naval lint 

The fluff or lint that you get in your belly button, Always blue in colour regardless of t-shirt/shirt colour.

There are many theories on this topic, One being that the colour of the lint is in correlation with the colour of garment you are wearing at the time. This is NOT true, if you see photographs of different coloured lint, they have been photoshopped or Paint shop pro'd (depending on which you prefer, Lesser minded people usually prefer Paint shop pro studies have been done).

Person 1) Yep it does, I photoshoped this, harhar har. . ..

Navel lint 

Navel lint is one of those things or folks that tend to exist for no particular reason and which serve no useful purpose. You'll be sitting out on the back verandah with a beer in your mitt gazing out on your domain and you'll be having a good old scratch of your belly and, in your boredom, happen to inspect your belly button, having forgotten all about it or not noticed it in quite a few years. You'll give that a bit of an explore and lo and behold...there it is...navel lint. No discernible colour or hint as to its source and it manages to take your interest for a good two or three seconds while you wonder about its origin or purpose and feel a vague sense of pleasure having freed your navel of it. It's perhaps somewhat like the pleasure that only a boy can understand from a good successful nose or scab pick.

So that's what navel lint is - someone who has much in common with a crusty old scab or a bit of nose pick. Best way to handle them is to just flick them away.
There's a piece of navel lint that pops into the forum once in a while with the express purpose of stinking the place up. Nine times out of ten I'd ignore it but this time it made some particularly obnoxious and insulting remarks...

Oh my god. I didn't notice that nasal lint until I dried my face and it became a LA oyster

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.
