paywall

A virus that began in the late 1990s and has spread rapidly on the internet in the 2010s, requiring users to pay in order to view articles on news websites. They began doing this thanks to users using Adblock.

Companies like The New York Times and various other newspapers began exploiting this to their fullest extent. And if you're trying to write a paper or something, expect yourself to lose a couple dollars to these greedy dorks. You'd better be off using Incognito Mode on Chrome if you want to get around them.

Kyle: Hey, were you able to write that essay?
Chris: No, every single website I visited is locked behind a paywall and now they're making me pay for an overpriced subscription.
Kyle: Screw those guys, they have enough money!

3rd Millennium Classrooms

The company who created that stupid Alcohol Wise course forced on freshmen at universities. Their general purpose is to make you miserable. Their software is also really glitchy too; for example, it won't let you submit an answer to a question on a quiz. Also, you have to get 67% or higher to pass and if you don't, it forces you to take the entire quiz again. And guess what? It's randomized, making you dumber every time you take it.

Kyle: Dude, did you finish Alcohol Wise?
Chris: Finally, I did. That course was an absolute desk banger. The post test was absolute hell - the system kept messing me up due to glitches and dumb grading procedures, forcing me to retake it numerous times. Screw 3rd Millennium Classrooms.
Kyle: Same as you. I don't ever have to go through this again.

speech therapy

Another stupid class that special ed kids are often forced into. You can end up with this if the teacher or parents think you can't speak right and may need therapy, usually due to a mental disorder or learning disability. It usually takes place once every one to two weeks and often takes place during one of your other classes or free time.

I was in speech therapy for every grade I was in during my elementary and junior high years. It sucked all because my parents and teachers thought I couldn't speak right.

Fatican

What the Vatican is referred to when it has a pope that is overweight or obese.

The Vatican just elected a pope that's overweight. We can now refer to it as the Fatican!

Cologuard

An at-home colon cancer screening tool that will send medical bills through the roof.

After I used Cologuard and learned my sample was positive, I had to get a colonoscopy after all. But then the bills began arriving. I thought my insurance would cover it, when in reality it did not.
