big tech

Refers to large technology companies that have significant impact and even control over elements of our daily lives. Facebook, Google, Apple, Amazon and Microsoft. Also Youtube(owned by Google) Netflix, Whatsapp (owned by Facebook), PayPal, Twitter, Spotify and Tencent. Big tech is watching you and selling your data to advertisers. They control what you see and hear online and can sensor anything they don't agree with. They filter search engine results to cater to their agendas and ideals. They want you sign up to their monthly subscriptions and use their payment services. They want you to have a digital ID (ID2020) so they can track your every move, medical history and social credit score (Black Mirror - Nose Dive) etc. The only way to escape big tech is to go off-grid.

Person 1: Big Tech will take over the world.
Person 2: It already has.

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.
