blockelgänger

A person who appears to be someone you know or are with, but only because some or most of their face is obscured by

their position, an object, or an environmental fixture.

Mid 19th century from German, literally ‘barred-goer’.
"I totally thought I saw Saul behind that Ming Dynasty vase, but it was just his "blockelgänger".

"Oh shit dude it's your twin! ... Wait, sorry just a blockelgänger."

"With that book in front of your face you look just like Rober Downey Jr., total blockelgänger."

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.
