Dead Tooth Theory

In a competition, there are two clear favorites and then some other garbage. One of the favorites has to take a loss. When this happens, the other competitors cannot be moved ahead of the loser simply because of the loss. See example for correct application of said theory.

Per Colin Cowherd:
I would still rank Alabama and LSU 1 and 2 after this weekend if the game is close. Just because one of these teams has to take a loss doesn’t mean that the other undefeated teams out there are suddenly better. It’s like a beauty contest where there are two clear favorites and another girl has a dead tooth. The results are announced and one hot girl edges the other. Does that mean that you drop the loser below the girl with the DEAD TOOTH?!?!?! NO!!! And Oklahoma State, Boise State, and Oregon all have a dead tooth. It’s the Dead Tooth Theory.

the Dead Tooth Dragon Panther

A farel mystical beast. Breed in the ominious dark of night, a creature half lizard, half cat escaped from the most foul depths of purgatory. With a fang so black and wicked it roams the South Side, causing tooth decay upon the innocent. As legend tells, if you can tame the brute he will spin you gold teeth from dental floss.

I crossed the Dead Tooth Dragon Panther, luckily I had some whiskey and like half a pack of cigs. He purred like a baby kitty and weaved me up this sick mouth piece. He is actually a pretty cool guy, were gonna hang sometime.

Toe Rag

A toe rag was originally a foot wrapping used, since mediaeval times up until the mid-nineteenth century, to protect the foot from chafing by boots or shoes. As these were, quite literally, rags they weren’t usually washed, and so with use they became very smelly until they were thrown away. Because of the similarity in smell, toe rag also became the name applied to dried, salted cod or other things with a strong, unpleasant, fishy smell. It didn’t take that long before the name was applied to someone who was an obnoxious, unpleasant OIC.

1 “Socks! Those aren’t socks you smelly git, they’re toe rags!”
2 “What have you been cooking? Smells like toe rag!”
3 “I can smell ‘er fanny from ‘ere, proper toe rag.”
4 That Heale Malcolm is a right toe rag.

Eternity leave

When some resigns or retires from a job, they are on "eternity leave". This can also refer to someone who has passed away, especially someone who worked somewhere for a long time, retired/resigned, then passed away later.

Oh I'm sorry, you didn't know that Kelly is on eternity leave? She resigned and moved to Hawaii!

With regrets I would like to inform you that my boss is officially on eternity leave. I will never see or hear them again. Ever.
