Transference 

Transference is when you “transfer” you personal flaws and garbage to someone else.

Many times, people don’t even realize they are doing this.

Occasionally it is important for personal, positive growth to ask yourself if you are doing this to other people, because by periodically examining your own flaws, you can be aware of them.

By becoming aware of them, you have to opportunity to change and become a better and happier person.

Transgender Derangement Syndrome 

Transgender Derangement Syndrome (TDS) is a phenomenon which typically occurs in the minds of those who dislike the existence of those who are transgender. In essence, it is when the subject of transgender people and transgender Culture War politics are brought up despite it having no relevance to the conversation at hand.

This can be most likely attributed to the sufferer's constant paranoia and delusions about a monolithic "Big Trans" entity. Where, similar to many cases of schitzophrenia, they believe that not stopping this entity would mean the destruction of the world and humanity as a whole.
Alice: "Hey, my friend Jake just beat me in an arm wrestle. How can I get back at him?"
Bob: "You can try to lift weights, but ultimately, biologically, men will always be stronger than women. This is why these damn biological males and transgender women should not be allowed in sports and in women's spaces!!"
Alice: "Wow..I never even mentioned trans people though? Are you suffering from Transgender Derangement Syndrome?"

No Surprises Wedding

A "No Surprises Wedding," or NSW, is a wedding invitation designation that tells attendees that there can be no unplanned announcements, engagements, events or speeches at the wedding - all actions must be pre-approved by the couple. Anyone who performs an unapproved "surprise" will be asked to leave the wedding early.

This designation comes from Reddit, where so many stories of bad wedding behavior indicated a need to communicate expectations for the wedding behavior of attendees.
You are cordially invited to the nuptials of Brian and Tom on October 31 at noon.

Please note that this wedding is child-free (under 10) and a No Surprises Wedding (NSW). Reach out to wedding planner Sami Smith to request approvals or exceptions; please note that exceptions will be rare. Limited child care for under-10s will be available. All approvals will be noted and included in planning. Unapproved, or surprise exceptions, will result in guests being asked to leave.

Texas is categorized as a swing state in presidential elections, but has voted for Republicans more times than for Democrats in recent history. As such, as demographics change political alignments, some Democrats believe that Texas will vote blue, or Democratic, due to their Hispanic and African American voters, who often align themselves with the Democratic Party's liberal wing.

Blexas has been cited as possible in the upcoming decades, but only if Democrats continue to win the Hispanic vote in bigger margins.
Democrat 1: What is your prediction for the 2024 presidential election?
Democrat 2: Well uh, Blexas!
Democrat 1: You've been saying that since 2008 though.
