He thought he was Italian

An anti-semitic dog whistle phrase. Used when encountering someone who is Jewish. It is a play on the "Italian's aren't Jewish" joke, see the relevant family guy skit. The phrase itself is ironically derived from the title of a song, He Thought He was Italian by The Barcelona Gypsy Klezmer Orchestra, this song is a very Jewish, Klezmer song. It is unclear whether the two "He's" mentioned in the title are two different people(ie, someone thought that another person was Italian and they were actually Jewish) or if it is both the same man(ie, a person from Italy is unaware of their Jewish ancestry.

"Italian music. Yeah right. He thought he was Italian."

KMC

A portmanteau of KYC(an anti-money laundering process where you fork over your ID to a crypto or stock exchange platform) and KMS/KYS meaning to kill ones self. The portmanteau refers to the act of using a regulated crypto or stock exchange for illegal activity namely money-laundering. In money-laundering communities, this is considered suicidal, hence, "KMC".

"Man, bitcoin mixer's don't use real encryption, it's just a useless shell game. Don't wanna KMC bro."

"Use coinbase. Nah, don't wanna KMC bruh."
