MEME REFERENCE
Metronome
Use when someone or something repeatedly swings between two opposite moods, opinions, states, or choices.
- What it expresses
- Rapid alternation prevents a stable position from lasting.
- Example
- Your group chat changes from 'cancel the trip' to 'book it now' every hour, so you label each side of the metronome.
- When not to use it
- A person makes one considered change and then stays consistent; a single transition is not oscillation.
