lanked

The feeling which occurs after one has stayed up past his sleep cycle such that the body has abandoned its "go to sleep" feeling and has shifted into a light buzz.

It is comparable to the lingering buzz that remains in the morning after a night of drinking, because the body is rather awake yet clearly not fully sober.
KATE: John, go to bed. Aren't you sleepy? You were dozing off at your desk a few hours ago.

JOHN: Yeah, but the sleepy part of my cycle is over. It's back into awake mode, so I'm lanked now.

intermediate bitch

not quite a basic bitch, but uninteresting nonetheless.

see also OKCupid.
"I'm really good at acronyms. My taste in music is pretty eclectic... I like the accordion waaay too much. I'm awkward. A saucy pocket pixie who loves to play dress up and go off on tangents. I'd die if I didn't have sriracha, coffee, tootsie rolls or my vintage map of Austin. I'm the only girl in my choir covered in tattoos. I also spend a lot of time thinking about food."

If this sounds like you, you may be an intermediate bitch.

rulebombing

Mass reporting of any violation of a rule while disrespecting the intent of the rule, just for the sake of getting something removed.
1. Someone posts a video of a political speech. There is no swearing; it could be on CNN.

2. The opponents of the person giving the speech mass report that video for containing "disturbing content," even though "disturbing content" is supposed to be something like, say, gore.

3. In reaction to the mass reports, moderators flag the video as 18+ or remove it entirely, just because of the rulebombing effect.

self-misconception

fire alarming

Misuse of a safety mechanism, like a fire alarm, danger hotlines or report buttons on a website, to censor speech without regard to the intent of the safety mechanism.

A type of rulebombing.

---

Fire alarming is a problem, because it:

(a) disrespects actual instances of dangerous events the mechanism is designed to prevent, and
(b) causes people who have to monitor uses of that safety mechanism to show skepticism to future uses of that safety mechanism, since the number of serious instances are diluted.
I posted a video critical of this girl's ideology on YouTube, but now all of her supporters are fire alarming me.
