Military Brat

Dependent who grows up in military housing or area with parents or parent that learns the meaning of military life. Most learn that mom likes to watch T.V and eat junk food whilst dad goes on deployment forever. Both parents likes to cheat and pay little attention to the children. The dependent grows up usually with little or no respect for much in life while they run around the housing area at wee hours of the morning doing clandestine shit with other military brats dodging Shore Patrol/Military Police/Local Security.

I grew up as a military brat, look at me I turned out fine. Lets go shoot some pigeons and cats.

Hate Sink

A person you hate intensely not because they deserve such hatred but because they serve as a focus for your general hatred. A healthy way to dispense with excess animosity.

Jake's not really that big an asshole. He just serves as my hate sink.

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.
