Incel terminology is so horrible to try and explain. But yeah, for anyone confused, basically any word can be affixed with -cel (from celibate) and it “works” — e.g., numbercel, wordcel, gymcel, heightcel, narutocel, ycombinatorcel, etc.

Typically these would’ve been used by the incel community to describe why someone is an incel (e.g., “heightcels” supposedly being too short to be attractive and so on). Now, I see the terms being used not only unironically by actual incels but also ironically, usually on the fairly leftist/chapotraphouse-adjacent parts of twitter and such.
