Turned Carny

American 1980s slang for a person that has joined MI6.

Based off of a combination of the American slang word "carny," meaning someone who works for the carnival, and also "The Circus," for the British Secret Service agency MI6.
The former American CIA operative said, "Hey, I heard you turned Carny on us."

"Nope," The Equalizer replied in his English accent, "I just retired."

Carnevarian

A person who eats meat and animal proteins as their primary source of nutrients, though they may enjoy plant matter at times. Carnivarians are the anti-nazivegan, and do not tolerate others telling them what they can and cannot eat.
Veggie Velma: "How can you eat meat? Don't you know it came from a poor little cow that was helplessly slaughtered? You should be a Nazivegan like me, and save the world by being pushy."

Meaty Mark: "Just slap that cow between two pieces of bread, and call me a happy carnevarian. I'll eat how I choose to eat, and you can eat how you choose."
