Martyr Complex

When someone is asked to do something on behalf of a friend, and they agree, but then act like they've made huge sacrifices and should be repaid 100 times more.

Craig: Hey Mike, since you're going to the store anyway, can you pick me up on the way? I need some groceries too.

Mike: Sure.

(2 weeks later)

Mike: Hey Craig, you owe me at least 5 dollars in gas money for taking you to the store, I'm sick of you asking for rides all the time.

Craig: What are you talking about? I've only asked you twice, plus I bought you a six pack at the store both times, helped you move last week, and set you up on two dates last month! You've got such a martyr complex.

Toe Rag

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.
