Get the tough lefty leadmug. A metaphor describing a business strategy, decision, or practice that delivers quick or impressive short-term results, but creates serious long-term problems, liabilities, or risks.
Just as using a lead pan might make food seem fine at first but slowly poisons those who eat it, “cooking with a lead pan” implies that a company or leader is pursuing results that look good now but will prove toxic over time - for the business, employees, or customers.

“Launching that product without proper testing might look good on the quarterly report, but we’re cooking with a lead pan if we ignore the long-term brand damage.”
“Cutting customer support to save costs is just cooking with a lead pan — we’ll pay for it in churn and reputation later.”

Get the Cooking with a Lead Panmug. The Westside can be tough in many cities. A guy from my past there died suddenly. I asked an old buddy what happened? He said “Jerry”was involved with some really bad people. He went on to say that he died from Westside Lead Poisoning . I asked did he live in an old house with lead paint? He replied NO, it was the Lead from the bullet in his heart !
Jerry was involved with some terrible people. He crossed them up too. It was not long after that he succumbed to Westside Lead Poisoning.

Get the Westside Lead Poisoningmug. 
This old lead sled may be fast in a drag race, but if you think you can take that winding mountain pass at any speed in it, you're crazy

Get the Lead Sledmug. Typically common with boomers and most of early gen x as most of the products they used back in the day were lead based (i.e. paint, toys, utensils) this causes an issue with attention span, how the world perceives you, and personal relationships as these people tend to have no souls. Similar to the 1000 yard stare.
this term pretty much means ur old, alone, and hate the world you live in
All though they’re known to terrorize minimum wage workers and anybody under the age of 25, these people are not in the same category as Karens. Often times these people will stare and disassociate during conversations with others & take extra time to process information.
