1. **The Double Dipper**: This term was popularized by the American television show "Seinfeld." A "Double Dipper" is someone who dips a piece of food, such as a chip or a piece of bread, into a communal dip or sauce, takes a bite, and then dips the food again. This behavior is often seen as unsanitary because it effectively puts the eater's saliva back into the communal dip, which is then shared with others.
2. **The Close Talker**: Also from "Seinfeld," a "Close Talker" is a person who stands very close to someone while speaking to them, often encroaching on their personal space. This can make the person they're talking to feel uncomfortable. The character Jerry Seinfeld often used this term to describe such individuals.
3. **The Low Talker**: Originating from another "Seinfeld" episode, "The Low Talker" refers to a person who speaks very softly or in a low voice, making it difficult for others to hear what they're saying. This can lead to confusion or miscommunication. The concept was humorously exaggerated in the show, where the low talker's voice was barely audible, requiring Jerry to ask people to repeat themselves or to lean in very closely to hear what was being said.
These terms have become part of popular culture and are often used to humorously describe these behaviors in everyday life.
