Fosdick

Mildly derogatory reference to famous and hapless cartoon character 'Fearless Fosdick' by Li'l Abner, first appearing in 1942.

Look at Fosdick over there sniffing it out - what a buffoon!

Perkatory

That excruciating time in the morning while you wait until your coffee has brewed

Man, I was so hung over, I was in perkatory until that first cuppa java was ready

Scootski

Fun-loving builders who drop personal watercraft shells onto their scooters, eating a hybrid mode of transportation that turns heads and evokes a water-borne sense style onto city streets. See story on jalopnik site for more details.

Nick Stemple dropped an old Kawasaki Jet Ski shell onto a Suzuki 650 scooter to invent the new hybrid Scootski

Wokefishing

The phrase is a play on ‘catfishing,’ which means pretending to be someone you are not... to lure someone into a relationship. The issue is apparently enough of a problem that Vice, the achingly SJW online magazine, has devoted a lengthy article explaining what the problem is and interviewing “victims” of this cruel political dupery. - from RT - July 29th 2020

Ignore him, he's full of BS and just wokefishing you to try and get you into bed

Lurky Torontonian

A Toronto-specific word, as in when Torontonians stand around idly on their porches, sidewalks, tiny lawns, etc. and eyeball others who may not be like them, and when a non-Torontonian is suspected, squint their beady eyes and scrunch their weasel noses and point and open their mouths to utter an inaudible to humans scream – to alert other lurky Torontonians that someone unlike them is near; similar to the Invasion of the Body Snatchers.

I was passing through Riverdale last week when I noticed several lurky Torontonians staring at me, and when I paused, they all pointed and opened their mouths to utter some kind of weird noise.

WFO

Work from Office - as opposed to 'WFH' - Work from Home.

As people begin to start returning to their regular place of work in a reverse exodus from when they were forced to head home, increasingly they will notify their colleagues that they'll be 'WFO' ...working from the office.
