Lion of the Bayside

A ruler, leader, or guardian without followers, subjects, or purpose; a figure of power presiding over emptiness.

A symbol of majesty in isolation, evoking the paradox of authority where nothing exists to be ruled.

(figurative) Someone or something impressive yet ultimately unused, overlooked, or unnecessary.

Etymology: Coined phrase combining the lion, traditionally the “king of beasts,” with the bayside, symbolizing a place devoid of subjects to rule over.
After the company downsized, he sat in his executive office alone—a true Lion of the Bayside.

His talent was unmatched, but with no audience to witness it, he was a Lion of the Bayside.

A phrase meaning, among other things, "GET OUT!" It shows that one is objectively stupid in every way and has terrible ideas. Best used in context at a team meeting or group gathering, that way it shows everyone, including the "interns" how terrible a brain one has. It is commonly used in close friend groups as a way of slandering one another. It originated at Indian Hills Junior High, where a group of people did a hilarious improv skit together based around an Apple board meeting to find new ideas, where one coined the term, and the rest was history.
"Hey, what if we created a fantasy novel about girl dragons that pee rainbows?"
"That's the dumbest idea a human brain has ever even conceived. Intern, feed 'em to the lions!"

lion air

A sketchy ass airline that doesn’t train its pilots properly. Don’t fly them.
If you thought arendelle air was bad think again. At least they train their pilots properly unlike lion air. Sure arendelle flies a few older jets like IL-62s, 707s, DC-8s and DC-3s but they know how to fly the planes.

Lion

A gay man who possesses a muscular physique combined with significant body hair and a prominent, well-groomed beard. Unlike a standard "Bear," a Lion has very low body fat and high muscle definition. They are characterized by their "mane"—a thick beard that often connects to chest hair—and a commanding, regal presence.
"Did you see the guy at the squat rack? Total Lion—his arms are huge, and that beard is majestic."
