tin tax

A debate term based on famous debater Tin Puljić famously coined by other famous debaters such as Rumen Marinov and Matt Caito which essentially means that good debaters who do incredibly well in the first two rounds of a tournament end up in a room with Tin in the third round and inevitably end up losing.

"Damn, the first two rounds went so well, guess we have to pay the tin tax in R3 now/"

Tin Foil Taxi

Tin foil Taxi syndrome is the phenomenon that any player of the GTA trilogy will have experienced. From GTA III, the start of the trilogy, through Vice City and finally to San Andreas, the cars got gradually tougher, especially in San Andreas, to compensate for the comparative hugeness of the world map you were playing in, so that you could still cover a lot of ground without having to swap cars repeatedly because they kept blowing up.

In short, tin foil Taxi syndrome is the effect of moving from San Andreas to GTA III (which many players will have tried because this is the correct chronological order) and noticing the huge difference in how brittle the cars seem to be in GTA III.

WTF? I just reversed my Banshee inro a tree and now it's on fire? Oh no! Tin foil Taxi!

Toe Rag

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.

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.
