Some worthless music streaming service also dubbed "radio" that caters mainly towards middle-aged conservative Americans (i.e. none of those reading this definition).
I've noticed that many companies like to give away free Sirius XM subscriptions in exchange for trying out their products/services, but unless you're into classic rock or sports, it's worth absolutely nothing for those that fall outside its main demographic. Don't even think about trying it. Just use Spotify or Tidal.
Friend 1: Hey I bought a PS5 and they gave me 3 months of Sirius XM for free, you want it?
Friend 2: Ew no, that's like Spotify but for boomers

A metaphorical and rather elusive phrase which is used to describe having obsessive thoughts over another person or group (usually followed by 'in my head').
The elusive part, imo, comes from the phrase's seeming implication that someone wants to live inside your head, as in they wanted you to think about them, when it's often the opposite case (i.e. you obsess about them and they don't know/it wasn't their plan).
So when I say "Jake is living rent-free in Sally's mind", it doesn't imply that Jake has successfully enamoured Sally with his charm. What it really means is that Jake is unaware that he is the object of obsession in Sally's mind. But since Jake is unaware, his pov becomes nullified and therefore defaults to Sally's pov ("Sally is obsessed with Jake"). This phrase ๐ค๐ข๐ฏ be used to imply that Jake had successfully infatuated Sally, however most people tend to use it for its inverse meaning. It can also be used for someone beyond just your crush, such as someone who hates you.
Just shining some light on the hidden logic behind this phrase, which some people might find confusing (e.g. me).

Rust Teammate 1: Hey I was away for a few days, fill me in.
Rust Teammate 2: We just pulled off a massive raid on one of the most heavily fortified bases, and we destroyed it to smithereens!
Rust Teammate 1: Damn! nice!! I guess we must be living rent-free in those team's heads now, hahaha.
A social speedster is someone who essentially 'speedruns' through their social media networks, which includes scrolling through their feed like a madman, liking posts with minimum forethought, reading all their PMs under a second, and clicking on one insta story after another without any pause in the middle.
Social speedsters are also highly known for sending a snap in a lightning quick succession. The time it takes to take their phone out of their pocket, enter snapchat, and snapping a pic is only a mere 3 seconds.
Nowadays, most youngsters and young adults are social speedsters. This inclination can have its drawbacks, as a social speedster may zoom through their PMs but not respond to them immediately, and eventually as more PMs build up they might forget about the ones they've already read.
Me: My friends are all social speedsters. You should see how blazing fast they plow their feeds and PMs. Every time I send a message and it gets read and they never reply back, I sometimes question my relationship with them, but then I remember "oh duh, they are social speedsters". Can't blame them entirely, as they are just trying to adapt to today's information-packed, attention-based media.
The ultimate emote for flexin' your soft boi energy in a lowkey way. Drop this emote in the snapchat squad to let 'em know you feelin' cute but not tryna make it weird. Especially powerful when paired with "uwu" to communicate the feels through an intentionally absurd pastiche that critiques societal norms through ironic recontextualization. Can also be used on twitter when you want people to know you've got an alt af aesthetic but don't wanna curse too hard and get canceled by the stans. Definitely a vibe to throw in your Tinder bio if you tryna attract the art hoes and eboys without seemin' too try-hard. Using ":3" is the most effeminate way to keep it chill while still lookin' like a snack for the other soft bois out there.
Jenny: Omg can you believe Kevin asked me out?! I thought he'd never get the courage :P
Megan: No way, that's crazy! But also not that surprising, I always thought he had a thing for you ;). So are you gonna say yes? :3
In this conversation, Megan uses ":3" lightheartedly and ambiguously. It softens any potentially intrusive questions and shows she's keeping an optimistic yet non-pushy perspective on her friend's dilemma. The ":3" hints that there may be more nuance to her responses without being overtly cryptic.
At first glance, the colon-three emoticon appears innocuous and quaint - a simple cat-like smile. However, beneath its facile form lies multilayered semiotic significance and implications of textual play. The asymmetry between its innocent visage and the hints of deeper meaning evokes theorists of postmodern irony. Upon transmission, ":3" enters dialogic relations that imbue it with contextual valence beyond its basic denotation.
It signifies through apophasis - expressing more through what is not directly referenced or stated. The smirk underscores an ambivalence between genuineness and jest that reflects the problematics of virtual communication analyzed by Landow or Turkle. Whether intended sincerely or in jest, the sender relinquishes a measure of interpretive control to the receiver. Thus ":3" emerges as a Derridean trace - always deferred and differing according to the positions and preunderstandings that interlocutors bring.
The ":3" holds the ambivalent potential for cheeky subversion and sly subtweeting, all while maintaining an outward appearance of childish naivety. When others see you sending ":3" they know you are thinking on a higher level and reading between the lines. It is the emoji for the woke and aware.
