From the Burbs 

When someone went to a school with a ethnic make-up of 99% white Christians. “Build the wall” and “Heil Hitler” are common chants heard within their updated facilities that hold privledged suburban teens. They are usually named things such as “Macchiato” and “Kale”. Some kids try to be thugs and vape juuls, even though they’d shit their pants in fear if they tried going to an inner-city school. Since these kids don’t know oppression, some label themselves as pansexual non-binaries and they pretend to act ghetto. Others harass the single gay teacher because they have nothing else better to do.

from the 'burbs

In basketball, a shot from outside the three-point line.

This is the proper way to describe a shot from a distance, as "from downtown" isn't. "Downtown", in this context, is right under the basket.
"Pass to Bryant...he shoots...FROM THE 'BURBS!"

Hate Sink 

A person you hate intensely not because they deserve such hatred but because they serve as a focus for your general hatred. A healthy way to dispense with excess animosity.
Jake's not really that big an asshole. He just serves as my hate sink.

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.

Eternity leave 

When some resigns or retires from a job, they are on "eternity leave". This can also refer to someone who has passed away, especially someone who worked somewhere for a long time, retired/resigned, then passed away later.
Oh I'm sorry, you didn't know that Kelly is on eternity leave? She resigned and moved to Hawaii!

With regrets I would like to inform you that my boss is officially on eternity leave. I will never see or hear them again. Ever.
