admin — Sun, 07 Mar 2010 08:00:00 +0000

When someone is so concerned about toilet seat germs, they cover the seat with half a roll of toilet paper, leaving it to appear like it has been mummified.

"I was going to use that stall to drop a deuce, but somebody left it looking like a toilet mummy."

When you crack your iPhone screen for some reason, but you just keep using it since it still works. It is free to get this app but if you want to get rid of it, you need to pay around $70 to get it fixed.

I tried to buy GX on the dead cat bounce but got burned.

Best-Behavior Friend

admin — Thu, 25 Feb 2010 08:00:00 +0000

Also known as 'BBF'; a friend whom you have very little in common with and you act on your best-behavior when you're with.

A best-behavior friend does not typically know the extent of your true character or transgressions because you misrepresent the truth to make yourself look good or innocent. A person with a best-behavior friendship may see the friendship as important or long-standing and so lying about situations or leaving out key facts becomes common.

After a night of dancing, Meg found herself secretly having drunk sex with her best friend's ex-boyfriend. Meg went for lunch the next day with her best-behavior friend Rachel and when Meg recounted her night to Rachel, the sexual elements were removed.

admin — Tue, 23 Feb 2010 08:00:00 +0000

A disruption of the normal thought process, normally by an external distraction. This occurs most often at times where mental focus is a necessity. Cognitus interruptus sometimes leads to procrastination, leading to further cognitus interruptus and creating a cycle. Not to be confused with coitus interruptus, which is something entirely different.

Constant cognitus interruptus in my classes kept me from passing finals.

Olympic Narcolepsy

admin — Fri, 19 Feb 2010 08:00:00 +0000

The sensation you get that you will abruptly fall asleep at any moment during the day due to trying to watch as much of the Olympics as you can the night prior, causing you to stay up way too late. A seasonal disorder, occuring in winter or summer only, and is of brief duration (around 2 weeks), and usually occurs in even numbered years. VCR, TiVO or other recording device is the only known remedy.

Jim: "Boy, look at John. He is drooling all over his spreadsheets and computer and he even had 3 cups of coffee. What do you think is wrong with him?"

Jane: "I don't know, but I think he may have Olympic Narcolepsy trying to see the Jamaican bobsled team medal. It was the last event last night."
