Yuppie Speedball

An unwise mix of overpriced coffee and prescription sleep aids.

Traveler 1: Why are you taking a Starbucks double espresso with you on the plane? I thought you said you were going to try and sleep off your jet lag?
Traveler 2: Oh that won't be a problem, I'll take an Ambien.
Traveler 1: Is that safe? That's like some kind of Yuppie Speedball.
Traveler 2: Like what killed Jim Belushi?
Traveler 1: No, you mean John Belushi, but yes.

Yuppie speedball

All the other definitions here are incorrect. A yuppie speedball is a coffee and a mimosa (an upper and downer, like a real speedball), often consumed at an overpriced brunch attended by yuppies.

I’ll have a grapefruit mimosa and a cup of fair trade coffee, I need the yuppie speedball today

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.
