Success Stain

Definition

The tiny puddle of spilled drink on your shirt, carpet, or couch that proves you were clearly living your best life. Skeptics call it a spill, but optimists insist it's a trophy marking where the party happened. Use it to rebrand clumsiness as achievement.

Example Usage

Oops, my drink's all over the rug. Relax, it's a success stain.

Sick

Following roughly the same trajectory aswicked, sick began being used to mean "cool" sometime around the 1980s. In the 80s and 90s, sick was most often used by skaters, surfers, and teenagers. Many people think skaters are primarily responsible for sick's additional definition, which arose from skaters using the term to describe mindblowing cool tricks that others needed to be "sick in the head" to attempt.
