Outjet!
u/silentxem
Outjet?
Watching "Call My Agent" on Netflix (French series), and there was a scene where a group was toasting and they all said "Outjet." It's spelled that way in the subtitles. Had never heard this before, and my google search is coming up blank.
Posted by :
Native here (Belgium/France), I have absolutely no idea what that could possibly mean. I have never heard something similar.
When we are toasting, we say "santé !", "tchin (tchin) !" or "à la vôtre !".

I came here with the same question, and I think I've figured it out. In the subtitles, the word is written in italics. Since the director's name is Gabor Rajevsky (or something) and he doesn't speak much, I'm guessing he's not French, and "outjet" is a word in his first language, which they all repeat.
We can find only one dictionary definition. Perfect match!
Outjet
owt′jet, n. that which projects from anything
—n. Outjut′ting, a projection

Non-fungible Tokens
Every asset for sale in TAR : The Fungible Collection is a non-fungible token (NFT). Though relatively new even in the realm of blockchain technology, NFTs represent a paradigm shift not only in the world of digital art, but in the world of art and media generally.
NFTs are unique digital assets with verifiable scarcity. The novelty of online scarcity cannot be overstated. For the entire history of the internet, scarcity has been impossible to determine. Content flowed freely, but it flowed too freely for anyone to confidently keep track of when artwork or written media was created, distributed, owned, shared, or purchased. NFTs are revolutionising online media, starting with artwork.

Ramshead Revisited
O'Keeffe's association with the ram's head is etched into our understanding of her — beginning with her iconic 1935 painting Ram's Head, White Hollyhock Hills. The ram's head would figure in a number of her works, but never so effectively. In 1968, photographer Arnold Newman captured O'Keeffe in front of another ram's head, reinforcing the association. In a way, they are the distillation of O'Keeffe's experience of New Mexico.
As kids, we had a pet lamb, Patrick, who soon became Patrick the head-butting ram. When he eventually died, we dropped his body into an old mine shaft out the back. Years later, I brought up his magnificent horned skull.
