yake up

A phrase used to divert and meander away from the original talking point in a conversation for humorous/comic relief purposes. It intentionally misleads the other participant into believing you've stumbled upon a new concept when in fact, it's yake up! Yake up can be used in all kinds of conversations but it gets better with regular usage. It's fun to weave yake up into normal conversations and try and obscure it in new and exciting ways.

Person 1: "I am feeling so confused about this subject recently..."
Person 2: "I believe it could be closely related to a new burgeoning new field of study..."
Person 1: "Oh yeah? What field would that be?"
Person 2: "Yake up."
Person 1: "You got me again!"

Utility beer

Utility beer is the beer you keep around for the day-to-day moments when beer is a necessity to assist in pedestrian activities (golf, plumbing, yardwork, babysitting, staff meetings, Zoom calls). For the beer snob it is the beer you save for neighbors when they drop in at 3 p.m. on a Tuesday. It is differentiated from the actual high-end beer you save for special events, holidays, and special tastings.

Person 1: Dave, did you bring along those hazy craft IPA's so we could drink while cleaning Lyle's pool?
Person 2: Nope. I just have a bunch of utility beer that Steve dumped on me. Good enough for this. It is only 10:30 a.m.
