Lown

Alternate spelling of the word ‘loan’ Most often times to designate a loan with a very low interest rate (sub 4% APR).

Billy got an auto lown for his Toyota Tacoma at 3.5% APR at his neighborhood credit union.

Chopping Onions

Busy, or otherwise overwhelmed with work.

Originally used in Northeastern culinary institutions, made its way into corporate lingo late 2012.

John was chopping onions trying to get his management reports done and fix the broken copier.

When Sam asked John if he could do him a favor, John responded "Sorry, I can't, I'm chopping onions this morning!"
