founder hounder

A person, usually a heterosexual female, who pursues relationships or hookups with the founders of tech startups. Like a jersey chaser for nerds. This term was used in the "Bachmanity Insanity" episode of "Silicon Valley."
Clive: "Hey Otto, how's the organic sustainable single-origin artisanal small batch cold brew nitro coffee roasting gig going?"
Otto: "Not great, man. It turns out that our proprietary method of using only high altitude Jamaican Blue Mountain beans filtered through the digestive tract of a civet cat is pretty expensive. So we set our price at $10 a cup, which barely covers our costs, but it's been hard to compete with these low-end stores like Four Barrel and Ritual that sell coffee for only $7, and the peasants here in SF actually drink that swill instead of ours. We went out of business."
Clive: "Oh well, at least you have Matilda. She's your ride-or-die-bitch, right?"
Otto: "Um, not really. She ditched me for this douchebag who is Co-Founder and CEO of this stupid app called Pewply."
Clive: "You mean the app where you take a picture of your feces and it gives you dietary recommendations based on their machine learning big data algorithms? Dude, Pewply is awesome. It totally helped me better come to grips with my gluten allergy."
Otto: "Yeah I'm sensitive to gluten too. But I can't believe she left me for this chode just because of his piece of crap - no pun intended - startup!"
Clive: "Connect the dots, man. Before you, she hooked up with the founders of Markitable, Zenalytics, Flooberli, Sharepnp, and Majikly. She's a classic founder hounder!"

Corey Hart it

To wear one's sunglasses at night or in a darker place where they serve no practical purpose and are used only as a fashion accessory. Corey Harting it has been shown in several scientific studies to have a strong positive correlation with level of douchebaggery. Comes from the Corey Hart song "Sunglasses at Night."
Jeff: "Come on man, it really shouldn't take a guy 2 hours to get ready to go out."
Jay: "Just a second, broskarooni, need to find my shades."
Jeff: "What? Why the hell would you wear sunglasses? It's 10pm and totally dark outside."
Jay: "Bro. They're my gettin' laid shades. If I put on the shades, best believe I'm gettin' laid. The ladies love these."
Jeff: "Shades or no shades, you haven't gotten laid in like 5 years, not counting that skank we paid $30 in Tijuana because we felt sorry for you. People already think you're enough of an obnoxious douche when you don't Corey Hart it."
Jay: "Don't be hatin' on my style. I'm gonna have my pick of any girl in the club tonight. Let's see...do I want a threesome with the Swenson sisters...or maybe I'll bang Alejandra, that new Brazilian model in town? So hard to choose! Don't worry bro, I'll make sure you get the DUFF, HAHAHAHAHA!"
Jeff: "Whatever you say, man. We both know the only girl you're going home with is jill, just like every other night. Just make sure you use a tissue instead of my towel this time, assclown."

ZIRP

Zero Interest Rate Phenomenon. In the period of near-zero interest rates that lasted from roughly 2008-2021, cash was cheap and many people - especially large tech companies - were throwing away money on silly things. Those things went away in 2022 and are now known as ZIRPs.
Googler 1: “Arrrgh I can’t fix this bug! Can you call the office fluffer down here to help get my mind off this for a bit?”
Googler 2: “Sorry chief, they got rid of the fluffers in ‘22. Just like the dog spa and the corporate Segways. Those were all ZIRPs, bud. Welcome to the age of austerity.”

Director: “Brilliant! This is your best idea since we won that Oscar for ‘D-Dayversity’, the story about the Normandy invasion except with all autistic pansexual transgender Kalahari bushpeople. You can wokewash like nobody I’ve ever seen!”
