A Omani standoff typically constitutes a standoff between a goat from Oman and a Libyan man. Over the years however it has come to describe any standoff involving man and animal.
History: circa 1800, some rogue Libyan pirates attempted to enter Oman through the Arabian Sea having circumvented the whole of Africa. Upon reaching its shores, they were met by the abundant goats that roam Oman freely. While the Omani villagers were busy tending to their crops further inland, the goats stood fiercely in the face of the pirates, and it was their determination that ultimately forced the Libyans to retreat.
Example 1:
Abudi found himself in a predicament. Having just arrived in Oman, he came across a goat. They stood facing each other refusing to give way to each other. It was a classic Omani standoff. In the end he had to yield to the goat, and find an alternate route.
Example 2:
As Harry, Ron and Hermione snuck around Hogwarts, they saw the light reflect from Filch's lamp as he walked around looking for them. So the trio entered the closest room and found themselves face to face with Fluffy, the three-headed dog. It was a Omani standoff like no other, as both sides knew the consequences of backing down.
The term 'barbiste' originated in 17th century France, in a city called Strasbourg. It was a name given to barbers who specialised in only one style of beards. This typically involved using a razor to shave the beard completely leaving only behind a curvaceous moustache. Over time, the term became associated with highly specialised employees with a narrow and limited skill-set i.e. synonym to One Trick Pony and antonym to Jack of all Trades.
Example 1:
Marie-Jeanne: What happened to your beard?
Malotru: I went to the barbiste and got this badass tache.
Marie-Jeanne: There's nothing badass about your 'tache' - you just look like any other creep with a moustache.
Example 2:
M. Gims: Did you hear about Charlotte from the Fragrance department? Apparently she got fired last week.
Brouteminou: No way! Was she the one that used to predict your baby's gender using a necklace?
M. Gims: No not her. It was the one that always matched her eyeshadow with whatever dress she was wearing. Well apparently she was just a barbiste after all - her only skill was spraying perfume in one direction.
A Hisham Moment - often abbreviated to HM - is best described as a divinely blissful feeling, achieved when a confluence of factors come together in a surprising and unintended manner to create enlightened ecstasy. Its origins date back to Hisham II, the third Ummayyad Caliph of Spain. Originally the caliph in 976, he was held hostage in 1009 and lost the throne. His Hisham Moment came when against all odds, he was reinstated as Caliph by Slavic troops of the Caliphate in 1010.
Notable examples of Hisham Moments includes fathers on the Maury Povich show when they are told You Are Not the Father following a paternity test.
Note: Hisham Moments are not to be confused with Miracles, which actually require Godly intervention
Having been with his vegan wife for 4 years, Hisham had all but given up on trying to convince her to partake in the joys of eating meat and all its derivatives. Mother Nature however had other plans for our newlyweds, and upon reaching the second trimester of her pregnancy, Kinza began to feel urges and cravings towards meat. She eventually succumbed to her desires and instructed Hisham that she wanted a burger. He chuckled, believing it to be a wind-up. So she grabbed him by the scruff of his shirt and screamed "Does it look like I'm joking?" It was then that it finally dawned on him what those words meant. Something he never dared dream of, even in his wildest imaginations. He gulped. Then gulped again. Then a smile appeared on his face, as his lips began to quiver and his eyes began to water, and he nodded. He nodded in approval like no man has ever nodded before. For he was basking in the Hisham Moment and savouring every second of it - the moment his wife finally joined him in enjoying a burger.

Jamal: Haha yea, she always gets frisky after badminton. I happened to be standing there as soon as she finished her set
Francis: Well? How was she? Surprise sex is the best sex

Francis: Ouch. Well every hole's a goal mate
