Burnt Popcorn Smell 

The bitter, acerbic, caustic, mordacious, and just plain gross aroma that lingers in the enclosed airspace surrounding a poorly abused and neglected microwave—particularly repulsive in a shared office environment. An olfactory scarring, not soon to be forgotten, which will singe into the memory of all co-workers the dangers of an unsupervised bag both to kitchen appliances and to the productivity of an otherwise fully functioning office staff.
Alisa got distracted by a phenomenally interesting cubicle conversation and neglected her microwave snack. The office quickly filled with the dreaded burnt popcorn smell and she felt really bad about it, but we all had a jolly laugh, lit some candles, and decided to love her anyway.

Brought to public attention by Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein in the book on the fall of Richard Nixon, All The President’s Men, ratfucker was Nixon’s term for a political operative who sows chaos among opponents; an agent provocateur. It is thought to have originated among campus political rivalries at USC, and seems to have some usage in the US military.
Along with Nixon’s other ratfuckers, Roger Stone caused fights at otherwise peaceful Democratic Party protests to generate a false narrative that the Democrats were violent and dangerous.
