barkalla

An almost universal way to say "thank you" in the North Caucasus, although used mainly by Avars and Chechens.
The old Chechen woman's arm was grazed by a shot from an angry Chechen jihadi's rifle, and she muttered "barkalla" as she was pulled out of harm's way by the Russian reporter.

subway Barbie

A woman who waits to get on the subway train to rummage in her pocketbook or shoulder bag for cosmetics and makeup when she could have done the same thing at home. Very annoying to the passengers seated immediately to the left and right of her, as she's elbowing those people in the ribs.
Man, I really get peed off at those subway Barbies! Can't they pretty themselves up at HOME?

phoning

What happens when you're stapling something and the staple doesn't completely penetrate to the other side of the document, resulting in a staple that has ends bent looking like a wired phone.
Loretta, could I get a better stapler please? This one keeps phoning on me!

Cheatham and Steele

Humorously, an imaginary law firm or other so-called professional service that's not on the up-and-up and does what their title suggests.
WTF? Why do I keep on getting this popup from Cheatham and Steele? I think there's some shifty law firm that's trying to put malware on my computer!

forty-five it

To angle oneself (does not necessarily have to be a forty-five degree angle) into an uncrowded area outside or inside a train or bus to gain an advantage in finding a good place to sit or stand.
Looks like I'm going to have to forty-five it before that bratty kid gets missile lock on my seat!
