The act of discarding the first square of toilet paper while in a bathroom. This removes the outside chance that the last patron touched that piece while removing toilet paper for his own use. This becomes especially important when using a public restroom. Also can be referred to as s-squared.
"Hey man, you better practice safety-squaring when you're done in there."
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.”
