The phrase "that's my bark to peel" refers to an artistic concept wherein an artist is to decide the meaning and content of their art. It can also be used in a similar way to "that's my axe to grind", meaning that it's your business to deal with.
"That's my bark to peel" as in "that's my art to create", "that's my bark to peel" as in "I dictate the meaning of my piece". In some ways this idiom can lie directly contrary to the artistic concept of The Death of the Author, a concept which has the viewer as the decider on the pieces meaning.
This idiom was created by Canadian writers Andy Zuliani and Cassie Mifflin based off Mifflin's short story "Cold Pudding and the Last Great Maritimer" wherein she included a line after her bark was stolen by artist Ruben Moller where she said "That's my bark to peel". Andy would then go on to coin the phrase's meaning while discussing her work and then further what that moment meant, telling her that "If a professor is ever making you tear apart your work more than you'd like, just tell them 'that's my bark to peel.'"
Andy: "If a professor is ever making you tear apart your work more than you'd like, just tell them 'that's my bark to peel.'"
A term origininating in the 2020s which comes from the Scott Pilgrim series and it's titular main character Scott Pilgrim.
The term was coined by YouTuber LightLite/KuraiCry, also known as Images Preceding Legendary Events in reference to the relationships of 22 year old Scott Pilgrim. In the series Scott begins dating 17 year old Knives Chau in rebound from his ex 25 year old Envy Adams before completely losing interest in Knives the second he meets 24 year old Ramona Flowers.
To be Pilgrim'd is to be the Knives of this situation in which you get into a relationship involving an age gap with someone rebounding from an ex, before they completely lose interest in you, usually after meeting someone else vaguely interesting.
Ellie: "I can't believe I got Scott Pilgrim'd. I vow to never get pilgrim'd again."
This slang term coined in the 2020s has two different common uses.
It is mainly used in the context of an activity or goal that has not yet succeeded, but is fated to succeed and is currently in progress. A "success in progress".
Most often, the term is used in the romantic world when someone is fumbling major bitches but is in denial at how hard they're fumbling, saying the fumble is just a "success in progress". Usually not kissing someone you have pinned against the wall when they say you should have is a fumble, not a success in progress. But users of the phrase often use the term on these obvious fumbles, creating a sort of paradox between the actual meaning of the word and its most popular usage.
Trevor: "man you fumbled that hard."
Maximillion: "yeah dawg you fumbled hard, you had one job."
Gwendolyn: "No no, it' not a fumble! It's a success in progress I'll fix the fumble!"
A Canadian term for chips and crisps.
Mostly used to refer to potato chisps but can also be used for other forms of chips and crisps such as corn chisps, nacho chisps, tortilla chisps, and dorito chisps.
The origin of chisps is a combination of crisps and chips because the Canadians took inspiration from the European term and the American term when creating their own.
Though some Canadians will still refer to chisps as chips, chisps is regarded as the correct term. This error comes from the fact that it says chips on the packaging of most chisps because they come from America where the correct term is in fact chips.
Ben: "Bro can you pass the chisps?"
Alex: "Sure bro, you want the BBQ, plain, salt n vinegar, or dorito chisps?"
Ben: "I'll take the BBQ ones."
Mary: "Oh pass me the salt and vinegar chisps."
