R 'n R
An abbreviation used by the US Army meaning Rest and Recreation, Rest and Recuperation or Rest and Relaxation. Frequently referred to by troops as I ‘n I (Intoxication and Intercourse), it refers to the practice of rotating combat troops out of the front line to give them an opportunity to relax and unwind thereby reducing the impact of ptsd. The term was certainly used during the Korean and Vietnam Wars but most likely dates from World War II.

Pogue
Originally US Army slang, it was used as a term of contempt for a non-combat soldier. The term, derived from the Gaelic 'Póg' meaning arse, carries with it an implication of unmanliness, homosexuality, even paedophilia, since Hershey bars and other types of candy are known as ‘pogue bait’. Demonstrating the complete contempt of the combat soldier for any kind of REMF, it was probably first used troops of Irish descent but quickly became widespread as unpopular WASP officers would not know what it meant.
In Gaelic one use of the word would be in the phrase ‘Póg mo thóin’ (pronounced pogue mahone) meaning 'kiss my arse'

That pedo journalist out here on assignment is stockin' up on pogue bait again.
That pogue, REMF, asswipe wrote me up when he caught me jerking off in the latrine!

Pseudo Celebrity
A pseudo celebrity is someone who has become famous without having done anything to deserve it, they are the wasters, the drones and parasites of humanity. Having achieved nothing worthwhile, they are best described as the liggers and Kim Kardashians of this world, the braindead youtubers, talentless and lacking any sort of distinction. They are the self-centred and egotistical nonentities for whom princess syndrome is a way of life. The only reason they are celebrities is because they have more egotisticalbullshit than normal people, they are pseuds, thus pseudo celebrities.

Bastard
Besides the usual usages of a child born out of wedlock and a suitable name for someone you don’t like, there are other meanings as well. At one time it was used to refer to a hybrid device or one adapted from one purpose to another; in 1517 it was used to refer to second rate Spanish Sack wines and in engineering it refers to a type of coarse-toothed file.

Krispy Kreme
Overpriced American crap masquerading as doughnuts. The price is ridiculous, the taste is disgusting and they are usually eaten by people with no sense of taste. Coming in numerous “flavours”, presumably to get people to continue trying them to find one that tastes other than sickeningly sweet. The company was founded by Vernon Rudolf in Winston-Salem, North Carolina in 1937 and has gone worldwide and downhill ever since. Apart from its revolting products the company is also well-known for its IPO and accounting scandals and is very quick to slope shoulders and drop the blame on someone. At the time of writing interest has been shown in its acquisition by the private German investment company JAB Beech, interesting as the company appears to have no outlets in Germany and, if they’ve got any sense, it never will have.

Tom
Tom derives from Cockney Rhyming Slang and like so many other rhymes it has been shortened to just the initial word of the phrase e.g. bread and honey (money) became bread. However, unlike many others, Tom has multiple meanings which often can only be inferred from how it is used. Some of the common meanings of Tom are listed below:
1. Tom from Sir Thomas More = whore;
2. Tom from Tom Tit (old English name for a Blue Tit) = shit;
3. Tom from Tomfoolery = joolery (jewellery); incidentally don’t blame me for their pronunciation.
4. Tom from Tom Cat = twat/prat;
