10 Internet Slang Phrases Defined By A Baptist
Rachel Schnitzer

We all know that Baptists have their own way of life, and if we had to define these 10 phrases, this is how it would go:

1. Lit

When you happen to wake up early and have extra time to get ready and then you show up to service looking like a 10. Normally followed by good attendance at church and people there to actually see you dressed up. Topped off with an amazing sermon that applies to your life and your friends asking if you want to go to lunch.

2. Mic Drop

When the sermon starts and you realize the song you just sang applies perfectly to what he is about to preach.

3. Basic

When you and your friends all show up on Sunday night service exactly on time in jean skirts and Dunkin' Donuts in your hands.


4. Goals

When a guest preacher and his wife walk in with a perfect family and are all dressed better than anything you own. This is normally followed by the husband being a phenomenal preacher and the children sitting perfectly through the service. Brownie points if the wife sings.

5. I Can't Even

When you get to the last day of revival and you are not even sure who you are anymore, where you are getting your energy from, or what sleep is, but you know it's almost over.


7. Bye Felicia

What happens after you hang out with people and they realize how much you love Jesus.


8. Literally

When the preacher is using bible verses that literally describe your situation and you aren't ready to give in and listen to him yet.


9. Fangirling

When a cute single guy shows up at your church multiple times in a row.


10. The Feels

When the service was convicting and you are trying to keep it together because church is ending.

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
