Attention Purchase
by Based Fiend on Jan 16, 2023 14:38:49
When a guy so desperate for female attention he will use his
dad's credit card to donate $
100s to a random streamer, just to see his name on the screen or a "heart" on Youtube. Often found on Twitch cam streams and anything involving
pokimane.
virtue-purchase
by Father Hollywood on Dec 05, 2018 14:42:14
Similar to
virtue signalling but done by means of buying trendy goods or services so as to display one's sense of contrived self-superiority: items such as books by politically correct authors, garish artwork purported to save rain-forests, or
FairTrade coffee that makes the buyer feel woke; faddishly leftist buying habits that conform to
intersectionality and other expressions of socially popular SJW pseudoscience, especially popular among university students.
Example:
Asheleigh-Meghan isn't going to actually read
Michelle Obama's new book. She just bought it to put on the
coffee table in case one of her black classmates shows up unexpectedly. It's more of a virtue-purchase.
Pitty Purchasing
by sportsdude88 on Mar 16, 2010 15:12:10
A secret form of
manipulation commonly used by 4-14 year olds to get what they want. They often use this after receiving
bad news, going to do or have just done something hard, or after doing something good. They use
pitty as a good excuse to buy or do something that they would normally not be able to do or buy otherwise.
Example:
-Moooommmmmm, the dentist really hurt!!! Can we go to the toy store?
-No.
-Please........... It really hurts...............
Owwwww.......
-No.
2 minutes later
-I'm sorry for being so annoying....
I'm over it....Owwwww.
-Would you stop trying to get me to do
pitty purchasing. And we didn't even go to the dentist, you got a haircut.
-Awkward....
