gold-plating

A practice in European Union, when its Member State adds new (and often more demanding) requirements to those that are expected in common legislation - mainly directives. Sometimes caused by overzealous bureaucrats, sometimes it is just their pure idiocy.

Bureaucrat 1: Recipients of this EU schemes are asked to submit invoices upon the end of the project.
Bureaucrat 2: Let's also ask them to write a 100-page long end-of-mission report, 10 testimonies of beneficiaries and copies of Annual reports 10 years back.
Bureaucrat 1: But that is gold-plating!
Bureaucrat 2: Sure, but we do not really want European money.

Yellow Plate

A derogatory term or regional slur against New Yorkers (and sometimes New Jerseyites) who have recently moved to Florida since the start of the pandemic. Yellow plates are the scourge of Florida highways, frequently speeding as traffic is significantly less prevalent in their new state. They also enjoy city driving, considering that pedestrian and bicycle traffic is all but non existant. Floridians only find relief from Yellow Plates when a hurricane hits and they flee the state. Snowbirds are considered the upper class of Yellow Plates, generally accepted by the populus as seasonal guests, rather than a permanent burden.

That damn yellow plate just cut me off!

Look at that stupid yellow plate waiting for someone to pump their gas.
