Apr 30 Word of the Day
A buzz word being used to refer to creators and influencers forming or encouraging unhealthy relationships with their fans. Usually used in the context of young audiences feeling they have a relationship with the influencer due to the huge amount of the influencer’s content they consume. The influencer in question, however, is unaware of the fan’s existence other than the general knowledge of having fans. Common examples include Dream and his stans. These relationships are exacerbated by the influencers confirming they have more than a creator-to-viewer relationship.
The word is circulating due to various YouTube essays about the phenomenon using the word, and therefore people who enjoy complaining about influencers repeating what they heard in the video in any comments section they can find.

A person who tries their hardest to mooch off of friends, family, etc. This act of 'skimping' may be completed in various different ways such as forcing people to give you rides, asking for people to pay for you and just never paying them back, and going to someone's house and eating all of their food. Skimps are notoriously known for never saying thank you. Someone is NOT a skimp if people OFFER these services and are happy to do it.
Me: Jesus H. Christ, that kid Ryan is SUCH a skimp. He made me drive him across town to get food and then had me drop him off at his friend's house and didn't invite me.
You: Shit. Did he say thank you at least?
Me: Nahhh. Does he ever say thank you?
You: Never. Your girlfriend Chiara is a skimp too right?
Me: Are you kidding? I have no problem driving her around. In fact im happy to do it. She's not a skimp at all. Also she repays me sexually
