X=9 (X equals 9) is a glitch associated with Super Mario Maker and Super Mario Maker 2 where assets placed in the 9th horizontal tile from the left behave differently than in other tiles in the grid. The grid tends to recur in multiples of nine in the grid, such as in the 129th horizontal tile, which exhibits similar properties.
The most common glitch is clipping through solid assets (like question blocks or walls) when bumped from underneath.

Ok, let's see what's in this question block, maybe it's a mushr... What the hell just happened? Did I just clip through the wall? Is this X=9?

Get the X=9 mug."Planning a diarrhea" is a humorous way of referring to a planned sick leave from work, especially when it's not backed by actual sickness, but rather to spend paid sick days for things other than sickness.
Diarrhea is used as an excuse for the leave, as it's cumbersome enough to keep one from leaving home, warrants little explanation, and may not require a doctor's note to justify the sick day, as it can go away on its own.

* So, are you working on Tuesday?
** Nah. I'm planning a diarrhea for that day. Got stuff to do at home.

3. A misattribution of taste based on confirmation bias, where others are wrong for liking something, whereas the user of the word perceives themselves as "right" otherwise for not liking it.

Get the Overrated mug.An anti-softlock is a resource used to prevent or get out of an apparent softlock in a videogame (which has been put there by design). It provides the player with a way out of the designed softlock by providing an exit or a way to kill their character in order to return to a previous save state.
Unlike softlocks, anti-softlocks are placed by design and are not effective in true softlocks from by faulty design, death on spawn, spawning inside a wall, or a game autosaving right the instant before you die.

Get the Anti-softlock mug.An Empanada de iglesia ("church pattie") is a Colombian Spanish term referring to a pastry which has the same makings as a regular Empanada (a fried corn flour casing filled with mashed potatoes with ground meat, chicken or cheese), but without meat.
Typical church patties will be filled with potatoes cooked with tomatoes and onions, or simply be made of just the fried corn flour casing alone.
Given that the Catholic Church states that their followers should not eat meat on Fridays, church patties are a common sight on church gatherings in Colombia, as well as at at home for people who closely follow the faith's food mandates, hence the name of the pastries.
Church patties are not restricted to Catholics, as it's commonplace in Colombia to refer to meatless patties as such.

"Bueno, así como para engañar el hambre..."

Get the Empanadas de iglesia mug.A Carl Box is a term coined by the Super Mario Maker internet community to describe a situation where a player stands still while trying to assess the layout of the level they've just entered, only to be bombarded by traps/enemies that punish the player for standing still in the first place.
Mainly used to troll the player and make them lose lives, Carl Boxes come in a wide variety of forms, as the game's build assets allow for a great range of tricks to use. Carl Boxes also serve to prevent the player from successfully analyzing the situation, to lead them through purposely erroneous paths in order to lead them into inescapable traps that forces them to relinquish a life, and/or to do the wrong thing due to desperation. Because of the requirements that allow level makers to publish their levels, they have to be solved at least once, so Carl Boxes can be used as part of puzzles meant for the player to solve through quick action.
Carl Boxes were coined by Twitch streamer and Youtuber CarlSagan42, an avid player of Mario Maker and a Super Mario Bros speedrunner, due to his propensity to fall into them while streaming, so they're a self-deprecating term.

Get the Carl Box mug.A Key Death is a situation in Super Mario Maker where a key that opens a door doesn't get saved once obtained if the player dies, literally, the player dies with the key.
For instance, given the circumstance that a player collects a total number of red coins to obtain a key, the progress that the player makes while obtaining them can be saved through checkpoints, but once the key is obtained, the game does not allow the player to respawn the key once they revive after dying, losing both the key and the progress made through the coins, making the player have to recollect the coins once again.
Key deaths are an inherent risk to the game itself, as the player can always die regardless of having obtained either the coins or the key itself due of the nature of the game, but key deaths can be used as a troll element as well, creating a situation where the player loses all their progress.
