Scrimpathon 

(n) An extended period of self-inflicted personal austerity, usually occurring in the days and weeks prior to payday. Typically signified by a cessation of non-essential spending and/or scrounging behavior. For example, where an individual would usually drink four pints at the bar on a Friday night, during a scrimpathon they might drink less, drink something cheaper (like water) and/or lean on their friends to buy their drinks for them.

Derived from the words "scrimp" and "marathon".
Oh goodness. I only have £23 to last me until payday next week. It's going to be a proper scrimpathon!

scrimpton 

A modern sport, consisting of two or more people jumping meaninglessly and throwing themselves around on an air bed/mattress. This is perhaps better played in an enclosed area such as a tent, to prevent the competitors from falling or tumbling off the bouncy mattress.

Legend has it, that scrimpton was originally created, when two teenage boys were having a fight in a tent. When one boy fell onto the air-filled mattress, he allegedly had an epiphany. He thought, "Why do we insist on fighting each other, when we could put our differences aside and have a tremendous time jumping and falling onto this surprisingly hilarious airbed?". He aired this realisation to his friend, who instantly agreed and they proceeded to tell a few immediate friends of their discovery. Since this day, scrimpton has never looked back, and has now become a worldwide phenomenon.
"Hey Brian, you fancy a quick round of scrimpton?"

-"No thanks Horace mate, it's a bit too rough for me"

-"Fine Horace, you win. Scrimpton it is."

Utility beer 

Utility beer is the beer you keep around for the day-to-day moments when beer is a necessity to assist in pedestrian activities (golf, plumbing, yardwork, babysitting, staff meetings, Zoom calls). For the beer snob it is the beer you save for neighbors when they drop in at 3 p.m. on a Tuesday. It is differentiated from the actual high-end beer you save for special events, holidays, and special tastings.
Person 1: Dave, did you bring along those hazy craft IPA's so we could drink while cleaning Lyle's pool?
