Hatchy

When someone or something creates an awkward situation by saying or doing something socially unacceptable that may end all conversation, draw attention and create awkward silence. Side-effects of a hatchy situation may include nervously tugging on your collar, taking a deep sigh, or slowly shaking your head in embarrassment. When something is hatchy it is acceptable to say "hatchy" in any comical fashion. Hatch is a common alternative to hatchy and can be used in the same way.
Bob: "Bill, dont you freaking hate Mrs. Johnson, that bitch fails me on every paper!"

Bill: "That's my mom you dickhead"

Bob: (tugging on collar) "well this is hatchy..."

Hatchet Boy

Hatchet boy is an urban legend passed down from generation to generation...hatchet boy is a shadow who holds a hatchet upon his hand, the few that do see him say that he is an unknown figure. He walks about day to day in plain sight, you may even see him walking around in your town, maybe he’s even in the same room as you right now. All those who have died upon his hand have sang the song that summons him called “Hatchet Boy” which I will not write the lyrics of so you don’t summon him. Though you may try yourself to guess the song but you may never succeed.
I’m gonna see if Hatchet boy is real and try to summon him.
