2020's (the pure 20's) (the 20's )

This is a pure and beautiful decade, with April of 2021 being a beautiful and pleasant pure month. 2020-2029 are the years in this decade, although some say 2021-2029. Either way, it is a clean and new decade to be in, unique from the decades before and after, just as any decade. 2021 is the pure year, especially spring of 2021. Currently, there is so much potential for this decade, year, next month, and this spring, as they have either just started, or not started yet at all. But unlike with others, the potential is made conscious on this site. So far, this doesn't seem to be the case with any other decade, year, month, or season. Not even in history has there ever been a "pure" decade, yet there has been the naughty 90's, the roaring 20's, etc. Even in ancient history there hasn't been such a time. Perhaps we can call it the purifying 20's.
Person: "Ah, a clean and new fresh decade to live through. A new time. Its the 2020's (the pure 20's) (the 20's )"

The Roaring 20's 

A period in American history where if you had money, all you had to do was invest in stock, kick back, and enjoy the ride. The street was swarming with gangsters, the Klan was lynching blacks, and the economy prospered. What more could you ask for?

It was THE TIME to be living, that is if you weren't poor, of course. In that case, you would just be picking cotton and shitting in your front yard. If you want to know what it was like, read The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald.
My Great Great Grandpa: "Boy life sure does suck ass, picking cotton like a skunkape all day."

Rich Prick: "Oh cheer up you dirt poor pussy! It's The Roaring 20's!"

Randal: Tell me about it, in CaliWali I used to buy the hot and ready for five bucks. Now the Hot Carl is $23.00. You roll the dice by ordering it, sometimes there are burnt patches with no cheese, sauce, or pepperoni. Wait time is thirty minutes, even when the joint is empty.

Chuck: No kiddin', The Soaring 20's got us paying tips just fer standin' at the counter.

The Abhorring 20's 

The new roaring 20's spanning from 2020 - 2029. We are already four years in, and it has already been very bad. Things that happened this decade are: COVID-19 pandemic, global recession, 9% inflation, high price increases in everything, Russo-Ukrainian War, Israeli-Palestinian Conflict, January 6th riots, terrible presidential candidates, widespread corruption, Jury Movement in Bangladesh, increasing wildfires across the world, climate change, global recession, extreme political polarization, attempted assassination of Donald Trump, a discouraged generation, and there seems to be no light at the end of the tunnel so far.
We're in the abhorring 20's.

doorwall 

A door wall is a sliding-glass door or patio door. The term is yet another example of banal Michigan vernacular, where in the residents latch on to company names, trademark names, marketing terms and product names from local companies. The terms become embedded in the local vocabulary and eventually become accepted as actual valid words and phrases. In this case the term comes from Wallside Windows in Taylor, MI (a large window manufacturer), where 'door wall' is their created word for sliding-glass door.

Frothability 

The measure of an emotional and over zealous consumer in an upwardly charging market, also known as a bull market. It's characterized by rising asset prices, increased investor confidence, and favorable growth in the markets, bro.
The frothability was evident as over-zealous consumers eagerly engaged in bidding wars, driving property prices to unsustainable levels reminiscent of previous speculative bubbles.

pod person 

A person pretending to be something they aren't, or an impostor. This is inferred because of the old alien movies where alien pods appear on earth and the "pod people" dispose of the humans and slowly reproduce the bodies, pretending to be humans.
The pod person was pretending to be my father, but I knew that he was an alien when he acted differently than my father ever would have.

A dead drop is a location used to secretly pass items between two people, without requiring them to meet.

Spies have been known to use dead drops, using various techniques to hide the items and to signal that the drop has been made. Drug dealers use this as well.

A common place is to duct tape the item to the underside of a toilet cover in a public restroom.

A signal is sometimes used as well to indicate there is something to pickup, like a pile of stones in a certain formation. After checking the drop the signal is removed.
"The dead drop is the restroom toilet at the Gulf station at the corner of Commercial Ave. and Georges Rd."
