antisocial distance

In the time of corona, a distance between individuals of LESS THAN six feet. In all other times, the inverse.

In the fight against corona-19, introverts are finding it easy to keep a social distance, while extroverts who by definition prefer to keep an antisocial distance are finding these times more trying.

Freudian insertion

the intentional placement of what others may construe as a Freudian slip into conversation.

"Oh, Emily, I would never objectify you. You're my breast friend forever."

Note that "Freudian insertion" itself is a Freudian insertion; thus, it is reflexive and somewhat masturbatory in nature.

famspam

the incessant influx of email perpetuated by family and relating to blah family events such as birthday well-wishing or inconsequential family dramas such as whose cupcake recipe most resembled grandma's.

I'm getting twenty bleeps a minute in my inbox from all this famspam wishing my one year old niece, who doesn't even have email mind you, a happy birthday.

You're safe if you have the answer to the question, but it's Jeopardy when you have the question to the answer.
