Zombieing

I am listing this because my good friend's nickname is Zombie, due to a sleepy nature.

I heard about this dating term 'Zombieing', Monday evening and other related terms on

Zombieing What is it? Here's the first documented definition I could find: "To be zombied is to have someone you care about disappear from your life altogether only to have them bring a relationship back from the dead with an out-of-the-blue text or interaction on social media." I would add to that it doesn't have to be a text or social media contact -- that's the easiest way to dip a toe in the water, but some people go full-blown -- a phone call, an old-school letter, or showing up in person somewhere you know they'll be. The point is -- a person from your past rises from the metaphorical dead and wants back in your life.

In Christ, if mistakes were made in an initial parting of ways, and the Holy Spirit is leading us toward renewed relationship, I am for a fix; otherwise I would flee from the Zombie!!!

The plight of a modern man?



Paraphrased comments

DrRNM: (Satirical) Is that Maple Ridge?

DrRNM: The 'white trash' country music fits the video.

X: Yes, that could be Pitt Meadows.

(I, we are not without sympathy, but we found this video with the music, very humourous)

Z: I am impressed with the ability to stay upright during such fluid and intense movement
     through a state of altered consciousness.

Thank you, Arne...

Whatever...

Whatever is a slang term meaning "whatever you say" , "I don't care what you say" or "what will be will be". The term is used either to dismiss a previous statement and express indifference or in affirmation of a previous statement as "whatever will be will be".[1] Michael McKenna (2012-11-04), Doris Day - Whatever Will Be, Will Be (Que Sera, Sera) (w Children's Chorus) - 1964 version, retrieved 2016-04-13

'Whatever' is often a red flag term when I hear or read it, especially during an argument. Not claiming intellectual perfection here, but seems to me, 'whatever' is sometimes used to dismiss key intellectually, uncomfortable,  premises within a discussion and debate.

Dismissed premises as opposed to dealt with premises.

This just in from Facebook.

X: Sometimes I think I'd have fun being a protester.

DrRNM: Meet lots of women.

(I realize there are plenty of protesters that are men)
