seagull administration

A form of administration in which the performer drops in, squawks, deposits a lot of shit, and flies off to new parts.
Our unesteemed boss conducted seagull administration: he liked to drop in occasionally, randomly criticize without inquiry or understanding, and then go on, never to bring up the matter again. We came to regard that as part of the on-the-job entertainment.

piledriver

A piledriver is a mixed drink consisting of two jiggers of vodka in a tall glass of prune juice. Probably came from the screwdriver, similarly made but using orange juice as the base. It is popularly used either as a cure for constipation or as a "dare drink."
I'm constipated, so gimme two piledrivers and a half-hour.

dinosaur

A person who has been employed for a long time by a corporation, university, or organization. Generally used disparagingly by younger persons who regard this person as a general obstacle to progress, or one to their own personal advancement. The expression implies obsolescence on the part of the person so described, whether factually or not.
The English Department was filled with dinosaurs who were on the faculty for more than thirty years. They should set a maximum limit on the number of years a person may be on the faculty!

Hoosier Sebastianism

A belief in the imminent return of Bob Knight to Indiana University; soon to be followed by a National Championship.
Through this overly long Dark Night of the Basketball Soul, Heather was consoled by her Hoosier Sebastianism belief: soon Bob Knight would return; soon the Big Ten forces of evil would be vexed; soon the Red and White would triumph!

Daughtery Principle

The Daughtery Principle, named after American football coach Duffy Daughtery (1915-1987) of Michigan State University, states that: “A tie is like kissing your sister.” While both evolutionary psychology theory and sociological theory would predict that this familial phenomenon would lead to osculatory outcome dissatisfaction, it has not been systematically tested except possibly in West Virginia and Vermont.
Football, basketball. and basketball have such a horror of the Daughtery Principle being enacted that play continues through overtime or extra innings until the tie is broken.
