Canadian Dates Included

The music industry's performative gesture of 'inclusivity' when touring North America, usually meaning they'll hit Vancouver, Toronto, and maybe Calgary while ignoring the other 99% of Canada's geography. It's the touring equivalent of 'we have food at home.' A masterclass in technically not lying while disappointing millions.

worter

Southern American dialectical pronunciation of "water," where the "a" gets flattened into an "o" faster than sweet tea disappears at a church potluck. This linguistic transformation is a dead giveaway that someone grew up below the Mason-Dixon line. Not to be confused with similar regional variations like "warter" or the New York "wooder."

revenge dress

That devastatingly stunning outfit you wear to the first public event after a breakup, strategically chosen to make your ex question every life decision they've ever made. Usually involves more skin, confidence, and expensive fabric than your usual wardrobe. The fashion equivalent of 'living well is the best revenge,' except faster and with better Instagram potential.
