Hawaiian Pizza

The best kind of pizza.

Despite its name, it originated in Canada. Like ketchup chips and other bizarrely awesome flavour combinations, pineapple on pizza is a Canadian thing.

As a Canadian who grew up with Hawaiian pizza, I have to say it's the best thing ever. The way the pineapple mingles with the bacon is just *chef's kiss*

Unabomber

Contrary to popular belief, the Unabomber was more of a domestic terrorist rather than a psychopath. As with all terrorists, his motive to kill was purely ideological. He was severely critical towards technological advancement and how—in a way—technology would corrupt society. It might've seemed like an absurd and irrational critique 30, 20 or even 10 years ago, but now in 2021 where nomophobia is a real thing, the Unabomber's critique isn't that far off (just minus the terrorizing part).

If the Unabomber didn't choose the unnecessarily violent path, he would've made a great point. Many theorists have talked about the paradox of technology, where technology has freed us, but yet at the same time has enslaved us.

It is recommended to read Neil Postman's "Technopoly: the surrender of culture to technology" to understand more about this paradox.

The Unabomber was an unhinged thinker whose ideas were woke, but whose actions were flawed.

sexpat

An unpleasant, unkempt, unrestrained, smutty, irritable, vain, and likely misogynistic man that you'd never wanna meet on the streets of bangkok or kabukicho.

Restaurant waitress: I dated a sexpat before. Never again!

🤭

This may mean various things but it mostly comes off as a giggling face, like when people giggle but try to hide it by covering their mouth. Used during contexts when a giggle or snicker is appropriate.

Me: Wait, McDonald's has free refills??
Melanie:🤭
