Luftg'selcht

A humorous Austrian slang term describing a person who appears dazed, slow, or mentally foggy — like someone who’s high, but isn’t. The word literally means “air-smoked,” a twist on the Austrian dialect term g'selcht (smoked meat), implying someone’s brain has been "smoked" by air alone.

Origin:
Derived from Austrian dialect. Refers to the “Luftg’selchter Pfarrer von St. Thomas am Blasenstein” — a mummified priest on display in Upper Austria. The term playfully evolved to describe the zombified state of being slow and mentally absent, minus any substances.
– “Oida, wie lang brauchst du zum Schuach binden – bist heut wieder komplett luftg’selcht oder was?”
– "Hawarra, des is a Radlweg und koa Parkplatz. Hoffentlich bist wenigstens angsoffn und ned anfoch luftg'selcht!"

Luftg’selcht

Definition:
A uniquely Austrian slang term used to describe someone who acts slow, confused, or spaced out — like they’re “smoked” but without actually smoking anything. It’s like their brain is “smoked by air” (Luft = air, g’selcht = smoked). Basically, you’re mentally foggy, distracted, or just plain slow — but sober.
Origin:
From the Austrian dialect g’selcht meaning “smoked” (like smoked meat). The term “luftg’selcht” jokingly refers to someone who behaves as if they were smoked (high or dazed), but only by air — no substances involved. Inspired by the “Luftg’selchter Pfarrer von St. Thomas am Blasenstein,” a famous mummy in Upper Austria.
“Am Montag bin ich voll luftg’selcht, brauch erstmal Kaffee.”

“Bist du heut wieder luftg’selcht oder was?”

“Der Hans ist komplett luftg’selcht, der schaut dauernd in die Luft.”

Pinky Sanchez

Pinky Sanchez: a pinky Sanchez is when you're playing a prank on one of your buddies and you pull the butt plug that you've been wearing all day out of your booty and you lay it under their nose and take a selfie picture with them. Or it could be a vibrator dildo that you may have been smashing your weed in in your center console that countsBut it can't be just any butt plug. It has to be one that looks like a penis It has to have the veins of a penis. It is not an actual pinky Sanchez if you use something that's shaped like a popsicle stick or cylinder because when those people get the photograph, they won't know what they're looking at. They'll be like what is that under Wesley's nose I don't get it. My name is Pinky Savage and I've been doing this praying for the better part of 30 years. The first pinky Sanchez was done 30 years ago and it was a guy that had jumped me from behind and was beating the hell out of me the course of battle I was able to turn things around and win the fight, and I was so pissed off and exhausted that I reached in my pocket and pulled the dildo out that I had stash my weed in, and I laid it under his nose, grabbed his cell phone, took a photograph of the penis under his nose and sent it to his grandmother who is in his contacts and said grandma I just wanna let you know. I love you and I've been thinking about you a lot lately just a little background on how the pinky Sanchez came about.
Last night at the New Year's Eve party, Wesley drank way too much too fast and he passed out and his best friend Pinky went over there and gave him a pinky Sanchez then took Wesley cell phone and took a picture of it and then sent the selfie to his wife, which is also one of their best friends classic pinky Sanchez.
