Function: noun
Date: 14th century
Etymology: Anglo-Paki, hwȳ ēow crien
There are many states and use cases, but the term 'y u crying' commonly refers to the act of refusing an alcohol beverage as a response to an emotional state in humans. The act of 'y u crying' has been defined as “a complex repudiation phenomenon characterized by a pseu
do-intoxicated state elicited by the assignee without any authentic or genuine aversion to excessive alcohol consumption”.[2]
A neuronal connection between the hepatic organ and the areas of the human brain involved with emotion has been established. No other animals are thought to produce a repudiation response to alcoholic beverages,[3] although this is disputed by some scientists.[4]
According to a study of over 300 adults, on average, men are affected by a ‘y u crying’ event two times every week, and women cry at least five times per week,[5] especially before and during the menstrual cycle, when ‘y u crying’ can increase up to 5 times the normal rate, often without obvious reasons (such as depression or sadness).[6] In many cultures, it is more socially acceptable for women and children to evoke a ‘y u crying’ event than with men.[7]
Three Types of 'y u crying' –
There are three different types of ‘y u crying’ apparent in individuals. The first of these three is a Basic ‘y u crying’ which is a pattern of refusal of an alcoholic beverage and avoidance of the perpetrator (e.g., alcohol procurer). Then, after repeated refusals, there is eventual acceptance of the alcoholic beverage. Self preservation is a main stimulant of the Basic ‘y u crying’. An Anger ‘y u crying’ is much like the Basic ‘y u crying’, however the assignee has already consumed excessive amounts of alcohol making refusal from the perpetrator unlikely – however, the assignee may clandestinely relegate additional alcoholic beverages to other unknowing victims. The Anger ‘y u crying’ also starts with a repudiation response, but explicit and high volume language may target the perpetrator to prevent continuous alcoholic beverage offerings. Even further alcohol consumption is possible by the assignee in this state as the perpetrator validates his excessive consumption by others. The third is the Pain ‘y u crying’ which unlike the other two typically affects the original perpetrator. The Pain ‘y u crying’ habitually starts with one loud vocal “DAMN” followed by periods of verbal ridicule of other surrounding individuals for intoxicated amusement. Common characteristics of the Pain ‘y u crying’ involve Top Ramen, Denny’s, extremely excessive use of instruments for producing a current of air (e.g., fans), prancing or making irregular movements on elevated apparatuses (e.g., coffee tables), uncontrollable moaning, restlessness, nausea, victim of Facebook defamation, excessive use of certain words (e.g., damn, huge, etc.), unconsciousness, unawareness of oneself and ones surroundings, sending unsolicited sexually explicit text messages (e.g, "sexting"), etc. Cultural differences of 'y u crying' –
There has been some evidence that 'y u crying' between cultures also has some differences. In countries such as Pakistan, Kazakhstan, etc., individuals elicit ‘y u crying’ more than that of individuals in other eastern European countries. It is unknown why this difference occurs culturally. [15]
Modern day use of ‘y u crying’ –
The term ‘y u crying’ has evolved over the last century. Typical uses of the term ‘y u crying’ extend from alcoholic consumption although much of today’s ‘y u crying’ proceedings continue to deal with alcoholic consumption. In general, it has been accepted that the term ‘y u crying’ be used by a perpetrator to simply denote disagreement and divergence with the assignee without regard to common sense, reality, accuracy, truthfulness, integrity, etc.
