Weiner's window 

Dramatic use of faux symbolism in which a show writer drops so many "symbols" that turn out to be red herrings that the characters themselves show disgust. The phrase itself references Season 5 of the popular American TV show "Mad Men" in which window symbolism was heavily employed throughout the season, ultimately culminating with a nude Roger Sterling literally mooning the audience in front of a large Manhattan apartment window.

Whereas Chekhov's gun dictates that objects, actors and actions should be used cleverly and for a reason, Weiner's window dictates that none of that matters. What does matter is the show writer's smugness and lack of empathy for the show's loyal fanbase.

An important distinctionbbetween Bay's helicopter and Weiner's window is that a work employing the former technique will actually be entertaining while the latter will not.
TV Critic 1: "Did you notice that color of Don Draper's vase is bright orange? It could symbolize 60s changing morality, the Beatles arriving at Shea Stadium, or sex."

TV Critic 2: "Or it could just be another fucking Weiner's window. I hate this fucking show. Let's watch Breaking Bad."

Werner shot 

This a shot in football that references Chelsea and Germany footballer Timo Werner. He is known for missing open chances and so when someone misses an open goal, its a Werner joke
Player 1: (misses from 2 cm away)
Opposition: Such a werner shot

Timo Werner Syndrome 

A condition whereby Chelsea fans fail to acknowledge and make excuses on how terrible a player is. They mostly tend to blame it on the manager's system

Anthony Weiner's Weiner 

Sent via Twitter to a college girl. Weiner couldn't say with certitude if it was his own weiner, but after a week or so admitted to sending the picture. Weiner is currently a Democratic Congressman, and the recipient of much envy due to his size below the belt.
Have you seen Anthony Weiner's weiner in that picture? I'm kinda jealous.

Warner's Bay Mafia 

The Warner's Bay Mafia was an infamous gang located in Warner's Bay, Australia. Known for their indiscriminate vandalism and graffiti, no one messed with the WBM.
"Hey man, did you see the bin the Warner's Bay Mafia burned?"
"Yeah I did, I'm so frightened of them, they're so cool"

Weiner's Circle

Hot dog joint in Chicago known for the mutual double homicide combat between patrons and employees. I had gone there in 2012 and held my own with with the barbs as Poochie didn't cuss that day -- the CBS show The Great Indoors had a character brought in there unknowingly aware of the mutual woof ticket profanity thrown at each other as Poochie herself appeared on the episode (that would got past the censors if they had the real Poochie.)

If you're from Utah you might have your virgin ears reamed. What ever you do, for the love of God don't fucking ask for a Chocolate Shake and don't put ketchup on a hot dog in eye shot. If you don't believe me about the attitude; look up their twitter as they have the staff giving the bird.
Rockaway, New Jersey tourist in Chicago, "Where is somewhere around here to eat?"
Local -- if you can handle the mutual double homicide combat there's a hot dog joint called Weiner's Circle
Rockaway Tourist, "Okay I will check it out."
Walking in and orders a hot dog, then someone in the line orders a chocolate shake.

The tourist wishing she had some brain bleach as she heard them insult her with reference to a Nuclear Power Plant reference.
