indiaspora

Refers specifically to the diaspora of people from India and South Asia mostly into Europe and North America, and occurring primarily in the late 20th and early 21st centuries.

The recent indiaspora has had an obvious impact on media demographics in the United States as more and more South Asians are appearing on TV and Film in non-stereotypical roles.

Indiespirational

Having a quality of inspiration, or an inspiring nature, utilizing generic sounding indie music and exaggerated, yet understated aesthetics. The music will have an uplifting tempo, will contain a folky, semi-exotic instrument such as a banjo or mandolin, and carry an unnecessary amount of whistling and group "woah-oh-oooh's." The aesthetic will have far too many quick cuts in the editing, lens flares, rack focuses, and inserts of people being unnaturally at ease. Many companies have taken advantage of the indiespirational approach to marketing, in an attempt to seem more family-operated.

Wow! That Wal-Green's commercial sure was indiespirational! I feel like they're part of my family. Their products MUST be quality.

Toe Rag

A toe rag was originally a foot wrapping used, since mediaeval times up until the mid-nineteenth century, to protect the foot from chafing by boots or shoes. As these were, quite literally, rags they weren’t usually washed, and so with use they became very smelly until they were thrown away. Because of the similarity in smell, toe rag also became the name applied to dried, salted cod or other things with a strong, unpleasant, fishy smell. It didn’t take that long before the name was applied to someone who was an obnoxious, unpleasant OIC.

1 “Socks! Those aren’t socks you smelly git, they’re toe rags!”
2 “What have you been cooking? Smells like toe rag!”
3 “I can smell ‘er fanny from ‘ere, proper toe rag.”
4 That Heale Malcolm is a right toe rag.

Eternity leave

When some resigns or retires from a job, they are on "eternity leave". This can also refer to someone who has passed away, especially someone who worked somewhere for a long time, retired/resigned, then passed away later.

Oh I'm sorry, you didn't know that Kelly is on eternity leave? She resigned and moved to Hawaii!

With regrets I would like to inform you that my boss is officially on eternity leave. I will never see or hear them again. Ever.
