Cletus: Hey JaQuan check it out, that tea-drinking red-coat with the funny accent is yelling about how the working man should rise up and demand the government take his rights away.
JaQuan: *hearty Southerner laugh*. Typical POME (pronounced pomm-ee)

Get the POMEmug. Instead of waiting in line for a mile or four at a congested off ramp, driving as close to the junction/barrier to the exit in a faster lane and darting ahead of the lineup when there is a large enough gap created by a transport trucker or typical Houston driver who is distracted by the bowl they are packing with one hand while texting with the other hand.
A perfectly executed Houston shuffle is when the shuffler's vehicle rear does not protrude into the previous lane, they did so without going over a solid white and/or pylons (as 12 sometimes issue tickets solely for poorly executed shuffles), and vehicles behind cannot get offended because after all they created a 4-car-legnth gap ahead of them that was ripe for a Houston shuffle.

Rochelle-Alexandria: Hey that's the line for the off ramp we need, I guess we gotta wait in line for 15 minutes.
BHSLF: Naw girl! I'll just do a Houston shuffle. Like threading a needle you just gotta find the right gap ahead of a slower or distracted homie. Then we'll hit the exit in 30 seconds instead and I won't feel bad because we are using all available space.

Get the houston shufflemug. A Taiwanese Filibuster when a second or third party snatches the documents away from the principal signing them, creating a highly symbolic situation that is quite pointless because they can just print another set of documents to be signed in like 2 minutes. The symbolism is highly symbolic, thus creating the Taiwanese Filibuster. This term is based on that time in May, 2024 when Guo Guowen, a Member of the Taiwanese Parliament, swiftly snatched a legal Bill's documents and made a dramatic dash to prevent it from being passed, as shown on an online video.
Mr. PHBL: We are pleased to present you this law to be promulgated, Sir.
Sir: I am pleased to sign this.
Guo Guowen: I AM GOING TO SNATCH THESE DOCUMENTS IN PROTEST.
Mr. PHBL: *facepalm* oh golly what do we have here, a Taiwanese Filibuster. Toby, can you please re-print this 18 page document so Mr. Sir and us can sign it before another lunatic comes in here.
Sir: Huh.
Sir: I am pleased to sign this.
Guo Guowen: I AM GOING TO SNATCH THESE DOCUMENTS IN PROTEST.

Get the Taiwanese Filibustermug. Named after a radical leftist political party in Canada that hates budgets and loves taking it easy, the NDP. An NDP lunch is an early-starting and inordinately lengthy lunch period taken by the NDP's core supporters: government, non-profit, make-work, and NGO workers who have lots of free time during normal work hours.
An NDP lunch will start before 11:30am and can end no earlier than 1:45pm.
The NDP lunch, previously a luxury reserved only for managerial level employees, became accessible to all level of worker and social assistance beneficiary when work from home was imposed during the Rona. The popularity of the NDP lunch is one of the many reasons why government work-from-home employees are violently resisting showing up to a workplace three (3) days a week where NDP lunches are not tolerated.

Liam: "Hey comrade let's go for lunch! I don't have meetings until 2."
Cornelius: "Bro I am not your comrade, it's 10:45 am, and I am not a work from home government worker. I cannot take an NDP lunch on a work day which for me is 6 days a week because the NDP keeps taxing my business."

Get the NDP lunchmug. A simple well drink cocktail comprising of double or triple vodka with a conservative splash of cranberry juice served on the rocks in a short glass with a straw that is consumed on a work or school-night.
Origin: in the fifth task of the eighth season of Celebrity Apprentice (2009), retired NBA champion Dennis Rodman got fired because he was ineffective on the task due to a hang over from consuming several vodka-diulted vodka-cranberries with Tom Green the night before. Thus the Dennis Rodman cocktail.

Lashaya: Hi Carlton happy hump day and welcome back to my bar. What would you like to drink tonight sweetie?
Carlton: I want to drink to forget even though I have an important work day tomorrow. I would like a Dennis Rodman (cocktail) please.
Lashaya: Triple vodka with a shot of cran in a short glass and a straw for maximum efficent sippage you got it.

Get the Dennis Rodman (cocktail)mug. A motivated criminal apprehension specialist typically (but not always) on the 2nd shift or 3rd shift of a police force's patrol unit. Engages with the community hourly, gets involved, and builds bridges by jumping over fences and taking down thugs. A Street Goon protects the community first then asks/answers questions later.
Rochelle: that bald white patrol cop looks like Mackey from The Shield and has a really mean-looking resting face. I do not know if he is a good cop or not.
JaQuan: he is a good cop: he's what we call a Street Goon. When he's not sleeping, cooking 8-egg+rice+tuna burritos, and benching weights ín his garage between shifts he is protecting our ghetto-ass hood. He is the quintessential Dennis Rodman of police officers--the garbage man that does the dirty work nobody else wants to do.
