Icon For Hire

An awesome band. Although they are supposedly a 'christian' band, the rockin music is anything but and many fans will tell you how they aren't. A very little known band that should be more popular.
Me: Listen to this apparently 'christian' band, Icon for Hire!

(Friend who only listens to christian music): Woah...that isn't christian music...

Me: It's awesome though right?

(Friend who only listens to christian music): Hell yeah! They rock!

Diversity hire

Have ever looked around your company and noticed how many team leaders and lower management tick diversity boxes? These people are diversity hires. All big corporations have quoters for diversity they need to meet and by hiring and promoting people who tick the right boxes the HR team can feel they are fighting for social justice
My new ream leader is a diversity hire. Totally useless but the company will cover for him as he's black and gay

personality hire

Someone underqualified for a job but hired anyway purely because they have a great personality/attitude. Personality hires are often very low performers in terms of output but are brought on because of bias / attraction / an effort to boost morale. Someone who is a personality hire is essentially the opposite of someone with impostor syndrome.

Hiraeth

The homesickness and nostalgia for the old, pre-colonised Wales; a longing to return to an identified and recognised homeland which has been lost forever. Does not refer to a homesickness for a fantasy place or a homesickness for any place outside of Wales. This misinterpretation is because many foreign languages cannot ever be fully translatable into the English language as they have links to personal and cultural connections.
"I love the world of Hogwarts so much, I feel a Hiraeth for it, I wish I could go there."
"Hogwarts isn't in Wales so that's not possible. You can use the English word homesickness, there's nothing wrong with that."
"...B-But that doesn't sound 'Exotic' enough for my aesthetic tumblr tattoo."
