Langley Effect
The 'Langley Effect' (named after Langley BC, a frustratingly bland city/township) is the universal feeling that develops inside the mind of young adults at around ages 16-18 where the individual in question has a distinct urge to leave the town where they grew up in. Since it's inception at the start of known human history, the Langley Effect has drained many small towns of their young graduating population as they move on to cities and towns that simply aren't nearly as boring as the ones they originated from (for example, Langley BC.)
Known more colloquially as the "I've gotta get the fuck outta' this town" effect.

Ratfucker
Brought to public attention by Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein in the book on the fall of Richard Nixon, All The President’s Men, ratfucker was Nixon’s term for a political operative who sows chaos among opponents; an agent provocateur. It is thought to have originated among campus political rivalries at USC, and seems to have some usage in the US military.
Along with Nixon’s other ratfuckers, Roger Stone caused fights at otherwise peaceful Democratic Party protests to generate a false narrative that the Democrats were violent and dangerous.

That ol' gal of mine drives the 12 lane freeway during the week and a John Deere on the weekends. She likes opra and the Grand Ol' Opry. I love them countrypolitan women.
