The manila folder is a holder designed to contain documents and paperwork. It is generally formed by folding a large sheet of stiff card in half. Though traditionally beige, sometimes other colors are used to differentiate categories of files.
The manila component of the name comes from manila hemp or abaca, from which manila folders were originally made. Manila hemp is a type of fiber that comes from a relative of the banana plant. Commonly used for ropes, paper products, and coarse fabrics, manila hemp is indigenous to the Philippines and gets its name from the country's capital.

Get the manila folder mug.You are talking with fellow comrads playing some call of duty in a room perhaps and randomly a friend of yours walks in the room and you would say "Well Looky Here, Mr. Folgers" (leaving the person who walked in flabergasted) and you and your fellow comrads would laugh and welcome the new friend in the room

Get the Poker folker mug.Mostly used in Australia, this phrase means to exert one's self to the point of exhaustion. The foofer is then busted or broken (but not literally).
Its generally used as a exortation to another not to work too hard.
