northwest indiana

A mix of Chicago and the rest of Indiana in one. Often called The Region. Certain areas are more like Chicago and certain areas are more like the rest of Indiana. To people in Northwest Indiana, Indianapolis is in the south. This part of Indiana doesn't fit in really and sorta stands alone. Many Chicagoians hate people from here because they claim to know about the city and its struggles. The rest of Indiana is baffled by how different northwest Indiana is.
Facebook poster from Chicago:The people in northwest Indiana need to stop acting like they're from Chicago.
Facebook poster from another part of Indiana: Those people in northwest Indiana are basically Chicagoians.

Indiana University Northwest 

The biggest piece of shit of a school. Shouldn't be considered a college. A complete joke. The advisers don't help you at all. They tell you it's a good school but it's absolutely terrible. In the middle of a the ghetto (Gary IN) but they insist that it's safe. yeah bull shit that's why there were at least 4 assaults on campus this past year. Don't ever go here if you are in this area and have to stay home for a year I highly suggest going to Purdue north central, Purdue cal or even Ivy tech over this pathetic excuse of a college.
(real situation)
Student: "What classes do i need to take this semester that will help me achieve my goal to graduate as this major at Indiana University Northwest?"

adviser: "i can't really help you with that you need to figure that out on your own."

... really why the fuck are you an adviser

Indiana University Northwest 

A cheap college education in the ghetto (a.k.a. Gary, IN) with relatively easy classes and professors who don't care as much as they should at the main campuses, yet still considered as a Indiana University degree.
Person 1-- Hey I'm going to Indiana University Northwest next semester!

Person 2-- Fuck you, I'm going to B-town and get a better education!

Person 1-- At least I pay less than you do in all 4 years at B-town and get easier classes..

Person 2-- Stfu you ghetto hick.

Stealthie 

when you're holding up your phone and making faces at it, as though you are taking a selfie, but you're really taking a picture of the person across from you or the wall or anything else that seems interesting but you don't want to be caught dead taking a picture of.

This action is often made more convincing by wiggling the eyebrows or opening the mouth, to pretend you're trying to get a Snapchat filter to work.
FRIEND A: "Did you just take a stealthie of me?"

FRIEND B (turning phone around): "no I was just using snapchat's new filter, see?"

The grindset is a contemporary ideology of self-exploitation disguised as strength, deeply tied to the aesthetics of the “sigma male” and to new digital forms of patriarchy. It promotes the idea that human worth depends on productivity, economic success, absolute emotional control, and the ability to work endlessly, turning vulnerability, rest, community, and tenderness into signs of weakness. Beneath its rhetoric of discipline and power often lies a profound inability to relate healthily to pain, fragility, and human interdependence.
“That’s the grindset, brother. While weak men sleep and complain, sigma males stay disciplined, work in silence, suppress emotions, and build power while everyone else wastes time chasing comfort.”
