firsties
Childish priority call
Firsties is playful slang for claiming first place or priority, especially online where being the first to comment carries mock prestige: Firsties! I can't believe I'm the first one here.
The childish -ies suffix signals the triviality of the achievement.
Sometimes used offline when grabbing the front seat or last slice of pizza.
