Mariah Tax

This is an annual 8.3% tax deducted from everyone's lifetime and given to Mariah Carey.

Every December (1/12th of the year), Mariah Carey's Christmas career, especially her single "All I Want for Christmas Is You", dominates the media and becomes inescapable. Her Christmas media permeates all corners of society and becomes impossible for people to avoid.

Emily: "Wanna go to Florida next week?"
Joseph: "Let me check to see if I have any leftover time after this year's Mariah Tax."

Wanker tax

The act of inflating the cost of something to reflect the fact that you find the client obnoxious.

It was a four grand project but I bumped it up to nine because it’s M&C Saatchi and they always pay the wanker tax.
