The term borrows from video game &ldquo;lore&rdquo; (the backstory and world-building that gives characters depth) and reframes it as something you accidentally spill all over someone like a dropped smoothie.</p> <p>LAOWANG&rsquo;s take: this one is having a real moment because it captures something universal—everyone knows that one friend who meets a stranger at a party and immediately dives into their childhood trauma, three exes, and why they don&rsquo;t talk to their cousin anymore. The humor is self-aware; people are now ironically labeling their own overshares as &ldquo;lore-dumping&rdquo; before anyone else can call them out.</p>
