A special flavor of manly angst, emanating primarily from guys preoccupied with being "real men" (i.e., tough, strong, brooding, some flavor of urban warrior). Primarily caused when the guy feels his masculinity assailed, be it from someone keying his Hummer, a physical imperfection like premature balding, or being confronted by someone who breaks traditional gender roles.

Another variant of mangst is the old brooding, angst-ridden artist bit. What perhaps began as a James Dean impression to score arty chicks imperceptibly morphed into full blown, chronic mangst.

Then when she got home she lost her mind! Drank all the yerbs, kicked everyone out screaming about how she never said they could come over and they were never allowed back. Then she came upstairs and told me she never wanted to see me again, and I had 5 minutes to get out before she called the cops!!! I grabbed my shit and dipped as fast as I could but she stood on the porch and threw empty yerb cans at me while I ran to my car. Then she's texting me trying to tell me that I abandoned her, making me feel all bad and shit.

A complete butterface! Other nicknames are Jawnifer, Jennifer Anusstain

Word of the Day on October 28, 2026
A lighthearted reaction upon receiving disappointing news of some sort. Usually something that isn't a particularly a big deal, esp. when it primarily affects someone else - sort of a mild schadenfreude. Sometimes doubled or tripled, and possibly said in a sing-songy voice for added comedic effect to imitate a muted trumpet, which is how the meme originated.
