I have used chooch, tone attorney/blues lawyer, cock socket, marone. Not sure how much is PRF in origin, but I use em.

I missed the filthiest joke somehow. Is it accessible anywhere?

Is that the one with the welding hood?

Some of it is from Live From the Barrage, which I guess is adjacent.

I've used "blues lawyer" to describe those who purchase expensive Gibsons, but was unaware that it originated here.

"Blues lawyer" might have been floating elsewhere, but "tone attorney" originated here when posters were making fun of PRS aficionados (sadly, the original thread was not saved in the archives).

I use both pretty regularly, along with the British Crown variant "Mojo Barrister."

If I have to refer to the covering on an amp, I would literally need to pause and think before just blurting out "TORLEX"

Also, +1 with "borken", but I do try and use that only for stuff that's better off borken than unborken.

This on has definitely slipped into my everyday vocabulary.

Even at work in our office Team chat I’ve replied “that’s a band I’d go see” to a quirky phrase or comment. To many a raised eyebrow emoji.

I’ve also caught myself using “pillowy” and “snapping” to describe things… which I definitely shouldn’t do.
