Hey! I decided to compile a list of things that we need to come up with words for. That way, the next time we see each other we can work on them:
1. A joke that relates to gender. For example: "I was driving and I got lost, but I couldn't stop and ask for directions, because I'm a man!" It's basically any joke that implies some generic characteristic of being a man or being a woman. They're usually made by the opposite sex, especially when they're referring to their spouse. I'm thinking maybe a word similiar to "hoke".
2. A long, angry rant that includes a list of everything you have to do in the next couple of days. For example, "I have to write 2 papers tonight, then work on a presentation tomorrow night, then I have another paper and an exam on Friday!" This is usually done to impress people and show to the world how stressed out you are. Music majors do this the most, so maybe it should involve them somehow.
3. A Tritaha done for a situation. It's not actually directed towards a person, but just something that happens. For example, the lights flicker in a room, everybody exchanges glances. It's like a Tritaha, but it isn't, because there's no Think Horrible involved.
4. When you're sitting somewhere and you accidently make eye contact with somebody and it's really awkward so you just look away. This is worse when it happens more than once.
That's all for now, let me know what you think!

When you're with someone, but texting someone else. The person you're texting says something hilarious, and you laugh out loud, but it turned out the person you're with said something that was kinda funny, and so they laugh along with you cause they think you're laughing at their joke.
Someone gives you a compliment, and so you feel like you have to give a compliment back, so you try to look for something nice on them.
For instance, "aw, cute sweater!" "Thanks! I like your.... shoes...."
