Questmandment

A statement, politely worded as a question, that conveys a clear command. Typically used in email to a lazyass peer or colleague you require something from, and hence are forced to be nice to. It’s effective use not only prevents bitching and whining that they don’t answer to you (aka the “you’re-not-the-boss-of-me” effect) but forces them to get off their ass and actually do their job without looking like a total bastard. (Note: Best used when the email includes a cc to the lazyass’s manager.)
Questmandment (used in email):

Kelly, we have a Production line down because they don’t have the metallic labels I asked you about last week. Would it be possible for you to get these added to our floorstock ASAP.

Questmas 

A contraction of “Meta Quest” referring to Meta’s line of VR Consoles titled the Quest series, and “Christmas” the holiday. Questmas refers to the phenomenon where every Christmas, thousands of parents buy their children VR headsets as presents, which they use unsupervised to join online VR games such as VR chat. As a result, the amount of children in these games skyrockets for the following 1-2 months, and remains permanently higher thereafter. Questmas is foreseen as a tragic event for of-age VR users.
“Hey bro, Questmas is coming up in a week. Let’s enjoy VR while we can before all those parents buy their kids headsets and our games are full of squeakers!”

“Shit’s tragic.”

Serial Monogamist 

Someone who jumps from one relationship immediately into another one.

Serial monogamists can not stand to be alone and often suffer from vast commitment and insecurity issues.

Because they jump into relationships immediately after the previous one has ended, serial monogamists typically don't take the time to reflect on their behavior or why their previous relationships failed; thus, they end up making the same relationship mistakes over and over again.
Person 1: Damn, Dustin already has a new girlfriend?! It's only been two weeks since he broke up with his fiance! I think he's a sociopath.

Person 2: No, he's a serial monogamist...
