normative burnout 

The ultimate fate of any meme that achieves total hegemony. With no countermeme to struggle against, the original meme fades away due to disuse. For example, if smoking were actually stamped out, with no smokers left, smoking would have room to eventually rise again since the antismoking meme would have been forgotten.
The urge to ban landmines underwent normative burnout one hundred years after all countries had disposed of their last mine stockpiles, causing some nations to begin experimenting with buried antipersonnel explosives fifty years thereafter. It was an idea old enough to seem new.

Normalised Kunis Unit 

This is a standardised unit of measurement for the hotness of a female, based on Mila Kunis being a 1, anything hotter being above 1 and anything not as hot being below. Also known as a NKU.

It has been discussed at length and there is no mathematical comparison between the 0-10 scale and the Nominal Kunis Unit scale. Save yourself the time and don't bother, it's mathematical anomaly.
"Emma Stone is a 0.7 NKU"

"Margot Robbie is definitely a 1.1 NKU"
"I disagree I think she is only a 0.9 Normalised Kunis Unit"

Training through deliberate practice that results in associating uncomfortable feelings, thoughts, and body sensations as routine and not something to be avoided.

noratize 

Noratize/noratized is defined as trying to move a bite of food or drink to your mouth and the food drops onto your chest, leaving a stain on your apparel. The origin stems from the traditional meaning of Nora, being elegant, light, or honorable. So to Noratize yourself is a wink to the elegance of spilling something on your clothing.
Wow, you really noratized your shirt with that pasta. Nice job.

Narrative 

Sometimes I think that the whole reason I met him was to discover that his wife was studying Counseling Psychology, if indeed that is the name of something a person might actually learn, with the great-grand-niece of Frida Kahlo. In the narrative of desire, perhaps what matters is not intimacy but it's counterpart: a new thought. In this sense, the lover is a necessary force, but rarely it's limit. I said: "Maybe this is the reason we met." Thinking of the yellow table, the third eye, the monkey in her arms. Dominant. I begged for an introduction, forgetting for a moment who I was. To him. For her. A cunt. Do cunts get to meet Frida Kahlo? In the flesh? Greeley, Colorado is where the slaughterhouses are. I'd like to visit that university town.
