shark smoothing 

When you act like an idiot and somebody gets irrationally angry about it. The more irrationally angry, the smoother the shark.

For instance:
Man 1: "2+2 = 5"
Man 2: "You are such a fucking moron, you absolute buffoon. How can you be such an idiotic dumbass? What a fool you must be. I feel ashamed even reading this absolute failure of "math" you've disgraced this planet with. Go to hell"
Dude, shark smoothing is so fun! I shark smoothed a guy yesterday so hard his eyes were red from the frustration, and he was drenched in sweat.
When you go into a bar or club, apply superglue to where the jukebox is plugged into the wall, wait 5 mins, then max out the jukebox on continuous plays of the Rob Thomas + Santana classic collab 'Smooth' and then wait or scram depending on bravery.

Can also apply to playing the song repeatedly or DJing the song in such a way as one copy of the song is scratched in / beatmatched with another copy of the same song. The more inappropriate the social setting, the more successful the smoothing.
- 'Dude these wings are cold!'

- 'Fuck that we're smoothing the joint then...'

smoothening 

When EC2 Spot, Amazon's spare capacity compute at a discount, switched from bidding to max price. Cost-per-hour and instance interruptions both got smoother. Spot users were, and still are, as smooth as possible. Coined by an appreciative (and marginally hilarious) customer.
After The Smoothening, EC2 Spot customers saved even more on their cloud computing without even trying.

A slang term for GLP-1 medications(like Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, etc.), usually referring to their appetite-killing, weight-loss, or “I forgot to eat” effects rather than the medical details.

Usage:
* Often casual, ironic, or meme-y
* Can imply effortless weight loss, suppressed hunger, or being “powered by pharmaceuticals”

Notes:
Not a brand name—just shorthand for the whole GLP-1 wave. Frequently shows up in online jokes, gym talk, and group chats where people pretend they’re *totally* doing it naturally.
