hey psst over here
imma let you in on a secret
you know words right?
yeah you know what i’m talking about
the good shit
anyway you know where words come from?
people just make them up! anyone can do it! you don’t need permission or anything!
here watch i’ll do it
the new words are “relip” and “thamagar”
there it’s done we have new words easy
i’m not gonna define them or anything that would be uncouth words don’t have definitions
but let me show you how to use them
when you say “why don’t you just?” that’s relip
when you talk for an hour about the minute boring details of a subject that’s thamagar
when you look at a problem and you think of all the other stuff in the area that you’ve done that’s like it and can use all of that to come up with a solution that’s thamagar
when you look at a problem and go “i don’t know much about this but here’s a crazy idea” and it works that’s relip
(when it doesn’t work it’s still relip you’re just not being very good at it)
when you can’t see the woods for the trees you’re being thamagar
when you forget that woods are made of trees you’re being relip
experts are almost always thamagar about their subject
when you’re learning something new you’re usually relip
when you can explain something precisely and carefully and answer people’s detailed questions about it you’re being thamagar
when you can explain something in a sentence with no weird words you’re being relip
the difference between me and @notateapot is we’re both relip about most of the shit we talk about but she wants to be thamagar while i like it this way
