Ix-nay on the ew-nay

What a stingy/indigent person firmly says regarding da purchase of a certain item, and meaning dat he will only agree to buy a less-expensive used model instead of a pricey "fresh off da store shelf" one.
With many types of items, it is indeed often a good practice to buy them second-hand, especially costlier objects such as houses, cars, farm/industrial machinery, tools, etc. But for other items like vacuum-cleaners or other dust-collecting appliances, batteries or other chemical-based products, untreated lumber, and other objects that tend to wear/dry out or "go bad" quickly/easily, "Ix-nay on the ew-nay" may in fact NOT be such a wise mindset, in dat DAT sort af "previously enjoyed" item might not be in very good shape anymore... here, buying a new item --- and then caring for it properly --- might actually be MORE cost-effective in da long run.

Megan Ewing

Something that tends to be rude and for some reason get's an urge to become nude. Is lactose intolerant but that doesn't stop them from having dairy. Usually has an awful smell coming from them that is unbearable. On occasion's may poop their pant's in public, and should probably wear a diaper anywhere it goes. Tend's to be touchy of others, and doesn't understand personal space. Sometimes screams unexpectedly, and make disgusting noises with it's mouth. On the bright side they are fun to be around on the good days.
Uh oh! Megan Ewing pooped it's pants again. Typical.

Matthew Ewing

The Matthew Ewing Effect is when a player in the MOBA (Multiplayer Online Battle Arena) game League of Legends will pick a champion that they have seen someone else “go off” with (“Go off” meaning that another player does extremely well with in game) and then proceed to pick that champion thinking that because they have seen that someone else did great with, then they will instantly assume that playing said champion will make their knowledge and ability in the game exceed like the players they have seen play that champion. Most of the time the player will then flame the enemy team (insult and harass them) and / or blame the game that they are performing poorly.

Keep in mind that this definition is mostly targeting newer players in the game because experienced players can probably see someone do good as another champion and pick them up with some ease due to their knowledge. However, new players will do this without the knowledge of the game or champion and will most likely make themselves look like a complete idiot.
A player sees someone use Yasuo (an assassin / fighter character) and go 29/5 (kills to death) and begins to play that champion, only to wonder why they lost in a fight and blame the game or other players when they do not know how to play Yasuo. Thus you would say "Looks like they're Matthew Ewing"
