Declining to date someone because you don’t feel they’re taking COVID-19 seriously enough
If I had a nickel for every time I found myself fauci-ing someone this year, I could pay off my student loans.

(Verb)
Making a statement, while signaling that whatever that statement is, the reverse can be the actual truth. A form of gaslighting and with the known assumption that whatever is being stated, it's a given that the person likely means the opposite of what they are saying. Then later flip flopping and doing a 180 on the logic...leaving some doubt about the topic and not knowing what is up and what is down.
Tony was really FAUCI-ING when he stated that mask wearing was not needed, then a few months later states that not only is mask wearing needed, it's immensely critical that we wear multiple masks.

A toe rag was originally a foot wrapping used, since mediaeval times up until the mid-nineteenth century, to protect the foot from chafing by boots or shoes. As these were, quite literally, rags they weren’t usually washed, and so with use they became very smelly until they were thrown away. Because of the similarity in smell, toe rag also became the name applied to dried, salted cod or other things with a strong, unpleasant, fishy smell. It didn’t take that long before the name was applied to someone who was an obnoxious, unpleasant OIC.
1 “Socks! Those aren’t socks you smelly git, they’re toe rags!”
2 “What have you been cooking? Smells like toe rag!”
3 “I can smell ‘er fanny from ‘ere, proper toe rag.”
4 That Heale Malcolm is a right toe rag.

Eternity leave 

When some resigns or retires from a job, they are on "eternity leave". This can also refer to someone who has passed away, especially someone who worked somewhere for a long time, retired/resigned, then passed away later.
Oh I'm sorry, you didn't know that Kelly is on eternity leave? She resigned and moved to Hawaii!

With regrets I would like to inform you that my boss is officially on eternity leave. I will never see or hear them again. Ever.
