Main Character Energy

Definition

The audacious belief that you are the protagonist of the universe and everyone else is a supporting cast member in your personal movie. It's narcissism rebranded as self-care, and honestly, sometimes the confidence is inspiring and sometimes it's blocking the grocery store aisle.

Example Usage

"She walked through the airport in slow motion with her AirPods in, radiating main character energy, then walked straight into a glass door. Side character moment."
