White Men Can't Jump Theory 

White Men Can't Jump Theory is a tale as old as gravity, due to the evolutionary trait of white people having less joints in their legs, they cannot jump the same height as minorites. Whenever they try and play hoops, it's classified as a hate crime and a medical emergency due to the sure fact their legs will give out after the last slam dunk.
"Hey look, Tyler's gonna dunk that basket!"

"Oh shit, forgot about White Men Can't Jump Theory."

Word of the Day on June 16, 2026
An acronym for an "aznbbygirl" meaning an asian female gangster. ABG's like to hang with gangsters and wear thin (slutty) clothing. They like to jump other girls who talk shit and make out with their boyfriends 24/7 (maybe even have sex.) Usually own side kicks who also like to text frequently. ABG'S also normally have a "ride or die" homie, someone who is always down for them, or die trying. ABG's are also known for dying their hair alot. From blonde to black. They have many piercings: multiple on the ears, and stomach/lip. They probably have teased hair, bangs, and have had extensions at one point or another. Could also have painted nails and tatoos. ABG's are super hot, but you would probably get jumped if you tried to hit on them. They also loiter and hang out past curfew.
"Oh shit look at those hotties at that boba house.."
"Watch out, see those gangsters next to them? Their obviously ABG's."
"Damn..still hot."

Side Quest 

Any period of time where you and your friends go out without initial purpose or expectations. Usually in the early hours of the morning or late at night, side quests last as long as everyone is still out away from their home, dorm, or common meeting space. Side quests usually happen after a "main quest," scheduled hang out or party and usually feature less people than the original main quest.
"I'm bored but idk what to do... wanna just go out?"
"Hell yeah man let's go on a side quest!"
