Patrickcide

The act of performing so badly at work that you are virtually ensuring your own dismissal, named for a guy called Patrick.

Tad committed Patrickcide by failing to show up at work less than 50 minutes late for 17 consecutive days, being drunk most of the time, and telling everyone who he'd fire if he were the boss.

butt cruise

Walking around looking for discarded cigarette and cigar ends that can still be lit and smoked.

I saw an ill-dressed man walking with his eyes cast down, occasionally stooping to examine and pick up a length of discarded cigarette, and I knew the man was on a butt cruise.
