🔘Corona Bump
◻️Elbow bump with a person to avoid spreading the coronavirus
A Corona bump is when two or more people bump their elbows as an alternative to shaking hands. It is done with the intention of limiting the spread of the COVID-19 coronavirus.
The term was coined as the COVID-19 virus reached the United States in early March 2020. Some health officials and politicians began doing it as a substitute for the normal handshake and people online began referring to it as the "Corona bump."
The social maneuver is part of an overall effort to increase social distancing among individuals to slow the virus. However, it is still not completely effective as the virus can be transferred through sneezed or cough droplets. And if you are close enough to tap elbows, you are close enough to catch coughed or sneezed droplets. Because of this, some people choose to do an "air-five" or mime a handshake at least 6 feet away from the other person.
❓Example
"Do you think I should give her dad and mom a corona bump when I meet them?"

🔘Simping
◻️Obsessing over a person that does not return the same affection
Simping is when a person obsesses over someone and does things that he wouldn't normally do in order to please that person. It is primarily used online to criticize and make fun of a person for exerting a lot of effort to make someone happy who doesn't share the same romantic feelings.
While traces of the term date back to the mid-2000s, it did not become popular until the late-2010s. Teenagers and young adults mostly use the term on social media, especially on Twitter and TikTok, to call out others for acting like simps.
Simping is commonly done by a heterosexual male who is pursuing a disinterested girl in order to make her like him. He may say or do things out of his character in order to appeal to her desires. While simping is not as creepy as stalking it is seen as pathetic because everyone can see that it is desperate and a fruitless endeavor except for the simp.
The female being pursued may be unaware that she's breadcrumbing the guy. Or she may be doing it on purpose because she likes the focused attention.
Simping may also be used to make fun of guys who are just generally kind to a female without getting any sexual favors in return. This type of criticism has been scrutinized since it promotes "toxic masculinity" where it's only worth it for guys to be kind to women if they can get something out of it. Some claim that "SIMP" stands for "Suckas Idolizing Mediocre P****."
While simping is primarily done by desperate guys, girls may also be guilty of it when they are hopelessly infatuated with someone.
❓Example
"Antoine pretending to like the WNBA and buying tix to the game to get with Keysha is next level simping."
"Yeah, he's pathetic."

🔘Waiver Hawk
◽️A fantasy sports owner who patrols the waiver wire
A waiver hawk is an owner in fantasy sports, like fantasy football or fantasy baseball, who patrols the waiver wire to pick up players moments after they become a free agent. The name comes from the laser-like focus and patience of a real hawk hunting prey and an owner hunting a player that is placed on the league's waiver wire.
The waiver wire is known in real-life and fantasy sports as the period when a player is released from his team and before he becomes a free agent. There is an order that teams are placed in to have priority to pick up players. The order is based on the team's record (the worst team has first priority) and how often they pick up players (when you pick up a player from waivers you go to the back of the line). Owners become waiver hawks when a player they deem as valuable to their team is going to clear waivers and they get up early in the morning to pick up the player moments after he becomes available as a free agent. This strategy allows the owner to not sacrifice his waiver order when picking up the player.
❓Example
"Brad is a real waiver hawk.
Yeah I saw he picked up Jones right after midnight."

🔘Snack
◻️An attractive person
A snack is a person who looks attractive, almost tasty, which makes you want to eat him up, much like an actual snack.
It became popular in the late-2010s and is most often used in the club when on the prowl for someone to hook up with. It is also used online, especially when people post thirst traps on social media.
Snack may also appear as "snacc," which is an intentional misspelling to add emphasis, similarly to "thicc" and "thick." While the term is typically used as a noun, some may use it as an adjective the same way as "sexy." For example, "Wow, you lookin' snacc!"
❓Example
"If you need me I'm gonna be working on that snack in the black dress over there."
