It's called the "loose the five lowest and hope for the best but you actually draw two 2's and two 4's because fuck you" hand
Annoying. It's just full house bait, but whatever pair you choose to discard, you better believe you'll get the third card for it on your next draw.

Would be great if that happened to me
You want the third card for the pair you just discarded? I'll trade my luck for yours if you want it!
Yeah, full house from two pairs is a bait. I only go for them when I happen to draw a three of a kind (or when my deck is already skewed towards it), since finding a random pair is much more consistent.
Not full house, not a straight.
"I do not appreciate"
No, don’t touch me there, this is my no no pair

Sounds like you need the Skipping Straught Joker and the one that let's you make straights with 4 cards instead of 5.
I call this one "I wish negative playing cards were a thing". Though with mods, they are, I think.
Check out Dungeons and Degenerate Gamblers! It's a blackjack Roguelike, and has all kinds of crazy cards, including negatives
That reminds me, I really got to check out the mods.
Not odd
Pair-stairs evens only. Too bad that isn't a real hand in anything. Though "stairs" or "ladders" or (boring) "sequences of pairs" are valid in some climbing games including the commercial version, Tichu.
Man, a tichu mod of balatro would be wild!
I always call it four pair.
Skip straight: Also called alternate straight, Dutch straight, skipper, or kangaroo straight, Cards are in consecutive order, skipping every second rank (example 3-5-7-9-J).

Oh, except you only have 4...
