Greensburg

A place where people have no lives. Everyone, even if they are to travel out of Greensburg, only talk about everyone else, because they have no life. A place full of liars and ostentatious tan girls with big butts. They choose to live in a fantasy high-school world for the rest of their life. Mothers are usually in everyone's business and like to drown little children with their lack of know-how and poor vocabulary. Most people in Greensburg are destined to live and die there. Too bad, so sad.
Guy: Hey, whats up where are you from?

Guy: Ew. Nevermind. Get away from me gross girl.

greenskins

Orcs and Goblins, and related creatures (including Space Orks, Gretchin, Hobgoblins, etc.). It's apparently exclusive to the Games Workshop range of games.

If Orcs really existed, this term would probably be considered racist (especially since some Orcs, the Black Orcs, do not have green skins in Warhammer).
The fortress was besieged by a ravening horde of Greenskins.

Greenspan put

(FINANCE) the widely-held belief by most traders or speculators that Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan (s.1987 to 2006) would use monetary policy to ensure that asset prices would not fall below a certain level.

A "put" here refers to the put option, a financial derivative that allows the owner the guaranteed right to sell a fixed amount of the underlying asset for a fixed strike price. A person who has a put for the assets she owns therefore is immune from the risk of those assets falling below a particular floor.

In the case of the Greenspan put, it was widely observed that Greenspan intervened in order to protect gains in asset values; this tended to guarantee that purchases of financial assets during Greenspan's tenure were very unlikely to be mistakes. This, of course, created conditions of moral hazard in the asset markets. particularly in financial stocks and in housing prices.
The outcome of that (October 1994) rate cut turned out to be far worse, as the committee's actions came to be viewed as the Greenspan Put, meaning speculators could take enormous amounts of risk trusting that Greenspan would do anything to stop the market from a serious decline.

Alan Greenspam

The former head of the Federal Anti-junk-e-mail Administration. We all sorely miss him.
Ever since the ultra-capable Alan Greenspam retired, everyone's e-mail inboxes have been flooded with unheard-of levels of junk mail, despite massive blocking and repeated spam-filter upgrades.
