peckerwad

Derogatory term for individual exhibiting seemingly inexplicable annoying behavior, esp. when same appears based in ignorance. Derived from southern U.S. Colloquialism for smegma.

A driver comments after the driver ahead of him on the freeway has hit his brakes for the third time in three minutes for no apparent reason “What the hell is that peckerwad hitting his brakes for?”

delta

Fourth letter in Greek alphabet, the word Delta means a change in quantity (more rarely quality).

Take the value for the first day of each week and subtract it from the value at the next to obtain the weekly deltas.

Rates have gone up, but I converted to fixed, so my Delta hasn't been too bad.
