cheap heat

A pro wrestling term. A wrestler gets cheap heat when he makes a direct appeal to the crowd: name dropping local sports teams or celebrities, or simply telling the crowd how awesome they are. Heels use the same tactic; they simply make fun of the local sports team or celebrities, insult the crowd, etc.

Also known as a cheap pop.

Wrestlers are not the only public figures to make use of cheap heat; comedians, bands, and politicians do the same thing. They just get called on it a lot less.

You think John Cena's a Mariners fan or is he just wearing that jersey to catch some cheap heat in Seattle?

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.
