Jimmy Diesel

Slang for a two-cycle diesel engine manufactured back in the day by GM Diesel (later known as Detroit Diesel, later known as MTU) -- "Jimmy" being casual slang for "GM."

These newfangled engines may be better for the environment, but them Jimmy Diesels were tough as hell.

nomo

Someone who is not a mormon (opposite of "momo").

I thought Justin was nomo, but then I saw the Book of Mormon in his car and realized he was momo.

When I go to Salt Lake City, I feel like everyone can tell I'm nomo just by looking at me.

uncomplishment

An accomplishment so small that it really isn't an accomlishment at all. Something someone brags about despite the fact that it is entirely uderwhelming.

Hey I just cleared level 5 on Angry Birds!

Congratulations on your uncomplishment.

Until the trust fund runs out

As long as I am able

I don't have Internet access of my own, but I'm gonna keep stealing wi-fi from my neighbor until the trust fund runs out.

Screamin' Jimmy

Slang for a diesel engine manufactured back in the day by GM Diesel (later known as Detroit Diesel, later known as MTU). They were "screamin'" because they were loud, and "Jimmy" being casual slang for "GM." (Also known as "Jimmy Diesels.")

My job in 'Nam was to make sure them Screamin' Jimmys kept screamin' on the patrol boat, otherwise we'd have been sitting ducks for the vietcong.

idiokey

A combination of "idiot" and "monkey" (synonym: monkiot). Refers to someone given no authority or autonomy (treated as if they are "doing a job any monkey could do"), and who therefore feels no responsibility to make good decisions or deviate in any way from what they have been told to do.

I got my boss's boss to sign my expense report, but the idiokey from finance refused to pay it until my own boss returned from vacation and signed it.
