"arcana-pilled nopecel"
https://www.reddit.com/r/balatro/comments/1iimuy8/arcana_pilled_nopecel/
(Explanation: In the video game Balatro, arcana packs can be bought that contain tarot-themed cards can improve the standard playing card deck. Wheel of Fortune has a 1/4 chance of making a Joker card more powerful, but if it doesn't hit, the phrase "NOPE!" appears on screen instead. Many players spend money hoping for a hit, but continuously seeing NOPE! and running out of money.)
