por/pol

Proof-Of-Reserves / Proof-Of-Liabilities

A company's proof of its cash and money on hand compared to its debt and financial liability.

Where's the por/pol for Metallicus Inc.? I thought the CEO said he invented it... so how do we know he's not misappropriating customer funds without por/pol?....

Polish Hankie

Using your hand as a handkerchief when you blow snot into it and then promptly flick it off toward the ground.

I saw this guy use his hand as a Polish Hankie when he blew snot after he sneezed.

Light Pollution

When there's so very many lights from a city that it obscures the night sky, making star~viewing almost non~existant.

Gawd, I Hate Light Pollution because it interferes so badly with my viewing of the stars & moon at night! There's so much better viewing in a small city or the countryside!

Polymath

It comes from the Greek πολυμαθής, polymathēs, "having learned much" and describes a person who has expertise in a large number of different subjects, but more importantly, they are able to draw on this knowledge to solve problems. Science fiction author Robert Heinlein believed that everyone should attempt to be a polymath and that specialisation was for insects.

Leonardo da Vinci was a polymath and maybe Urban Dictionary author Gumba Gumba is as well

fast food politics

n. The scandals, plots, intrigues, and gossip that often infuse the work environment of a fast food restaurant.

Jose: "That coworker is the fourth chick Jacob has banged in this restaurant. These people have no shame."

Joe: "This is typical fast food politics."

Jose: "Did Hunter just snitch on others and cause a nervous breakdown at this store?"

Joe: "Yeah, he stirred things up by going back and forth between people, and everyone is stewing over this fake drama. He may just want more hours by tattling and throwing others under the bus by exaggerating things. It's typical fast food politics."

Polata

A form of drinking tequila that consists of licking cinnamon off of the web between your thumb and index finger, taking a shot of tequila anejo, and chasing it with a bite of clementine, mandarin, or sweet orange.

We got so wasted last night with that tequila polata.
