porpoise or prairie dog

"Hungy or not"

The phrase first began in Canada, where the action of eating a prairie dog was looked at as a desperate act, that one would only commit if they were insanely hungry, whereas being willing to go out and search out a harbor porpoise (although at the time, the split between a harbor porpoise and a normal porpoise wasn’t super well known, plus harbor porpoise or prairie dog sounds stupid) took a long time, so you wouldn’t want to be hungry.

These urban guard dogs are great at alerting us to mischief on the block, and are pretty too.

dog

In World of Tanks Blitz:

Mostly used by APAC (Asia Pacific) region players to describe bad/skill issue. Found in chat when the player gets salty/dies first, especially light tanks. Normally used by players that do not know much English and has limited vocabulary. Must not be confused with the kind nature of actual dogs, as the dog here does not refer to a compliment.
Decent English - That Grille 15 was a complete useless dog, camped and did 0 damage wtf.

Not very decent English - Grille 15 useless dog.

Poor English - Grille 15 dog uninstall nub camper.

A phrase that makes losing a game of hangman impossible when playing with one guesser. This is due to the usage of every letter in the English alphabet.
Person 1: Hey, you up for a game of Hangman?
Person 2: Definitely!
Person 1: Ok, the category is...
Person 2: seriously? You’re mistaking Hangman with Wheel of Fortune. No hints.
Person 1: Fine. It’s not like you can possibly lose anyway.
Person 2: I hate you. It’s “The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog,” isn’t it?
Person 1: How...?
Person 2: I’m a computer geek. I use it to make sure my keyboard is working because it contains every letter of the alphabet. And the only thing that makes it impossible to lose at hangman is if you have a phrase that has 18 letters out of the 26 in the alphabet in the least. Eliminating mistakes completely is a low blow.
