Tattoos in a very visible area of the body. Originally used to describe knuckle tattoos, the term has broadened to inclued ink work on hands, neck, face, forearms, etc.
The term makes the obvious allusion to the fact that, in many segments of American Society, persons with the tattoos in question have somewhat limited career opportunities.
"As soon as she spotted my Job Killers, the interview was pretty much OVER"
"But I'm the most qualified candidate! Must be the Job Killers. Don't descriminate based on the colors of my skin!"
A somewhat derogatory name for the cities of Houston, TX and Baton Rouge, LA due to the mass influx of displaced New Orleans residents after the Hurricane Katrina disaster. The name alludes to the burden these evacuee communities have placed on the infrastructure of said cities. Many use the term to comment on the increased crime and welfare rates in Baton Rouge and Houston.
A friend of mine lives in Baton Rouge. He's hating it in New New Orleans.
You going to the concert in Houston? If you're going down to New New Orleans be sure to bring your body armor.

The mass evacuation, and the resultant massive traffic jams, in large portions of Texas preceeding the landfall of Hurricane Rita. Many people ran out of fuel and were forced to camp out on the side of major highways and fend for themselves.
Hurricane Rita (the "other" Hurricane) made a last-minute Easterly turn. Bad news for East Texas and West Louisiana. Good news for those camped out on highways further West in Texas.
My friends and I pretty much avoided the Texodus by taking tiny back roads.
