Since
Using the word 'since'
to link unrelated events and thus imply
causality eg 'there have been thirty earthquakes in
Peru since Bush was elected' implies the reason for the earthquakes is Bush being in power. This tactic is commonly used by broadcasters, like the BBC, to get past allegations of bias.

A phrase popularised by Australian YouTuber
frezned. To be said
ominously after saying something that has or has not happened. It has an even more powerful effect if you ask/bribe some friends/passers-by to shake their heads and
tut immediately after you have spoken.
Example:
I haven't eaten
marshmallows and
ketchup since... the incident.
No one has seen
Jennie since... the incident.
I've been wearing odd socks since... the incident.
