Silver Alert 

A verbal warning shouted at onlookers when an old person's story has begun to wander off. Similar to an Amber Alert, but different.
Grandpa: "Bears? You want to hear a story about bears? So I was driving out on route 6, just past the old red barn, which used to be green before they painted it yellow, which i knew because i used to pick raspberries in the field behind the barn, which used to be a corn field after it was a civil war battlefield, blah, blah, blah..."

Jason: "Silver Alert!! He's lost the point again. Quick, everyone look around and try to find it!!"

Grandpa: "and coming back to my original point, I choked a bear to death with my bare hands."

SILVER Alert 

The goal of a SILVER Alert is to instantly galvanize the entire community to assist in the search for and the safe recovery of a senior citizen who has become missing often due to Altimeters.
Last week Mabel was found standing in front of her former home but thankfully she was recovered quickly due to the enormous success of the SILVER alert.

Hate Draft

1. Select a player (real or fantasy) during a sports draft to spite or anger one or more of your opponents because they had intended to select him/her.

2. Select a player (real or fantasy) during a sport draft to put one or more of your opponents at a strategic disadvantage.
1. Billy hate drafted Chad OchoCinco because he knew Sam had wanted him since he is from Cincinnati. Billy already had plenty of players to fill that position but wanted to make sure Sam didn't get him.

2. Billy hate drafted Peyton Manning because he was the only good quarterback left and he knew Sam had been planning on drafting him.

Utility beer 

Utility beer is the beer you keep around for the day-to-day moments when beer is a necessity to assist in pedestrian activities (golf, plumbing, yardwork, babysitting, staff meetings, Zoom calls). For the beer snob it is the beer you save for neighbors when they drop in at 3 p.m. on a Tuesday. It is differentiated from the actual high-end beer you save for special events, holidays, and special tastings.
Person 1: Dave, did you bring along those hazy craft IPA's so we could drink while cleaning Lyle's pool?
Person 2: Nope. I just have a bunch of utility beer that Steve dumped on me. Good enough for this. It is only 10:30 a.m.
