A clone of the IBM PC/XT manufactured in the mid-1980's by the (now-defunct) Zenith Radio Corporation. Branded as "Easy PC", these were marketed by the university to students because they were slightly cheaper than standard PC clones. Unfortunately, any cost advantage was more than made up for by their lack of expandability - making them an inferior product which quickly earned the "Sleazy PC" moniker.
Zenith Radio Corporation of Chicago went bankrupt (Chapter 11) in 1999, with whatever was left of the assets going to the Lucky Goldstar (LG) of Korea. Zenith's history goes back to the early days of ttelevision, where the slogan was unofficially "the junk goes in before tha name goes on". Zenith bought the (also now-defunct) Heathkit and made a brief foray into computing in the 1980's, which led to rubbish like the Sleazy PC.

A brand of male undergarments, created as a clever bit of demographic marketing. The target demographic is male homosexuals in the United Kingdom - a narrow but apparently-profitable niche.
A brand of britches kissing up to the backsides of male homosexuals? It looks like demographic marketers (and their bumchums) will do anything, and kiss any butt, just to chase the pink pound in this country.

Prostitutes and call girls would be considered to be sex workers; strippers and porn stars might also be included.
The group of swivel servants sanding around outside, either on coffee break or on strike? Most likely, no... they don't give a f*ck about much of anything other than latching onto the taxpayer's teat every 30 April.

Any ruse or attempt to appear Canadian for marketing purposes in the Canadian market, if the product or its vendor are of primarily foreign origin.
There are various confusing designations such as "prepared in Canada" (for foreign foodstuffs packaged in Canada) or "cellared in Canada" (for wines packaged in Canada but not made from Canadian grapes). At some point maplewashing is a form of whitewashing, but the inherently-regional term "maple" infers wrapping foreign product in the Canadian flag.
An analogous tactic, "pinkwashing", is a form of whitewashing which hijacks women's or LGBT causes (such as breast cancer awareness) for demographic marketing.

An utterly hilarious Bob Rivers song parody of "Rock the Boat" (1973) by The Hues Corporation.
And no, it's all an urban legend. It's perfectly safe to drop the soap in the prison showers. It's just not safe to pick up the soap after... the jail showers are disgusting and you really don't want to know what's down there.
And no, it's all an urban legend. It's perfectly safe to drop the soap in the prison showers. It's just not safe to pick up the soap after... the jail showers are disgusting and you really don't want to know what's down there.
Ever since this prison term began
My tush has lived in fear of some big hairy man
And I'm nervous hanging out with these thugs and thieves
They're looking for a quiet place to corner me
I hope that I get out on probation
Before someone in that washroom gives me love deviation
So I'd like to know if
You get the notion
If I touch my toes will
You get the lotion
And I'd like to know when
You make a motion
And I'd like the guard to
Hear the commotion
Drop the soap
Don't drop the soap baby
Drop the soap
Not safe to bend over
Drop the soap
Don't tap my butt, bubba
Drop the soap...

In escort prostitution, a variation on the "cash and dash" scam.
A "cash and dash" provider accepts payment (as discreetly handing a call girl an unmarked cash-filled envelope up front is typical in the hobby) but then immediately bails out and leaves without providing any service.
The "dance and dash" scam is similar - some token "service" is provided which has nothing to do with what was advertised or what the client thought was being advertised.

The "dance and dash" scam is similar - some token "service" is provided which has nothing to do with what was advertised or what the client thought was being advertised.
The client thinks "full-service escort" means sex, the vendor suddenly decides (after taking the money) that no, it means one minute of hip-hop dancing followed by a beeline for the door. That's dance and dash.
In cash and dash, the client doesn't even get that much.
The so-called "escort review boards", despite their serious faults (such as being funded by ads from the very providers the users purport to "review") should be able to provide at least a heads-up if a serial cash-and-dash or dance-and-dash scheme is being operated by one individual local provider. These people change working names and contact info frequently, but patience for what is basically out-and-out fraud is limited.

A fictional plot device used in poorly-written erotica to explain why a character in a sex story that's the Ice Queen one minute is suddenly, unexpectedly an out-of-control nymphomaniac the next. The term "gay ray" for male-on-male stories is analogous.
The expression that some character must have been "hit by a Martian slut ray" is usually pejorative, and infers the sudden transition is somehow an unforgivable hole in the plot for which the author(s) must be slut-shamed at once.

From an actual post on SuperStories.Net: "Eugene took aim and pulled the trigger. A beam of light shot out of the Slut Ray and hit the jogger in the back. She slowed to a stop as a warmth spread from the spot the beam hit her. Her mind became clouded as her body changed. Her sports bra stretched around her expanding breasts. Her ass swelled and stretched her spandex running shorts..."
