Centroll

A centrist who is full of bad faith arguments and is willing to defend any political stance so long as it’s awful. Typically, they’ve been entirely bought out by whatever corporation dominates their state.
My congressman thinks unions and minimum wage hikes are extremist, but he wholeheartedly supports private strikebreaker forces. He thinks renewable energy and EVs are a socialist pipe dream, but he voted yes to an additional $85B in oil subsidies. He called universal healthcare is overpriced, but voted to continue the war in Berserkistan.

Literally nobody in our district supports him because he’s a centroll.

Cosmetic Crit

In a video game, a critical hit that occurs when a normal hit would have killed the enemy. Typically annoying in that the crit would have been desired when the enemy was at full health.
An example of a cosmetic crit in Fire Emblem: Three Houses

*Felix goes to fight some enemy*
*He has a 40% chance of landing a crit on the enemy*
*first hit: 34 damage, enemy is almost dead*

Player: Dang, no crits.

*enemy punches Felix back, Felix takes 10 damage*

Player: Would have avoided it if he’d gotten the crit, but oh well.

Felix, going for the killing blow: I’LL CUT YOU DOWN!

Player: Seriously, Felix? You couldn’t have gotten that earlier?

Strighway

Much like a stroad is a street and a road combined into an unholy abomination, a strighway is a street and a highway combined into something even worse.

In other words, it has businesses on either side like a street, but heavy high speed traffic like a highway. It’s not effective as a street because of the intense car traffic and poor walkability, nor is it effective as a highway because of the density of exits and people getting off.

Features of a strighway include giant strip malls on either side featuring supermarkets and chain restaurants, 5-lane main roads with 2-lane frontage/access roads on either side, billboards for injury lawyers, and interchanges with other strighways that are impossible to navigate.
Examples of strighways include the Katy Expressway near Houston, I-35 through San Antonio/Austin, and George Bush Turnpike in DFW. There are also strighways outside of Texas, like the Jersey Turnpike, but they’re most prominent in Texas.

Salsa Blanco

Salsa that carries barely any heat, typically sold by most Mexican restaurants to white people who can’t handle spicy food. A play on words- the two most common kinds of salsa are salsa verde and salsa rojo, so with salsa blanco, they make up the three colors of the Mexican flag.
As much as I love the taco truck near my workplace, I wish they’d give me actual salsa instead of this uninspired salsa blanco stuff. I can handle the head, dammit.

Reefcore

A certain genre of live-action or animated movie that takes place on coral reefs, typically featuring humans who can breathe underwater. Often, the humans keep marine animals as pets or mounts and have interior decor featuring parts of marine life, such as coral heads and shark jaws.
Examples of Reefcore movies include Aquaman, Luca, Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, and the live-action Little Mermaid.
