Ways out 

Use this phrase after saying something insulting, outrageous or provocative to indicate "I'm just joking," or "I don't really mean what I just said." Should be accompanied by a dismissive hand flop.
"Oh my god, there's a giant spider on your head! Ways out."

"Did you steal those pants from someone who weighs twenty pounds less than you? Ways out."

NOTE: I bag groceries in south Denver, and over the past few years I've used this "giant spider" example with dozens and dozens of customers to find out if they know what "Ways out!" means. Those who recognize the phrase are all people who (like me) graduated from a Denver area *public* high school roughly between 1975 and 1985. An outlier was a sophomore from Lincoln HS who had learned the phrase from her father -- who graduated with the Lincoln class of 1979!

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.

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.
