The Big Grin

A clueless, Manic-depressive moron who is always "in your face". This is one of those guys that you carefully try to avoid at social gatherings because they have no social grace. They will babble on about how great their life is one minute and how much it sucks to be them the next.
They want to take on the world, but then they don't have time for it. They get mad at you when you remind them of their commitments, as they've moved on to bigger things in their head.
The Big Grin cornered me last night and told me all about the big promotion he got at work, when I agreed that his life was good he told me about the long hours and how it sucks to be him.
When I remined him of the paperwork he had due, he got angry at me because he had since gotten bigger and better things to do.

Captain Woodie

1) Refers to a part which serves no constructive purpose, but desires to lead.
2) Leadership by focusing on why we failed rather than on how we can do better to succeed.
3) Lack of planning, communication, insight, and follow-up. A bad leader who talks a good game but does nothing to achieve the goal then brags about how close we came to success and blames bad luck for the loss.
Captain Woodie came to run the meeting, but only talked about how much he loved being in the Marine Corps. Consequently, nothing got done and no decisions were made. We wasted an afternoon because of the wood!

Everyone was pissed that we’d failed to meet our objective, and then Captain Woodie told us that there were just too many obstacles and we’d have to beat our heads against the wall for a long time before we could expect to win.

We could have been better prepared for the competition, but no one planned any training, or told us anything. After the race, while we were trying to figure out how to get home, a captain woodie came out and told us how we could have won if we’d had just a bit more luck

dash trash

Contract workers hired for a technical position typically when a company is in the midst of downsizing or off-shoring its labor force. Called dash trash since to distinguish them from regular employees they are given an extra letter and a dash in front of their e-mail name.
t-puja just hung up on a customer, but what can you expect, she's just dash trash.

saab

1) A terrorist's car.
2) A car for people who can't quite afford a real yuppie car.
3) A car for people who think that they deserve more than what they have, but can't quite justify it. i.e: lower to middle level managers who got their jobs to keep them away from important processes & relationships that they tend to destroy.
1) Ahmed wired the semtex to the underside of his Saab before driving into the train station.
2) But daddy, I really wanted a beamer! All my friends have beamers, and we were going to make a beamer circle around the mall. I might as well be driving mom's volvo, except for the dents and dried blood from all the people she's hit.
3) Yesterday I told bill that he's have to start coming in late occasionally because my quarterly report has space for things that need improvement and I can't think of anything to put there. So, I told him to buy a Saab.

Camry

A hadjimobile. The car most preferred by Indian h1b visa holders who come to the U.S. to steal technology jobs.
kowshit tailgated everyone on the highway in his new Camry because he considered himself too important to have to change lanes.
He told the arresting officer that he was an Indian programmer on an H1b visa and therefore not subject to our laws.

Times of India

A communist rag that passes itself off as the mouthpiece of an allegedly democratic country.
Their writings typically challenge the soverign power of other counties without the opportunity for rebuttal. Propoganda is a mild word compared to the yellow journalism they are known for thoughout the world.
The touble is, that without the Internet and the value that it avails without substance, credibility or the test of time honoured history this rag has little credibilty. Even so, it is heralded as the voice of a people not far removed from anarchy and cared for still by other nations. A cry from a child who does not yet even understand why it is crying, but imposing itself as the savior of the millenium.
I read in the Times of India, how they are so much smarter than us, it's a pity we didn't happen upon them while we were yet still ameoba; turbans and all, they seemed to possess the power to lift us out of the ooze while still being fed and nurtured by those nations that they now declare they saved.
