first dibbs

An informal term meaning first right of refusal within a given context. The right of first and exclusive access to some entity, opportunity or reward which is attainable by two or more individuals but is informally claimed or granted to one as a right - usually based on some pretext. The implication is that if the one with 'first dibbs' declines the opportunity, that subsequent individuals with second or third dibbs then inherit that right in turn.

doorwall 

A door wall is a sliding-glass door or patio door. The term is yet another example of banal Michigan vernacular, where in the residents latch on to company names, trademark names, marketing terms and product names from local companies. The terms become embedded in the local vocabulary and eventually become accepted as actual valid words and phrases. In this case the term comes from Wallside Windows in Taylor, MI (a large window manufacturer), where 'door wall' is their created word for sliding-glass door.
