Dutch Takeover

When an employer secretly sells his/her business to a third-party without ever publicly acknowledging the fact to the employees of said business.

What happened to that old kvetcher, Max? He's looking all guilty and secretive... I mean, more than usual.

Haven't you heard? He subjected his art gallery to a Dutch takeover, now there's a guy he introduces to people as his new business "partner".

kevin takeover

Kevin is Jawn from the band Waterparks dog, and a lot of the Waterparks fanbase decided to set their profile picture to the same image and set their Display Names (DN's) to 'kevin'. This was known as the Kevin Takeover. The fans who participated in using the hashtag 'KevinNationArmy' did this so that other Kevins could see their tweets. This started off as unproblematic but the 'big parxies' decided to hate on them for it and cancel the kevins.

R.I.P kevin takeover.

big parxie: "This is really problematic. You're giving people anxiety and it's really annoying and childish."
kevin #1: "It's literally a dog."
kevin #2,3,4,5.. etc: "kevin."

or

twitter user 1: "whos kevin?"
kevin cult: "kevin"
twitter user 2: "it's Jawn's dog. people are using the profile picture and dn to have fun but the big parxies have a problem with that."

or

twitter user: "whats kevin takeover?"
a kevin trying to recruit new kevins: "we are going to try and take over stan twitter by using the hashtag '#KevinNationArmy'. Join us, we have cookies."

tap takeover

A tap takeover is when a single craft brewery gains exclusive control of a bar or restaurant's draft or draught lines. This is most often done as a promotional event but on occasion it can occur by accident. A tap takeover begins with 3 draft lines and has exceeded 25. There is currently no Guinness World Record for most beers tapped by a single brewery at an off-site location. A tap takeover ends when each keg is "kicked" or "tapped out" or "eighty-sixed" or "cashed" or "all gone". There is no telling how long a tap takeover will last but often it is too long. There is no Guinness World Record for shortest tap takeover to date.

I heard Logboat Brewing is releasing their double mocha, candied boysenberry, triple dry-hopped Quad at the Tap Takeover tonight!

takeover artist

An artist/musician/band on music streaming services played again and again and again, especially after giving any one of their tunes a thumb's up.

Don't thumb's up that Cat Stevens track on my Talking Heads station, Brittany -- Stevens is a total takeover artist like The Beatles or Michael Jackson!
