Gowinism
The act of cynically or in a manner that is unclassy describing a person, situation, or consequence of an action.
IE refering to someone by an endearing name that describes their appearance or behavior. A name for someone such as "Shrek," "Jabba the Hut," the "green mile," or "the troll farmer." Or a reference to an act like "stuck it to her" or "they took her to pound town."
In some extreme circumstances, Gowinisms can be paired with a random fit of rage such as cursing at inanimate objects or people using loud machinery. Making just statements like "you keep screwing with me I am going to go get a Flying J fuel truck and drive it right up into this #!+c4." Or "keep screwing with me and I am going to mail you something."
Gowinisms can also be less overt and involve small actions such as sticking cartoon taxi driver pictures to office equipment or moving the numbers around on a person's desk phone.
