Blitz

To go through a portal, usually rashly or hastily. To rush into a situation blindly. A good way to end up in the blinds.

"That new waiter blitzed through the door to the kitchen and ran straight into a cook carrying a dished of bananas flambé."

Barkle

Nonsense, or something that would be laughably passed off as such.

"Trickle-down economics is just sheer barkle, cut taxes to the rich and they just shift the extra money to off-shore bank accounts."

Apple-Chaser

Someone willing to do anything, no matter how degrading, for any amount of money; named for the "road apples" left behind by ponies in rural town streets.

That apple-chaser has been climbing into garbage bins to collect cans for recycling. He's do anything for to put jink in his coin-purse.

Addle-Cove

A rather unfriendly way to call someone an idiot.

That addle-coved barkeep threw me out of the Styx Oarsman just for lighting a torch!" Also a noun, as in "He's an addle-cove!"

Bar That

An almost-polite way to say "shut up" or "don't talk about that."

It's quick, to the point, and can be used as a warning: "Bar that, there's a cop over there!"

Born with a sneer

Overly cynical, said by many a rube about all city-slickers.

"That blood has been cynical since he was a toddler, he was born with a sneer..."

Adam

A partner-in-crime. An accomplice.

I would have got scragged by the cops, but my Adam had our getaway car running when I robbed the jewelry store, so I got away unscathed.
