self-interest 

Wanting what is best for everyone, including oneself, not, as commonly believed, what is best only for oneself.
He knew it was in his self-interest to help as many people as possible thrive and prosper, in comfort and safety, that only then could he ultimately thrive and prosper.

Self-interest 

And when do THEY forgo THEIR self interest for ME, Jordan? That's what makes your entire worldview horseshit. It never goes the other way. It NEVER takes the form of YOU (or ANYONE for that matter) forgoing THEIR self-interest for ME.
Hym "And when does it work in the other direction? Who around me needs to forgo their own narrow self-interest? Noone? Then why should I be expected to? 'BeCaUsE yOu ShOuLd Be SeLflEsS! AgAiNsT yOuR wIlL eVeN!' You're NOT THAT Jordan. That's what makes you a charlatan. AND a liar. You don't actually ACT like you believe any of the things you say and all of your colleges have proven they DON'T actually belive any of the things you say. Your entire career has been dealing with poor victimized women and malevolent men and now YOU'RE THE SAVIOR! THE WHITE PROPHET COMETH! WOOO!" 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏🙌🙌🙌👏👏👏

I mean I guess bro

a word of expression to when you give up on comprehending someone's words of ignorance, stupidity, absurdity or are too exhausted to formulate a proper response.

Commonly seen in TikTok comment sections in replies to lazy attempts at humor, overconfidentally incorrect statement, or an over-the-top comment or when someone completely misses the mark on something.
"actually... incorrect statement, hope this helps!"
"I mean I guess bro"

abandonware 

n. software that is no longer sold or supported by the original publisher / developer, often found as free downloads on the internet because it cannot be obtained elsewhere. Not legal, but often seen as morally acceptable because the company that made it is no longer selling the title, nor releasing it as freeware, therefore abandonware is "keeping the game alive", so to speak.
Doom II is not abandonware because id still sells it, while The Incredible Machine is not sold, therefore is abandonware.
