A concept derived from software development teams or other teams that have split workloads. It entails a person that does little to no work, but always boasts about "we" and "us" doing work towards the goals the company sets. Often referred to as a free-loader, but more specified towards this use-case of a team-member that acts like they do work but doesn't.
Anne: Did you see how Oliver talked like he didn't have just 2 hours of work last week?
Brian: Yeah, he uses that colleague's we a lot when talking to the boss, so nobody notices him slacking off.

Get the Coletrain mug.An individual, often a Western university student, who expresses sympathies towards communist ideologies, regimes, and leaders, and dismisses the atrocities they committed under such dictatorships. This term connotes an endorsement of violent revolutionary tactics, totalitarian governance, social oppression, and censorship, including its policies associated with historical communist countries. It also implies a tendency to deflect responsibility for these beliefs onto external political regimes when challenged and by becoming hostile, delusional, and aggressive.
This new student is one of those college commie types who defended these regimes and atrocities by blaming the people and not the leaders.

Bitter drinks reflect on how difficult a person can be when engaging in a conversation. Adding Also the lack of brain freeze in drinks if it isnt as strong it just means your meeting a less enthusiastic person to deal with and the conversation is probably going to be less of a fun experience.

There was a party however ...something feels like it isn't memorable. Sure some of the drinks where fine beggars cant be choosers. Though if this happens every year....making things predictable and everything feels like there isnt a change. My lack of sensory feedback makes me feel like Im socializing with folks who are a collective drought.
