Amazon echo

1) A mediocre speaker with a POS smart assistant that absolutely sucks at responding to your commands. Very often misinterprets everything you say even when speaking in a normal voice, let alone when speaking quietly.

2) A dumb irritating person that you have to stick with on a long-term basis.

1) "Alexa, turn on the bedroom light"
"Sorry, I couldn't find a device named bedroom lamp"

"Alexa, turn the light strips to six"
"Got it, turning off all the lights"
"fuck off"

2) "Why so pissed?"
"I have an Amazon echo in my bedroom, go figure."

Anime

Everyone knows what anime is by now.

But it's arguably also one of the most basic examples of "cultural capital" (the sociological concept), especially and particularly for kids and teens at school.

If you're not a jock, preppy or just an all-round popular kid, then having some basic knowledge about anime is one of the most indispensable forms of cultural capital any kid could have in order to fit in. This is considerably more true today, as the antiquated stereotype that "anime is uncool/is for nerds/etc." is slowly waning.

And let me tell you, as someone who unfortunately lacked any knowledge of anime starting from 6th grade, I had trouble conversing with most of my (non-jock) classmates. This resulted in two unpleasant outcomes for me: be a loner or mingle with the rowdy jock kids. But that was 13 years ago. I would think most if not all kids today watch anime, since cable TV is a thing of the past.

Just like how an iPhone is worth a lot of money, being up-to-date with anime and weeb culture is worth a lot of cultural capital.

Dakimakura

It's like that one episode in spongebob where barnacle boy shines a flashlight at this dude in his car who's making out with his pillow. Replace that pillow cover with one that has an anime girl and you've got yourself a dakimakura.

Dirty Bubble: OH! *points at a car* Shine the flashlight in that car, Man Ray!
Man Ray: Hahahaha, with pleasure! *shines on a guy making out with his dakimakura*
Fish: Hey man that's not cool...

Anti-consumerism

A counterculture/counterideology that opposes lavish consumerism. The ideas of anti-consumerism are mostly adopted by two seperate schools of thought: environmentalists and critical theorists.

Anti-consumerism implies being against the increasing development of shopping centers, shopping holidays such as black friday, and other forms of mindless capitalistic entertainment.

Personality trait

A personality trait is often thought of as labels you conform to (e.g. introvert/extrovert, shy/sociable), but really it should be thought of as something which makes a person unique.

In other words, personality traits refers to the idiosyncrasies of an individual.

Example 1: Brianna hated wearing braces in her middle to high school years, but ultimately it became her personality trait as it defined who she was.

Example 2: Being a night owl is a personality trait

Example 3: Having an odd and unusual kink is a personality trait as it is highly idiosyncratic
