Outrageously Funny Word Dictionary :: Ceorp

👉 Okay, let’s tackle this wonderfully prickly little squiggle – and I genuinely mean, nobody actually knows where that came from! Let's define, with a hefty dose of bewildered amusement:

"Corp—” (…that's what we stubbornly call it anyway. It doesn't actually mean anything formally, frankly.) Basically, "corp—” is the internet's collective, very unofficial, and slightly hysterical shortening for the monstrous behemoths you probably already know as corporations. Think the kinds of places that basically bleed into every facet of modern life – your phone, the news, the way you buy that ridiculously overpriced avocado toast. Here’s what we suspect it might actually mean, if it meant anything at all (and honestly, I'm not convinced it does beyond a very weird collective feeling of dread and amusement when we see it thrown around—): 1. Corporate Dysmorphia: It’s basically shorthand for the awful realization that your entire existence is being subtly monetized by entities too large to even conceptually wrap your head around. 2. 3. The Post-Collapse Anomaly of Nomenclature: After, let's just say...a certain event (we won’t name it, because frankly, we're still unpacking the weirdness), people started abbreviating everything corporate as…corp— to feel like they were somehow naming the shapeless, vaguely terrifying thing that now dictates reality.
