Cyber Aggression

Cyber aggression is aggression between individuals that occurs online, usually a one-off occurrence or at most happens only occasionally. Interestingly, when it happens, the aggressor has no power over the target of the aggression or there is no intention to cause harm or distress to the target of the aggression, which possibly explains the frequently heard advice “Don’t tweet when you’re pissed.”
In some cases, however, cyber aggression is rather more sinister, when an individual used an online relationship to deliberately intimidate, emotionally harm, manipulate or exercise power over another person when online.

Cyber aggression is becoming more frequent as more people go online, could this be another form of culture clash, or is it just because some people are nasty, shitty bastards?

BOHOF

It’s an acronym standing for Back Of Hand On Forehead. It goes back to the early silent movies where melodrama was the order of the day and the back of the hand on the forehead was used to indicate distress. Now, however, it is applied to those people, male or female, who are complete drama queens and who treat a small setback or minor difficulty as if it was the end of the world. In short, it is the epitome of overdramatic exaggeration.

That wanker is having a BOHOF moment because the canteen ran out of chocolate donuts.
What a complete Malcolm.

Triskaidekaphobia

This is fear of the number 13. It goes back to the time of Christ where there were 13 at the last supper and is a surprisingly common fear. Hotels rarely have a 13th floor and many people will not be part of a group of 13; Winston Churchill, for example, refused to dine at a table with 13 guests.

Many people suffer from triskaidekaphobia
