fat guy strategy 

The term for the strategy of waiting until the foodservice employee puts the first portion of meat on your sandwich/burrito/whatever to ask for double meat. That way, the size of the first portion isn't compromised by the knowledge that a second portion is coming, and sets a precedent portion size for the second portion, avoiding any size discrepancy between first and second portions. Particularly effective at Chipotle.
Employee - "What kind of meat, sir?"
Fat Guy - "Chicken, my man."
E - *Scoop*
E - "Any vegetables?"
FG - "Actually, can I get double chicken?"
E - "Godfuckingdammit okay."
FG - "Fat Guy Strategy wins again."

cheese strategy 

noun. Gaming. A strategy that seeks to provide means for overcoming a challenge (e.g. a boss fight) not by engaging with the challenge itself but rather by bypassing it altogether. It is oftentimes exploitative of a game's mechanics, taking advantage of oversights in game balance made by the developers to easily deal with an obstacle.

Cheese strategies trivialize challenging content, by either speeding the process up immensely to eliminate the challenge or by making it nigh impossible to fail (e.g. through creating means to infinitely heal oneself). One could distinguish between "fast cheese" and "slow cheese".

Not to be confused with glitch exploits. Cheese strategies always work within the bounds of the game.
A: Hey, I just can't beat this boss, this one move just kills me every time.
B: Oh yeah, I struggled with him too. But there's this cheese strategy using this set of armor and a combination of potions that makes you pretty much invincible so I managed to get past him.

Texas is categorized as a swing state in presidential elections, but has voted for Republicans more times than for Democrats in recent history. As such, as demographics change political alignments, some Democrats believe that Texas will vote blue, or Democratic, due to their Hispanic and African American voters, who often align themselves with the Democratic Party's liberal wing.

Blexas has been cited as possible in the upcoming decades, but only if Democrats continue to win the Hispanic vote in bigger margins.
Democrat 1: What is your prediction for the 2024 presidential election?
Democrat 2: Well uh, Blexas!
Democrat 1: You've been saying that since 2008 though.

Brought to public attention by Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein in the book on the fall of Richard Nixon, All The President’s Men, ratfucker was Nixon’s term for a political operative who sows chaos among opponents; an agent provocateur. It is thought to have originated among campus political rivalries at USC, and seems to have some usage in the US military.
Along with Nixon’s other ratfuckers, Roger Stone caused fights at otherwise peaceful Democratic Party protests to generate a false narrative that the Democrats were violent and dangerous.
