Merch cut

When a live music venue takes a percentage of what a band or group earns from selling merchandise such as t-shirts and CDs at a gig. AKA stealing

Our band doesn't make as much money as we used to because a lot of venues are forcing us to take a merch cut.

Fairyfart

The sound that a Weegie makes when he's talking. It sounds like a fairy having a fart. Over the course of a sentence, the voice will go up and down at least two octaves.

1st Edinburgh resident: I think I hear a fairyfart. A Weegie has just come into the pub.
2nd Edinburgh resident: Oh no, you're kidding!
Quick let's get out of here before he orders a bottle of Buckfast and sets fire to the place.

Shitshow

A production or programme that is so full of shit, it oozes from every pore and orifice. It reeks of faecal matter. See Brexit

Jimi Hendrix

A god in mortal form, untouchable, the best guitarist ever.

Jimi Hendrix was the most talented and skilled guitarist in history or the future.

I don't believe in God, but I do believe in Jimi Hendrix.

Global South

A load of drivel dreamt up and defined by well-meaning, but politically and geographically illiterate morons who hate the West. The fact that the so-called Global South includes the People's Republic of China, which has the second largest economy in the world, illustrates the stupidity and vacuousness of such a concept.

The USA, the UK and the EU are considered part of the Global North and the People's Republic of China is considered part of the Global South.
