q359's definitions
Stuff that is not medicine, and has no medicinal properties, but conspiracy theorists and other dumbasses insist is the REAL medicine, because the entire healthcare field is a sham, or something, and the knowledge of people from 500-1000 years ago when they didn't even have toilets is superior to modern science.
Don't listen to those Big Pharma quacks telling you to get radiation treatment for your cancer, here, drink this soup of tree bark and lemongrass, it's alternative medicine.

Get the alternative medicinemug. A completely idiotic, 100% crock-of-shit psychological movement that caters to emotionally-stunted, entitled adult children who can't do basic life errands without having an animal buddy by their side at all times, and disingenuous shitbirds who like to co-opt the language of disability to abuse loopholes in order to have pets where pets are not allowed.
What do you mean, I can't bring a fully-grown adult crocodile on an airplane? It's my emotional support animal, you're being ableist!

Get the emotional support animalmug. An very edgy slogan that environmentalists without any realistic solutions to offer (like hmm, more affordable electric cars?), and angry bicyclists who refuse to upgrade to a more modern (and adult) form of transportation, actually propose in earnest as a thing that society should or could do, as if it would not immediately make modern existence completely impossible, which they might realize if they even took 5 seconds to consider the ramifications of their asinine proposal.
"Cars pollute and drivers are big meanies to me on my bicycle, ban cars! It's not like this would make grocery shopping extremely difficult for most people, prevent anyone from ever traveling more than 50 miles away from their home, and also, I would have no goods or food at all, since literally everything I own was delivered by a truck! This is totally a reasonable solution, and not an adolescent overreaction at all! I'm so superior to you all for not owning a car, oh shit, I need a ride somewhere, better call up my friend who has a car/take an Uber!"

Get the ban carsmug. GothamChess, aka Levy Rozman, is an International Master (IM) of chess from New York City, who during the pandemic lockdown of 2020-21, even more so than Netflix's The Queen's Gambit, almost singlehandedly got an entire new generation of young people interested in the game of chess, a game that most people had previously thought boring. He did this by being witty, funny, and excitedly recapping games of chess like a charismatic sports announcer covering a tense basketball game, and in doing so, got richer than even the world's top chess players, because there isn't much money in actually playing the game. He is known for sacrificing THE ROOOOOOOOK, and for calling bad chess players "bozos".
Some old-school, humorless chess-playing dorks think GothamChess is annoying, but he's laughing all the way to the fucking bank.

Get the GothamChessmug. Edgy is a word whose meaning has greatly changed over time. Back in the '60s-early '80s, "edgy" referred to talented satirists like George Carlin who took well-deserved potshots at a notoriously conservative, straight-laced, and repressive establishment who had strict rules about what you could and couldn't say on broadcast. Nowadays, since people like Carlin basically won that battle a long time ago, and it's normal to hear people talking about vibrators on Oprah, "edgy" refers to people who just say outrageous things for shock value, or take knee-jerk, reflexive anti-authority/anti-status-quo stances without carefully thinking over the ramifications of what they're advocating.
I spent 10 minutes on Reddit, and in those 10 minutes, I learned from some 14-year-olds that the Holocaust is hilarious, that all fat people are lazy pieces of shit, and that the reasonable solution to environmental pollution is to ban all cars. How very, very edgy.

Get the edgymug. I used to say I didn't give a flying fuck, but then I took a vacation to the UK with my girl and on the way there, I decided to change that.

Get the flying fuckmug. A classic, all-purpose insult for a stupid person that can be used many ways, this particular definition writer prefers to use it for people who do idiotic things that they should know better than to do, and which, due to their own stupidity, end up with them getting hurt, getting suckered out of their money or otherwise taken advantage of, or suffering other ill fortune. People who brought it on themselves.
Some people think the term originated with Beavis and Butt-head, but that's actually not true, that show just popularized the term. It's at least as old as Star Trek IV (1986), and probably older than that. While the show That '70s Show came out later, and is fictional, the character of Red Forman in that show was also known for using the term and so, if the show is an accurate depiction of the time, then people were using the term in the '70s as well.

I read an article about this dude who got drunk, put a lit firecracker in a beer bottle and shoved it up his rectum, and now he doesn't have an anus or a colon. What a dumbass.
