Art block 

A Code Red for artists when they meet the wall and all motivation to draw suddenly disappear in the Bermuda Triangle. Simply when artistic libido is missing. Common causes are either a burnout from being too active with the pen, or a lack of inspiration/ideas on what to sketch. Either way, it is an artists downfall which can be permanent or temporary. Forcing oneself to draw during an art block will always work against its purpose, and has the same outcome as when a propane tank is thrown on a fire.

Utility beer 

Utility beer is the beer you keep around for the day-to-day moments when beer is a necessity to assist in pedestrian activities (golf, plumbing, yardwork, babysitting, staff meetings, Zoom calls). For the beer snob it is the beer you save for neighbors when they drop in at 3 p.m. on a Tuesday. It is differentiated from the actual high-end beer you save for special events, holidays, and special tastings.
Person 1: Dave, did you bring along those hazy craft IPA's so we could drink while cleaning Lyle's pool?
