sycophantasy

sycophantasy v. ˈsɪkəfənt tə-z

the use of a known unrealistic or highly improbable supposition to flatter, win favor, or manipulate from individuals wielding influence on the presumption that knowingly lying will yield benevolence from this pathological state through conceit
(from Latin sȳcophanta, a slanderer, swindler, from Greek sukophantēs, literally: the person showing a fig, apparently referring to the fig sign used in making an accusation, from sukon fig + phainein to show; sense probably developed from ``accuser'' to ``informer, flatterer'')
His repeated unsubstantiated accusations about rampant liberal violence was born out of his sycophantasy that it would embolden and motivate the conservative protesters to act with unjustified "in kind" responses.

sycophantasize

To daydream or fantasize about being associated with someone well-known, popular, or powerful, by spreading exaggerations of alleged good traits of one’s hero, and by circulating lies regarding their rivals or enemies.
He would often sycophantasize about enabling a wealthy or well-known, narcissistic individual; he rehearsed in his mind, the bowing fawning and false flattery, needed to elevate his idol, choosing among his hero’s adversaries, whom he could most profit from spreading misleading rumors about them.

Brewsterphiliac Sycophantosis 

"Brewsterphiliac Sycophantosis" is a rare chronic medical condition resulting from prolonged exposure to individuals exhibiting Machiavellian tendencies. Affected individuals develop an obsessive affinity for a specific person due to their manipulative influence. The condition's etiology involves a complex interplay of neurobiological and psychological factors. Prolonged interactions with calculated manipulation gradually prime neural circuitry associated with reward, motivation, and bonding.

As Brewsterphiliac Sycophantosis progresses, affected individuals experience unwavering devotion toward the manipulative person. This devotion is characterized by cognitive distortions and a loss of critical judgment, leading to belief in the idolized individual's benevolence and superiority.

Diagnosing and treating Brewsterphiliac Sycophantosis poses challenges due to its rarity and complexity. Therapeutic interventions involve cognitive-behavioral therapy, psychoeducation, and targeted interventions to restore independent thinking.

Named after Bobby Brewster, who manipulated Tobias Faulkner, Brewsterphiliac Sycophantosis exemplifies the significance of their experiences in understanding this condition.
If Toby continues to spend time with Bobby, it's highly likely that he will develop Brewsterphiliac Sycophantosis. At that point, it will be extremely challenging to rescue him from the grips of the condition.

Sycophants 

I'm not one of your sycophants bitch. And the only shit-talking that is changing people's lives forever is going in this direction: ME👉The World👉YOU. That's how this works. It doesn't circle back around. YOU don't tell me anything. This is an entirely linear interaction.
Hym "I'm not one of your sycophants. Don't lump me in with your fan-boy. I'm not going anywhere to listen to you. Where are you going to listen to me? Is it HERE? Are you coming HERE? FOR this? YES YOU ARE BITCH! I can't even see you! But I KNOW you're there! Don't I!? I can see the stupid look on your fucking face as you're reading it too. How do I know it's stupid? Because it's ALWAYS stupid! You have a stupid face."

Back when I lived in upstate new york 

A meaningless, unimpressive, self-serving introduction. An indicator that the story about to be shared will be pointless and dumb.
Back when I lived in upstate new york, I also had to park on the street - on two occasions, we got enough snow, mixed with just the right plowing, that my car was lifted off the ground from so much snow being jammed underneath it.

Acronym, meaning Too Long Didn't Understand
Similar to TLDR
Sister: This meeting was to discuss the rough draft of my essay, where we discussed the subsidiary questions I added in my rough draft. We also discussed the relationship between my main title and the real-life situations I chose to use in my essay. We discussed the structure of my essay as well, specifically the Math AOK section and how it relates to the contradiction of the title. This second meeting was particularly helpful in discussing the implications of my essay claims and how to apply the title across various areas of knowledge. There were many sections of the essay that could have been cut down in wordiness and the ways of knowing required further and more in-depth analysis.

Me: Woah! TLDU!
