Get the Splitmug. A derogatory trade term. Describing installer(s) of basic air conditioning split systems.
See also: “split bashing”
These types of systems are usually installed in a domestic dwelling and typically comprise one indoor and one outdoor unit, with interconnecting pipes and wiring. The term likely originated from the electrical equivalent known as “house bashing”
It insinuates that specific air conditioning engineers may lack understanding of the principles of refrigeration and other more complicated systems within the sector due to the simplicity and low risk involved with “split bashing” (installing small air conditioning systems).
An experienced “split basher” should be able to complete installation within one day and may see to conduct it with a laid back and optimistic “that’ll do” attitude, utilising only the minimum tools, equipment and effort necessary to get it to work. As a result, a true “bashed split” install may often look untidy or half finished and lack proper pipe and cable management systems.

Get the Split Bashermug. split-it

Definition:
To luxuriate in a moment of solitary pleasure; typically involving a freshly made bed, an artisanal coffee, a feline companion of discerning temperament, and the climactic indulgence of self-intimacy. The phrase draws whimsical reference from the anatomical act of splitting it, a metaphorical nod to the bifurcation of the labia during said solitary encounter.
Etymology:
Modern British slang. A playful conflation of genteel self-care and unabashed self-love. Said to have originated from the ritualistic ‘breaking-in’ of one’s own bed with all the essentials : cat, caffeine, and climax.

Get the Split-itmug. n. a case where the attractiveness of a person (you know or don't know) will shift drastically within a month or even week, causing your rating for them to go up or down, and making you unsure of how attractive the person really is.
"What the? Last time I saw her, I would've given her at least a 6.5 or 7, but today she's like a 3. She must have split rating syndrome.

Get the Split Bongomug. The 60/40 split is a form of relationship dynamic, statistically one of the most, if not THE most stable relationship dynamic. It is where the man is the primary earner and pays 60% of the bills, and the woman is the secondary earner who pays 40% of the bills. In terms of chores and childcare, they are split evenly among the couple. This is not to be confused with the 40/60 split where the man pays 40% and the woman pays 60%.
Statistically, a relationship with a male primary earner, female secondary earner, and equal sharing of household responsibilities, is the most stable - with low rates of adultery, low rates of divorce, and high rates of reported marital satisfaction. This is because it strikes a balance with the best of both worlds between traditional and egalitarian relationships, meeting it in the middle.
Kids may or may not be put in daycare, depending on the couple's preferences. Sometimes the government may choose paid transferable parental leave, which is also a good option.
