Drop the Minky

Drop the Minky (v): to be so out of touch with one's intended audience that one drops or retcons one of the most popular plots without realizing it will have negative consequences. Shooting oneself in the foot plot-wise.

You've probably dropped the Minky if:

- You are unaware that you've dropped the Minky, and are convinced that that new plot where your heroine finds fulfillment as a stripper/nymphomaniac/farmer is completely in character and inspired to boot.
- You take to the net to sternly lecture anyone who asks you why the hell you've dropped the Minky.
- You find yourself tweeting things like "LOL trust me, it's going to be great" over and over and over, and yet no one seems to be buying it.
- You use increasingly desperate language to prop your unpopular changes, especially words like "epic" and "brilliant", until finally declaring you don't care what the audience thinks anyway, you're an ARTIST and a REBEL and neither of those have ever had it easy in the face of oppression/the man/the establishment.
- You accuse fans of interrogating your work from the wrong perspective.
- Creepy people thank you for dropping the Minky.

Example 1:

Writer A: We've got to check out the fandom before we sit down and plot the sequel to our bestselling Vampires vs Aliens novel, make sure we've got all our bases covered so we can write a satisfying and cool book.
Writer B: Yeah, we don't want to drop the Minky, that'd be so embarrassing.

Example 2:

Fan 1: Wow, did you see the new episode of Rhubarb Avengers? I can't believe they're not even going to address the fact that Vincento and the countess are long lost siblings. They just killed Vincento off and by the end of the episode everyone had moved on.
Fan 2: Yeah, they totally dropped the Minky.

drop a joe

To take a crap that is very noisy usually totally destroying the toilet bowl leaving clingers (pieces of shit that cling to the bowl, sometimes even the rim of the toilet where one would think that poo could never end up). Usually people outside of the bathroom, even in a totally different room can hear what is going on in there and make dirty faces.

"oh my God do you hear that. That is grose. He is dropping a major joe.

"He ate 4 borritos for lunch he is going to go drop a Joe some time soon. We need to leve ASAP if we don't want to get sick"

name dropping

The act of inserting the name of any obscure cultural institution into a conversation in an effort to accelerate the building of rapport with someone, or to make one's self appear to be more important. Typically considered by intelligent people to be a negative habit.

Here is an example of name dropping in context.
"I totally saw this guy I used to work with at the Bright Eyes show last tuesday!"

With the intended response being:
"woah, you listen to Bright Eyes!?"

One more example

"I was getting off the train and my Don Delillo book fell right out of my bag and onto the tracks!!!"
