Mary Mary Quite The Contrarian's definitions

Wonderbread

1) The most boring brand of bread ever. They are so commonplace that even dollar stores sell them.
2) Something that you fail to notice in a public setting, simply because it is too commonplace.
3) An option that is always available but you always avoid because there is always something better.
1) I always consider the store's freshly baked bread first. If there's no bakery, then I'll settle with Dempster's I guess. But I'll never in my life buy wonderbread, mostly cus I never paid attention to it in the first place.
2) The mainstream music playing from the store's speakers is like wonderbread.
3) When shopping for 2L sodas, you're always going to consider the main brands first. The other no-name brands are just wonderbreads.

I know, I know

A sentence or phrase used by someone (usually a kid) who becomes utterly annoyed hearing the same thing over and over again and being told what to do (usually from their teacher or parents).

Son: I know, I know! What's what I'm trying to do, give me a break would ya?
Mom: I can't tell. Do it now

Covidiot

There appears to be quite a discrepancy between definitions here. Let me settle this once and for all.

truth seeker

What people think it means: someone who is strong-willed to seek the truth in everything.

What it actually means: A strongly opinionated individual who only thinks their point-of-view is correct and dismisses other people's perspectives, often merely just to demonstrate their grandiloquence. The real so-called "truth seekers" would never even call themselves that. Anyone who goes by this pseudonym on the internet is likely a tryhard.
Truth Seeker: "Why do people keep on insisting to believe in these myths? There's only two genders and that's a fact. God this generation is full of morons."
Me, a real intellectual: "Shut"

Manifesto

Generally, this is really just a fancy term for an essay. Alternatively, it can be used for an essay that's too good to be called an essay (especially if it's a rather grandiose critique on something).
1) Mom: Why you still up at 4am?
Me: Sorry just gotta finish up my manifesto before it's due tomorrow

2) Calvin wrote a huge manifesto on the relationship between technological determinism & porn addiction and posted it on Reddit, but no one ever paid attention.

Misconstrue

To carelessly misinterpret another person's words, ideas or intentions, often with a dismissive and disparaging mindset. When a person misconstrues, they rely on their gut feeling while paying no attention to the actual content and rationale. Though it can happen anywhere, such quick-to-react idiocy is almost exclusive to Twitter and Reddit.

Psuedo-intelligence

Psuedo-intelligence is intelligence not derived from the understanding of knowledge, but from the wise and clever things that you hear other people say or do. Basically it is a form of social learning where you learn how to come off as seemingly intelligent but not actually so.
Amy used psuedo-intelligence she learned from a YouTube video to pick up a guy.
