What it means for something to exist.
What does it mean for that chair in your room to exist? Does it exist because it is there in a physical form, because the material is there? Or does it exist because of its function, because the chair is there to be sat upon? What it means for something to exist is ontology, and both of these examples would work.

generative ontology 

The hypothesis that religion emerged as a paradigm to protect consciousness from destroying language.
Generative ontology argues that religion (narrative ego) and all mythologies are a promise to the consciousness by the super-conscious (mind) that language will one day be destroyed.

social ontology

A cyclical time theory of linearity in which asymmetry causes incompleteness (inequality); and incompleteness causes discontinuity; and discontinuity recursively causes asymmetry.

That is to say, from mediums emerge outcomes, from outcomes emerge catastrophes and from catastrophes recurse to form new mediums beginning the cycle of linearity once again.

Also called ontologistics.
Social ontology is an ontologistical iteration of the tri-functional hypothesis.

Utility beer 

Utility beer is the beer you keep around for the day-to-day moments when beer is a necessity to assist in pedestrian activities (golf, plumbing, yardwork, babysitting, staff meetings, Zoom calls). For the beer snob it is the beer you save for neighbors when they drop in at 3 p.m. on a Tuesday. It is differentiated from the actual high-end beer you save for special events, holidays, and special tastings.
Person 1: Dave, did you bring along those hazy craft IPA's so we could drink while cleaning Lyle's pool?
