Wront

A genuine, non-ironic, misspelling of "wrong". Most often found online when developers attempt to say "Something went Wrong", but end up with "Something went Wront".

Error message: "Something went wront, please try to load this page again, or wait a minute and try again."

machinesplain

A variant of mansplain, where the explainer is not a man, but a computer. The interaction is similar in that the computer attempts to rather explain in simple terms, assuming the human is not bright enough to understand the deep machine-learning and algorithmic complexities involved.

I went over the data dump from the overnight job, but it's all just machinesplaining the obvious stuff, nothing enlightening.

Collective effervescence

A communal joy, a celebration shared by many. Also, implies a lot of drinking of alcohol; very similar to tailgating for an event, without requiring the vehicles and parking lot.

Collective effervescence is expensive and time-consuming in Wrigleyville today.
