OLAM

OLAM stands for "Oh, Look at Me". It is used to describe the behaviour of someone who does something in order to be looked at and noticed, particularly on social media.

Mike is so OLAM with that topless picture on his Harley.

olamity

Noun - a catastrophe of epic proportion; particularly in the deployment or maintenance of IT services or hardware, caused by utter incompetence or a fundamental lack of understanding of the underlying systems.

That crash was an olamity. It could've completely been avoided if he would have had any understanding of package management.

tikkun olam

The literal meaning is "repair the world", and it is a concept in Judaism interpreted as the prospect of overcoming all forms of idolatry, and by other Jewish denominations as an aspiration to behave and act constructively and beneficially.

By the mid-1980s, rabbis, educators, communal workers, ac­tivists and others were invoking tikkun olam as a value concept in support of a variety of humanistic and distinctly Jewish causes, ranging from environmentalism and nuclear non-proliferation to Palestinian-Israeli reconciliation and unrestricted Soviet Jewish emigration.

Token Olam

A Jewish person who willingly acts as a token Jew in order to endear themselves to anti-semites in the Boycott Israel movement (aka BDS). They are tokens because the vast majority of Jewish people view the BDS movement as anti-Semitic. Token Olam is a play on “Tikkun Olam,” or “Heal the world” because Token Olams view themselves as more enlightened or peacemakers. They will often remain silent and stand shoulder to shoulder with anti-semites spewing hate. They will sympathize with terrorism committed by HAMAS, and they will victim blame when Jews are attacked. Another term for a Token Olam is “AsaJew” because they are known to say “as a Jew, I support the BDS movement.” Token Olams will often be seen at Jewish Voice for Peace, If Not Now, or Students for Justice in Palestine events.

“Honestly it disgusts me how much Judaism is centered around Israel.”
“Oh wow. I didn’t know you were a Token Olam.”

Tikkun Olam

Are you a pussy who can't stand a night under the stars? Do you like almost getting kidnapped? Then Tikkun Olam is right for you!

I chose Tikkun Olam as my Chavaya!

So you're a coward?
