A derisive term for young women who ascribe to a generic aesthetic defined primarily by bleached-blonde highlights, tube tops, short shorts, wedge heels, and an idiotic facial expression. The term developed as a way of describing a character on the now-defunct soap opera Passions, who was a boyfriend-stealing mermaid who had taken on fully human form. Later, the influence of SNL's "Lothar of the Hill People" came to bear on the common use of Merwhore, as people began singing "Merwhore, of the Mer-People" whenever a common merwhore was sighted.
"MERWHORE, of the Merrrrrr People!"
"That sorority slut in the tube top is a total merwhore."
"Only merwhores bleach their hair that particular shade of blonde."
The use of the word "blue" to refer to sexually explicit content was first recorded in Scotland in 1824. "Blue" meant "lewd" because prostitutes dressed in blue gowns.
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.

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.”
Pajama casual is a term used when working from home and preparing for a video conference. All business above the waist and your pajama pants down below.
