A popular photographic concept on Instagram, involving all shots and images in a purely monochromatic theme, using a black-and-white tone (hence the "mono", from "monochrome") to add contrast, perspective, and/r create an entirely new abstract concept to the capture. However, it isn't simply a "black-and-white" shot. It is intended to be used for greater artistic effect. Invented by a guy named Josh, from Singapore.
#monoart is taking over Instagram by storm. You can put "monoart" on anything to make any ordinary object seem more ideational.

Derogatory term for an individual of such uni-dimensional nature that they are unable to express anything other than a vague sense of satisfaction at all times. May claim to be 'happy', but will actually be unaware of what this emotion constitutes. Liable to be immensely repressed, and may well become alcoholic and/or psychotic in time.

Common examples include: Jack Johnson; presenters of morning television shows; Brick Tamlin; that person in your office who's permanently happy.
Them: "Jack Johnson's music is awesome, its so chillaxed."
You : "Jesus... whats wrong with you?"
Them: "Nothing, his music makes me happy."
