hippocrate

Definition

A delightfully misspelled version of 'hypocrite' that has taken on its own life in internet discourse. Describes someone who condemns behavior in others while enthusiastically engaging in the same actions themselves, proving that spelling errors can sometimes capture the essence even better than correct words.

Example Usage

Sarah called me out for being late to our meeting, then showed up 30 minutes late to the next one—total hippocrate move.
