GhostFire

Someone who never stops trying to ragebait and for some reason always gets banned from communicating in video games. Also really likes otters for some reason? I don't know, pretty strange character if you ask me...

"You remind me of GhostFire."

"How so?"

"Because all you do is attempt to ragebait people and get banned on Rocket League."

Ghostcard

The act of subtly revealing your professional certification, insider status, or high-level expertise in a conversation (usually online), without explicitly stating it—often through technical identifiers, insider codes, or precise knowledge that only a certified pro would know.

“Dude came into the AppleCare thread and ghostcarded with a technician ID. Everyone arguing went silent.”
“She didn’t say she was Tier 3, but that firmware rollback command? Total ghostcard.”

ghostworking

Employees pretending or faking to work just to get through the work day. Can be at home or in the office. In some cases the employee is actually working on their resume or talking to a recruiter from another business, but not for the business they are working for.

Students often try to find a ghostworking job so they can study, or write their novel. But most employers frown on it especially in jobs like security in high security areas - which may seem boring if they are doing their job well, and stopping people who may otherwise be tempted to trespass or steal, if buildings were not monitored.
