Avant Tard
It's for all those times when the art snobbery of a piece reaches such high levels that the feeble attempts made at being "exotic" or "ground breaking" just lands the artist squarely in the realm of retardation.

Post Avantgarde Jazzcore
A fake genre of music used as a retort to people who claim to listen to a bunch of made up genres of music in order to seem interesting.
Rumor has it, only one band ever existed. They played only one show to an empty room, recorded and mixed the show into a live album, produced one copy, and then never spoke or saw each other again. The album was recorded through an old walkman, and can only be played through player piano scrolls.

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?
Person 2: Nope. I just have a bunch of utility beer that Steve dumped on me. Good enough for this. It is only 10:30 a.m.
