Words you can keep
An intriguing phenomenon coined by Swifties that occurs when someone has openly disrespected or wronged Taylor Swift. According to swiftologists, a swirl of karma powered by Swift's reputation envelops the offender and drains the luck out of them, redirecting it under her control. It is known to cause serious and sometimes irreversible negative outcomes, such as accidents, decreased popularity, and a bigger chance of tanking overall.
Taylor unleashed an incredible wave of tayvoodoo on Katy Perry back then, and even though they reconciled in recent years, Perry still hasn't been able to recover in her career, as noted by her last 2 albums flopping.
