tin tax

A debate term based on famous debater Tin Puljić famously coined by other famous debaters such as Rumen Marinov and Matt Caito which essentially means that good debaters who do incredibly well in the first two rounds of a tournament end up in a room with Tin in the third round and inevitably end up losing.

"Damn, the first two rounds went so well, guess we have to pay the tin tax in R3 now/"

Tin of Weston

A personification of that odd feeling you might get when you touch a piece of metal, and you think you need to wash your hands, but at the same time can't find an excuse to, they just smell a bit like iron now.

"Hey, Vincent, why're you heading to the bathroom stall?"
"Had to touch one of those door handles in the hallway."
"So? We disinfected them an hour ago."
"Yeah, but now I frankly feel like a Tin of Weston."
"Fine, go on then."
