Pomme de Terre

Derogatory term for a French person, playing off the fact that they are Celts, like the Irish, this is French for Potato, literally "ground apple".
Francois is such a Pomme de Terre that he would surrender during peacetime.

Terre Haute Special

A previously-wrecked car that has been repaired with panels from at least two other cars of different paint colors, thus giving the repaired car a minimum of three colors of paint on the body. While completing a low-budget repair of a car with good parts, it is understandable to not care if the donor car matches the paint of the car being repaired. If, however, you need parts from TWO different cars, you are either really hard up, or a master of ghetto economics, and your "ride of a different color" proclaims you are hood to the ground.
"Lewis fixed his car with a bunch of parts from Mike's. It drives, but it's three different colors now; Terre Haute Special."

"Dispatch, you said a *white* Buick? The tag matches, but this car is green." "Pass him and check the front." "Dispatch, this thing is black up front and white from the waist down with a yellow door." "Noted. Terre Haute Special."
