Xnopyt is a term often referenced in The Resonance and other Resonite Team office hours, referring to frustrations encountered in their work.
The term originates as a nonsense word in Tom Scott's video "What Counts as a Word?"[1] (there pronounced with a uvular fricative, /kɾ̥nɔpɪt/). A viral edit featuring Tom screaming and disintegrating after saying the word[2] has led to some people defining it as "to disintegrate at the thought of something".[3] Resonite staff has adopted the word (with the alternate pronunciation [ʃnɔpɪt]) to refer more generally to annoyances; in office hour streams, a chat member may simply ask "xnopyt?" to prompt the streamer to talk about one of their recent frustrations.[4] The reversed version of the word, "typonx", refers to things that "make them reintegrate", i.e. things that they're glad about.[5]
