Dan Weyandt's definitions
1. Nickname for a sailor trained to operate a Navy nuclear power plant. Navy nuclear power has zero tolerance for error, so nucs train day-in and day-out, and are constantly monitored. Hence, being a nuc is very arudous and stressful. Add this to the bureaucracy and politicization of nuclear power, and a nuc's life is a living hell.

Get the nucmug. 1. n. Vile, evil ruler of China from the end of WWII to the early 1970's. Killed millions of his own people with forced collectivization of agriculture, the "Great Leap Forward," and most of all with the power-restoration maneuver resulting from the famine created by Great Leap Forward known as the "Cultural Revolution." Faclitated a transfer of power to a group of even more evil people called the Gang of Four that included his wife. The tyrant can be considered on equal footing with the next definition.
2. n. The excrement of Microtus pennsylvanicus. You guessed it, its "mousie dung."

Get the mao zedongmug. n. In Baltimoron, this refers to the "official" beer of Baltimore, National Bohemian Beer. For a time, National's head Jerry Hoffberger also owned the Baltimore Orioles. Natty Boh was served at Memorial Stadium starting in the late 1960's. Alas, Natty Boh is no longer brewed in Baltimore. It is now brewed by the Miller Brewing Company in North Carolina.
The company's mascot, the one-eyed, handlebar-mustachioed Mr. Boh, has been a recognizable icon since the 1950s. Although the mascot itself was retired in the early 1960's, it is still a highly popular image, especially in Baltimore, where it is considered an unofficial city mascot. A Mr. Boh neon sign currently sits atop the former site of the National Brewery building in the Brewer's Hill neighborhood of Baltimore. The former brewery is now known as Natty Boh Towers and is rented out as apartments and offices. Mr. Boh still appears on all cans, bottles, and packaging.

Get the bengalsmug. v. A metaphor for a person or a group of people believing their own lies and propaganda. The effects of doing this can be comical, e.g., Baghdad Bob, but this is usually the harbinger of the demise of the practitioner(s).
When Mikhail Gorbachev instituted Perestroika and Glasnost, it was obvious that the leadership of the Soviet Union was having a big session of "drink your own bathwater," assuming that Communism was actually about helping workers. Glasnost exposed the average Russian to the lies they had been told, particularly about how awful their standard-of-living was as compared to the West. Subsequently, Gorbachev and the Soviet Union lasted only six years.

Get the drink your own bathwatermug. n. Dialect and accent used in Baltimore, especially in the Dundalk area, characterized by a nazalised "oh" vowel ("hoem" and "phoen" for "home" and "phone"), dropped consonants ("bawlamer" or "bawlmer" for "Baltimore"), and catch-phrases like "doen'cha knoe, hon."
n. A person who speaks using the dialect, and behaves in a characteristic manner, such as rabid fandom of the Baltimore Orioles, walking down the middle of the street when there is a perfectly good and clear sidewalk, eating bushels of whole soft-shelled crabs doused with Old Bay seasoning, etc.

Listen to the song "Crabs For Christmas" for a definitive rendering of Baltimoron.
Get out of the middle of the street, you Baltimoron!

Get the Baltimoronmug. n. Derogatory nick-name for the Maryland State Correctional System Work Release Program, also known as the Baltimore Ravens. The name can also be in reference to the puerile, quick-tempered, and monumentally mean-and-nasty fans of the above. Ratbirds fans don't really like the Ravens; they just hate the rest of the NFL, and are nototious bandwagon fans.
That Ratbird fan just stole my little girl's terrible towel and wiped his butt with it! And to think they accuse Stillers fans of being rude. Ratbirds fans are a real piece-of-work!
