Coomer's Riposte

Phenomenon where a person has to be subject to Ignominy to make someone else look bad for knowing about NSFW content by name.

In my group chat the other day, my friend tried to make fun of me for knowing a porn actor's name in front of everyone but fell for the Coomer's Riposte.

"How do you know who Mia Khalifa is?"
"Wait, how do YOU know who that is?"

Ripster Scale

Q: How Are Fart Magnitudes Measured?
A: The Ripster Scale

The magnitude of most fartquakes is measured on the Ripster scale, invented by Toots McGee in 1957. The Ripster magnitude is calculated from the amplitude of the largest seismic cheek flapping recorded for the fartquake, no matter what type of wave was the strongest.

At the (fill in the blank mexican restaurant) the other night, I was standing at the urinal draining the main when a 9.2...possibly up to 9.5 Ripster scale fartquake exploded in the stall adjacent the urinal. I cut the stream off prematurely and headed for the exit with a texas-sized pee stain in my drawers.

hipster ripster

Paying too much for things that help create a hipster image.

Person 1: "I just spent $10 a grande skinny half sweet mocha latte with soy from Starbucks."
Person 2: "That's such a hipster ripster."
Person 1: "Living authentic isn't cheap, now I have to edit photos on my $3000 Mac."
