, conservatives have an advantage in Birmingham, liberals have an advantage in Portland, etc.
My majority privilege seemed to evaporate the moment I landed in Liberia.

Majority Cool 

A ruling applied when two or more extremely cool people like something that may be questionable

majority decision 

The best excuse for stupid choices.
Chris: "So Jake, why are we going into the eerie Aztec temple before we know how to contact the park ranger?"
Jake: "Majority decision."

Majority Person 

Someone who, in every aspect, conforms to the majority of people in their country. If the majority of people in their country have black hair, so do they. If the majority enjoy rock music, so do they. Basically, odds are you know at least one, unless you live in a statistic-ruining place, like a wacky college or some kind of commune.
Take me, for example. I'm a white male who voted for Obama. I have brown eyes and black hair. I'm of average height and weight, enjoy football, and have a desk job. I live in IL, in the United States. (pretty average state if you ask me). When I get out of college, I want to be a teacher. I even honestly enjoyed Owl City's Fireflies, and before that I liked Kanye, and before that I fell in love with 50 cent. (the majority of rap fans are white) I'm a majority person.

Majority Rules 

Elusive 'rule' or 'law' that can be invoked to carry through the will of the majority. The last word in all decision making processes, whether this be in persuading others to go on a lovely trip to the park, or something altogether more serious. If the majority of people agree about something, e.g. going to the park, and someone says 'Majority Rules' then everyone must do what the majority want. In the same way, can also be used to prove or disprove facts (however ridiculous), in that if the majority agree that something is true/untrue then it is true/untrue - the 'rule' is thus useful for winning arguments where you know others will agree with you.
Arguably pretty much just democracy distilled to the level of petty playground rivalry.
I couldn't be sacked going to the park man, but Mike and that Majority Rules'd me so I had to go.

Majority Apparent 

A group of people in a country that usually aren't representative of the majority, but are so loud and obnoxious when they voice their opinions that it becomes quite easy for someone to mistake them for the majority. They appear to be the majority because they are usually extremely angry when conversing about socio-political issues, and usually protest in very large groups as well. Despite the fact that they're extremely outspoken and annoying, they rarely influence any kind of significant change, much less a positive one.
Far left liberals, punk teenagers, socialists, anarchists, etc, are all part of the Majority Apparent.

No Surprises Wedding

A "No Surprises Wedding," or NSW, is a wedding invitation designation that tells attendees that there can be no unplanned announcements, engagements, events or speeches at the wedding - all actions must be pre-approved by the couple. Anyone who performs an unapproved "surprise" will be asked to leave the wedding early.

This designation comes from Reddit, where so many stories of bad wedding behavior indicated a need to communicate expectations for the wedding behavior of attendees.
You are cordially invited to the nuptials of Brian and Tom on October 31 at noon.

Please note that this wedding is child-free (under 10) and a No Surprises Wedding (NSW). Reach out to wedding planner Sami Smith to request approvals or exceptions; please note that exceptions will be rare. Limited child care for under-10s will be available. All approvals will be noted and included in planning. Unapproved, or surprise exceptions, will result in guests being asked to leave.

EBK stands for "Elite Ball Knowledge." 1 In internet slang, "ball knowledge" originally referred to a deep understanding of football/soccer or basketball, but it has evolved into a broader term for having a highly sophisticated, deep, or niche understanding of any specific topic (such as music, movies, or subcultures).
Person A: "That scene was a direct homage to an unreleased 1982 Japanese indie film."
Person B: "Wow, EBK."

Texas is categorized as a swing state in presidential elections, but has voted for Republicans more times than for Democrats in recent history. As such, as demographics change political alignments, some Democrats believe that Texas will vote blue, or Democratic, due to their Hispanic and African American voters, who often align themselves with the Democratic Party's liberal wing.

Blexas has been cited as possible in the upcoming decades, but only if Democrats continue to win the Hispanic vote in bigger margins.
Democrat 1: What is your prediction for the 2024 presidential election?
Democrat 2: Well uh, Blexas!
Democrat 1: You've been saying that since 2008 though.
