Love Science

Love Science studies the over 200-types of love, and the many ways individuals can love and be loved.
Individuals who practice love science are called love scientists and they have discovered that the brain processes love neurochemically and neuroelectrically and changes the body's biochemistry in ways that improve the biological, emotional, and mental states of both humans and animals.

I feel love for an individual who I calculate can help me or provide me with something I need. When a person "falls" in love, they lose a degree of self-control and feel a strong need to give different things to their love object, thereby making love mutual and allowing the two or more participants to grow as a result of their loving interactions. Lastly, love cannot be purchased or given a price. I think it is a one-of-a-kind supernatural phenomenon.

problemtunity

The combination of the words "problem" and "opportunity", and a reminder that problems are opportunities.
Intuitively , the graduate student sensed that getting a new next door neighbor who smokes was a PROBLEMTUNITY, but wasn't sure why. In the next few days and weeks he realized that seeing how fucked-up his neighbor was, addicted to nicotine and unable to quit smoking, and that man's other problemtunities, let the graduate student see how blessed he was to be healthy and living correctly. The opportunity the problemtunity presented him with is a chance to spend more time studying, because to prevent his new neighbor's cigarette smoke from entering his apartment through its main door he puts a blanket at the base of the door, and to not need to stick parts of the blanket in the cracks on the side of the door more than once-a-day, he stays at home more, dedicates more time to study, and is getting better grades.

tangibleize

The thought, "The body is a physical manifestation of the soul", can also be expressed as "The body tangibleizes the soul".

Examples of things which "tangibleize" an invisible thing—such as a thought—are words, drawings, photographs, images, and sculptures or 3-D models because those things have transformed a thought or feeling into a visible or tangible representation of them.

And though spoken words manifest thoughts, no one can see a spoken word. To make a word visible, it must be written or typed. Then it can be moved around in a text. Though it is not possible to touch or hold written word per se, they can be said to be tangible because when written, they can be sent in a letter or email, or when printed on a paper or in a book, carried.

peropgen

The encapsulated version of "person of the opposite gender."
Though at first it sounds a little funny and futuristic, the new word "peropgen,"—which means "person of the opposite gender"—saves time, space, and energy works and is extremely helpful.

information deprivation

Hiding or depriving individuals or groups of people of facts to keep them ignorant and powerless. Individuals and organizations do that to protect themselves, to monopolize power, or to more easily take advantage of others.
I think it's safe to say that at some point and to varying degrees everybody practices information deprivation against those they interact with in order to trick them.
