Merle Haggard

That knot is a Merle Haggard, it will never come loose.
Merle Haggard by Patrick Roughen October 10, 2007

mad haggard

1) Whenever things get rough beyond all reasonable standards. An expression of an inability to make any headway against the fundamental ridiculousness of a shitty situation.

Pioneered by Adam and Josiah about halfway through a confusing trip in Eugene, OR, it quickly became a useful, though somewhat overused, descriptor for a lot the crap that life throws at you. It also evolved into a universal adjective to directly describe people and things as well as situations. Sometimes shortened to MH.

2) Can be used as a reply to a complaint. In this form it is descriptive, but takes on the additional sense of empathizing with the speaker, while also tacitly admitting that there isn't anything that can be done about the hopelessly fucked up situ.

A: "My shoes are untied, my headphones are all tangled, I can't find my shit, my nose is running and I don't know which way is up. I feel like a bag lady."
J: "Mad haggard, yo!"

"Damn, Roland is really pissing me off with all the bullshit he's making us do. Mad haggard--i'mma quit soon."

"George Bush is mad haggard."

J: "This sucks."
A: "MH."

Haggard Garage

A youtube channel that panders to children who cannot afford to properly modify a vehicle. They are the epitome of ricers, and they have this idea that if they call themselves ricers ironically that they have defused their detractors (the I <3 Haters argument). Their feature vehicle is a pitiful Miata that begs for sweet release from life. Haggard Garage is the physical embodiment of everything that is wrong with young car "enthusiasts" today.
Adult - Why is that Miata making that god awful sound?
Child #1 - Because Haggard Garage they do it for fun.
Child #2 - Because racecar lol XXDDDD Haggard Garage that's why.
Child #3 - I live in Connecticut and want to go to the Haggard Garage meet, but f*ck I'm 11 and don't have a car.

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.
