6-7 ain't a word. It's an expression. Ditto rage bait, goblin mode, brain rot and vibe coding.

Same for NFT and AI

Goblin mode: I had to check this one out. I didn't know I needed to know this expression really bad. Specially given how often I use expressions in the same spirit in Portuguese, like "modo foda-se" (fuck-it mode).

Why was "hallucinate" so important in '23?
