A friend of mine asked me the other day if I was "settin' my cap" for someone....
Setting your cap is to fall in lurve and start flirting with them so they know you're into them. :sunglass: |
As Grandpa Charlie used to say:

Caliginous [kuh-lij-uh-nuhs] - misty; dim; dark
*The long abandoned house had a caliginous aura. I first heard this word as a child in the film The Wizard of Oz when the wizard refers to the Tin Man as a "clinking, clanking, clattering collection of caliginous junk". I asked my mom what it meant and she told me to look it up (apparently she did not know either). I remember deciding that it didn't really fit in that sentence and was only put there for the alliteration. That has always bothered me. |
"Lady friend"
term used by: 1) people who are in their 80's 2) betenoire :| |
Gentleman caller

"It's time to blow this pop stand".
My mother's way of saying she is ready to leave a location. |

What in the Sam Hill?!
Sam Hill is an American English slang phrase, a euphemism or minced oath for "the devil" or "hell" personified (as in, "What in the Sam Hill is that?"). Etymologist Michael Quinion and others date the expression back to the late 1830s (Wikipedia) Criminy! |
