Domiho Effect 

The effect by which, like dominoes, a man dating a very good looking woman leads to more good looking women wanting to date him. From the root words domino and whore or ho’. The ho’ in this case is not referring to prostitution, but rather to a slang reference towards women that just want to have sex with someone. In this case it does not usually apply to men as men are almost all whores by that definition. Applies to men like Pete Davidson and Billy Bob Thorton dating a string of women above their expected success level. Coined by Adam Carolla on his September 9, 2021 Adam Carolla show podcast.
After Pete Davidson dated Ariana Grande, Kate Beckinsale and Cindy Crawford’s daughter were the next “Domihoes” to fall. The first leading to (knocking over) the rest happens by the Domiho Effect.

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.
