🔘 SAHD

What kind of dad is a SAHD?

◻️Stay-at-home dad A SAHD is a "stay-at-home dad," a father who stays at home and takes care of his child(ren). His full-time job is maintaining the house and the kid(s) in it instead of a full-time position out of the house (which his partner likely holds). SAHD is similar to a SAHM, which is more common. However, the difference has waned due to the gender pay gap decrease and the influx of women in the workforce. You will likely see the SAHD acronym in parenting forums, in messages, and on social sites like Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook. For example, you might text your recently let-go brother-in-law, "How's SAHD life treating you?" ❓Example The number of SAHDs seems to be increasing lately.

While social justice activism has been prevalent for centuries, the "SJW" acronym didn't gain prominent usage until the 2010s. It became popular on social sites online, like Twitter and Facebook, to criticize people who really care about social issues like civil rights and feminism. The acronym is mainly used by socially conservative people to ridicule a progressive person's "outspokenness" about a social issue. It is also used to imply that the person wants attention or validation more than being led by actual convictions of social injustices. ❓Example We need to defund the police now!

🔘 Go Brrr

What does go brrr mean?

◻️Solve a problem Go brrr is a phrase applied to a machine or other item that can be used to "simply" solve a problem. The phrase originated within memes that depicted the A-10 Warthog military aircraft "solving" problems by firing its powerful machine guns at them. (When firing, the Warthog's machine guns produce a "brrrt" sound.) However, the phrase went viral as part of 2020's widely-shared Money Printer Go Brrr meme, which depicted the U.S. Federal Reserve printing money to combat a predicted, rona-induced economic downturn. Since then, a variety of "go brrr" memes have popped up online, and forum posters and social media users have begun using the phrase to call attention to simple actions that could solve (or "solve") a problem. Sometimes, "go brr" is used straightforwardly, to point out how simply a problem can actually be solved. Other times, "go brrr" is used sarcastically, to point out that a seemingly-simple solution is inadequate or could cause unforeseen consequences. ❓Example No! You can't just run 30 minutes a day to get fit! You have to follow my 15-step diet and weight loss plan. ha ha legs go brrr ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ ➠@PhrasalCards ➠@SlangWords ➠@IdiomsLand ➠@Vocabulix

🔘 Unforced Error

What is an unforced error?

◻️An easily-avoidable mistake An unforced error is a mistake a person made because they were careless, unfocused, or inattentive. This slang term is primarily used while discussing sports, to describe a misplay that a baseball, tennis, or badminton player could have avoided. Social media users may also use unforced error to describe mistakes made by companies, governments, celebrities, and politicians. Where did unforced error originate? Unforced error originated as and is still most popularly used as tennis slang. The term was coined in the 1920s, but it did not become popular until the 1970s and 80s. In 1982, Information and Display Systems began tracking players' unforced errors within their first-of-its-kind computerized tennis statistics system. What are some example unforced errors? The most common unforced error in tennis is double faulting on a serve. The serving player is in complete control of their serve and, theoretically, should always be able to avoid double faulting. They are never "forced" to double fault - thus double faulting is an "unforced" error. Other unforced errors include hitting easy shots on the wrong part of the racket, too early, or too late. What is an example of a non-sports unforced error? U.S. presidential candidates often commit unforced errors. For example, if a U.S. presidential candidate planned to visit a Wisconsin farm, but at the last minute changed their mind and visited a manufacturing hub instead, those who were hoping the candidate would court the agricultural vote may describe the change as an unforced error. ❓Example He just forgot Valentine's Day? That's an unforced error of the highest magnitude. ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ ➠@PhrasalCards ➠@SlangWords ➠@IdiomsLand ➠@Vocabulix

🔘 BB

🔘 TTYL

What does TTYL stand for?

◻️Talk to you later TTYL is commonly used when texting and messaging online to say, "Talk to you later" at the end of a conversation. It is one of several variations, including "TTUL," "T2UL," and "t2ul8r." Most people send it to others they think they will talk to again at another point in time, such as a friend or acquaintance. They may have just ended an online gaming match or need to go into a meeting and can't talk until later. TTYL is ambiguous since "later" is very subjective. It could refer to a period of time in minutes, hours, days, weeks, or even months. You'll need to discern the immediacy of the "later" from the context of your conversation. ❓Example I'll pick you up tonite around 8, cool? OK, that sounds good. TTYL! ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ ➠@PhrasalCards ➠@SlangWords ➠@IdiomsLand ➠@Vocabulix

🔘 Rage Applying

What is rage applying?

◻️Applying to open job positions out of spite for your current job Rage applying is when you are so furious with something that happened at work that you start applying to other open positions. For example, if your boss takes credit for the work you put into a presentation, you might head back to your desk, and rage apply to ten open positions. While rage applying happened before 2023, the trend gained prominence in January 2023 as job transiency skyrocketed in 2020 when covid shook the world. Also, as Gen Zers have entered the workforce, they don't have the same allegiance to employers as previous generations. Additionally, they are more likely to prioritize their mental health over their career, making it easier for them to change jobs. For some, rage applying is a fleeting moment that doesn't lead to a new job. Instead, it's a way to blow off steam, especially if they feel a need to be loyal to their employer. However, for others, rage applying leads to new jobs and opportunities and a chance at a better work environment and benefits. Other job-related slang Since we spend so much of our lives working, there is plenty of slang related to work. For example, quiet quitting and "The Great Resignation" are similar to rage applying. Also, there are plenty of acronyms, such as AWLTP, B2W, GBTW, and BFAW. ❓Example I can't stand it here anymore. Too much gossip and toxicity. After my break, I'm gonna rage apply on Indeed. About time! Let me know if you need help with your resume. ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ ➠@PhrasalCards ➠@SlangWords ➠@IdiomsLand ➠@Vocabulix

Cyberslacking is believed to be one of the biggest wastes of a company's money because the productivity of the cyberslacker dips sharply. Some companies implement measures to prevent or reduce cyberslacking, such as the blocking of popular websites like Facebook or Twitter. ❓Example We have to plan an intervention for Carol cause she's been cyberslacking real hard the past 2 weeks. ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ ➠@PhrasalCards ➠@SlangWords ➠@IdiomsLand ➠@Vocabulix

🔘 Appoholic

🔘 Quiet Quitting

What is quiet quitting?

◻️Only doing the minimum requirements for a job Quiet quitting is a trend that became popular in 2022, where employees choose only to do the minimum requirements for their job instead of going above and beyond. The movement is partially the result of covid, The Great Resignation, and people's commitment to preserving their mental health. Quiet quitters consciously choose to avoid the "hustle culture" to protect their personal lives, even if it means it may hurt their careers. Instead of working longer hours or picking up extra responsibilities, they only complete the required hours and tasks. While people who quietly quit do it for themselves, the choice may affect others. For example, employers have to adjust their expectations of their employees' productivity, and co-workers may need to pick up the slack. While anyone may quietly quit, it is especially common among Gen zers and Millennials. ❓Example Raul is quiet quitting his job because his boss keeps working him into the ground. Wow, good for him. ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ ➠@PhrasalCards ➠@SlangWords ➠@IdiomsLand ➠@Vocabulix

🔘 WFH

What does it mean to WFH?

◻️Work from home WFH is an acronym that stands for "Work from home" or "Working from home." The acronym describes an occupation that allows an employee to conduct his or her work at home instead of the office. Since the Internet allows users to work on and complete tasks remotely, WFH jobs around the globe have increased. These jobs may allow you to work full-time or a couple of days a week or a month. WFH jobs are helpful in times of emergency, as well, like in the case of the coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak around the world. As governments implemented social distancing guidelines to curb the spread of the virus, a large percentage of the workforce was sent home to WFH (and some even chose to move to Zoom towns). In order to effectively WFH, you need to have a certain skill set because it is very easy to get distracted when working where you live. You may get sidetracked by a spouse or kids, or by chores, like doing the laundry or washing dishes. Therefore, if you want to WFH, it's best to have a secluded space, like an office, where you can stay focused on your work tasks. ❓Example My job is now WFH due to COVID-19. That's cool that you get to be at home with the fam. Yeah, but my kids don't understand the "work" part. ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ ➠@PhrasalCards ➠@SlangWords ➠@IdiomsLand ➠@Vocabulix

Public campaigns have been launched to increase awareness of this epidemic but many men have staunchly defended their position citing male biological reasons. ❓Example These manspreaders have to be stopped!

On social media, clout chasers might share photos to promote their fake lifestyle. Or they may pretend to be someone else to become friends with a famous person that has more clout. There has been some criticism of the term since people have begun calling anyone who wants to be successful a clout chaser. The difference between people that just want to be successful and clout chasers is that clout chasers are willing to give up their identity and be fake just to get fame. ❓Example Wow, she just posted a cray thirst trap. OMG, she's such a clout chaser. ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ ➠@PhrasalCards ➠@SlangWords ➠@IdiomsLand ➠@Vocabulix

🔘 Poser

What does poser mean?

Some examples of groups of people posers try to appear as are jocks, goth punks, skaters, theater kids, and brainiacs.

Most people can detect a poser trying to fit in so it's better to just be yourself, instead of pretend to be someone you are not. ❓Example That guy looks like he's never even been on a skateboard, what a poser. ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ ➠@PhrasalCards ➠@SlangWords ➠@IdiomsLand ➠@Vocabulix
