Shaggy Defense

When someone is caught committing a crime (mainly one sexual in nature, but can refer to all crimes), with overwhelming evidence to prove they did it; in their defense, the culprit denies that they were the one caught doing the crime.

Derived from the Shaggy song "It Wasn't Me", which describes a man being caught having sex with another woman by his wife, and subsequently denying that it was him she actually saw.

When caught on video having sex with a 14 year old girl, R. Kelly employed the Shaggy Defense; he just denied that he was the one in the video.

Person A: Oh, man, I just killed 2 dozen people. There were over 50 witnesses. My shirt was off and everyone saw my tattoo that says "My name is Jeffrey Dahmer". What should I do?
Person B: Say it wasn't you.
Person A: Oh, the Shaggy Defence...hadn't thought of that.

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?
Person 2: Nope. I just have a bunch of utility beer that Steve dumped on me. Good enough for this. It is only 10:30 a.m.
