A movie or television show character who is completely expendable and whose only purpose on the show is to die. The character's death is usually used to demonstrate the gravity of the situation that the main characters will shortly find themselves in. See also redshirt; the two terms are synonymous, but this term is more commonly used within the entertainment industry as an inside joke.

The Croman Trumpet finds it's roots from mutha fuckin' Andrew Croman. Instead of yelling out a swear word, keep your mouth closed and let out short bursts of air through your lips while saying the swear word. Helps muffle it out.
"OMG my wireless isn't connecting!!! WTF BBUHUBHUHUBHUHLLSHUHUHUHT."
1. A man who lives in Burlington, Vermont. He has his own live TV show where he sits in a rocking chair by a table where he takes random calls. His show uses a bad green-screen to show cows walking around in the background. Every so often a cow takes a shit.
