Hover-grating 

A careless method of grating cheese by holding the block of cheese and grater high above the food, causing it to disperse everywhere but the intended dish.

Characterised by fragments of grated cheese found everywhere around the kitchen afterwards - often accompanied by a larger, dry block of remnant cheese left out for many days after said cheese-grating incident.

Particularly common in Rootes P 2nd kitchen, and generally anywhere inhabited by a German-Italian partnership.
Dude 1: "Awww wtf Jasper, there's cheese everywhere on the table again!"
Jasper: "Sorry dude, Francesco and I made pesto pasta last night and we were hover-grating the cheese over it."
Dude 1: "Aw not again dammit."
Pit: "In Luxembourg..."

Hover-grating is the only way to truly enjoy a German-Italian dish.

Giratina 

Otherwise known as the Renegade Pokemon, he is pretty much the most BA dragon you'll ever find. He can switch from the six-legged Altered Forme (when he's walking around on Earth) to the Origin Forme (when he's in his domain, the Reverse World) which looks more like a snake with an epic golden crest on his head than a dragon.

He uses this sweet move called Shadow Force where he disappears for one turn in which you can't attack him AT ALL, and then he comes out of the shadows and strikes you in the next turn. It's epic if you're the owner of the Giratina utilizing this move, but pretty dang annoying if you're on the receiving end. Especially when he uses it over and over again.

Also, it's near impossible to create a gijinka (humanized) version of Giratina that isn't somewhat sexy.

murderhobo 

In a tabletop game, a murderhobo is a player who murders NPCs indiscriminately. This is normally derogatory, referring to a player who totally ignores quests, dialog, backstory, trade, world building etc.

The term is most common with Dungeons and Dragons, but it can be applied to most RPGs where the player is allowed to kill most quest-giving NPCs and NPC traders. E.g. Elder Scrolls, Fallout, Divinity original sin.
