A well-meant but nonetheless derogatory form of address used by a salesperson when addressing the legal department in the mistaken belief it will ward off, and not compound, the acute resentment the department has for him or her.

For example:

“Hi Legal Eagles!!
Can you turn around this tsht for me by COB?
Thx

Ghastly, isn’t it.
