Orphaned body part 

When someone shares pictures that are a close-up or cropped to only show one body part. It is commonly done with genitalia and feet, but can be done with any body part. This could be done for different reasons.

For example men may do this by sharing pics of their penises and women by sharing pics of their feet to be sexual.

People who are obese will share these pictures to focus on the one part of their body they are comfortable with or feel is the most attractive.
When someone sends a photo of an orphaned body part and nothing else you know they are hiding something.

orphaned drink 

1. (descriptive noun) A drink that is abandoned on purpose. Originates from those at parties who get a drink to fit in with the crowd but truly do not want to drink, leading to placing the drink in a convenient location where it cannot be identified with its original owner, thus giving others the impression that the original owner drank it already and is thus partying like the rest of the crowd.
2. (verb) "to orphan". The act of abandoning the drink.
1. Jash: "Dude, someone left a glass of scotch on the counter!"
Jon: "Oh that was Sandpit. If you pour him something, consider it an orphaned drink."

2. Joe: "That guy keeps getting drinks without finishing his old ones!"
Jon: "Yeah, he likes to orphan his drinks."

murderhobo 

In a tabletop game, a murderhobo is a player who murders NPCs indiscriminately. This is normally derogatory, referring to a player who totally ignores quests, dialog, backstory, trade, world building etc.

The term is most common with Dungeons and Dragons, but it can be applied to most RPGs where the player is allowed to kill most quest-giving NPCs and NPC traders. E.g. Elder Scrolls, Fallout, Divinity original sin.
