Wal*Mart rejects

The dregs of society.

Wal*Mart is a universally loathed chainstore, commonly described as catering to white trash and being solely responsible for the collapse of western civilization. The implication is that only the lowest of the low shop or work there; thus, Wal*Mart rejects (those who cannot get a job there or shoppers who have been banned from the premises) must truly be among the worst examples of humanity.

The phrase is used both by people who shun Wal*Mart and those who shop there, as everyone can relate to it.

Some Wal*Mart reject tried to chat me up at the club last night. Can you say gross?

No wonder we can't hire anyone! The only people who'd work for this pay are Wal*Mart rejects!

Moosii

Noun, plural. Part of the eternal quest to find an appropriate word for a number of moose: large, rocktacious creatures that have a cult following but no appropriate plural noun.

Due to the growing number of moosii references seen in the last year or two, it has been suggested by moosii enthusiasts that moosii will be the new monkey Realists note that moosii's noted lack of opposable thumb (and therefore poo-flinging) may hinder this.

Of the available possible plurals for moose, Moosii is clearly the most superior. It beats out moosen, mooses, and meese by far.

There is a herd of moosii roaming the streets of Minneapolis.

...A cult is following them.

Whatever floats your root beer

"I don't get it, but hey--whatever works for you."

Used to denote ambivalence toward another's choice of action/food/hobby/sexual partner.

See Whatever humps your camel, whatever floats your boat.

From the delicious invention of the root beer float, a scoop of ice cream placed into a frosty mug of Sprecher's best.

Two kids sit down in the cafeteria.

Ryan: Sweet! My mom packed me a peanutbutter & tunafish sandwhich for lunch!
Josh: *enjoying his pizza Lunchable* Whatever floats your root beer, dude.

my new best friend

Something awesome (especially something unexpected or surprising) that makes your life easier or in some way better; a declaration of love.

Also, part of a childhood playground threat.

Wow! I had no idea that accurately graphing parabolas could be so easy! This TI-83 is my new best friend!

Alice, I can't believe you did that! Wow! You're my new best friend!

That was SO much fun! Rock climbing is my new best friend!

You didn't pick me first for your kickball team yesterday. I hate you now. But that's okay. Sally is my NEW best friend.

rock my socks off

Verb, "to be excellent." Used to express great approval or joy.

Commonly applied to people, events, and objects, but rarely locations.

It is frequently preceded by the adverb totally, and may be used with or without the terminal preposition.

Similar to rock my face off, but with a dorkier twist.

Online usage note: phrase must be accompanied by some form of caps lock.

Megan! AWESOME! You totally rock my socks!

Caesar: Napoleon Dynamite sucked... like a leech.
Cleopatra: Are you kidding me? That movie totally rocked my SOCKS off!

Having free laundry at my dorm rocks my socks off.
However, the laundry room itself is a location; ergo, it does not rock my socks. :(

rummage

A sale of secondhand items, held in a driveway, garage, or front yard. They usually take place on Saturday mornings in summer.

From rummage sale, so called because it is a sale where you can freely "rummage" (or sort) through things in piles or boxes.

They typically include used clothes, old records, ancient appliances, Happy Meal toys, potholders, small brass deer, broken watches, coffee cups, and "crafty" Christmas decorations. Each sale is different, and finding something good is not a guarantee. (One might argue that it is actually unlikely, as you are sorting through someone else's cast-offs.)

It's main appeal is the thrill of the hunt and the chance at finding a real bargain.

You wouldn't believe the find I got at this rummage today! A nearly complete set of beat-up Beatles albums! AND a broken record player on which to play them!

Sunday afternoon

The internationally-recognised time to start any homework that has been assigned for one's weekend. This includes (but is not limited to) math problems, lines, essays, papers, presentations, studying for exams, and take-home tests.

Larger projects are usually assigned over a weekend because of the "extra time" it gives students. This is amusing because students do not utilise this extra time, instead choosing to begin work on at the very end of the weekend.

In some cases, Sunday afternoon is better stated as Sunday evening.

See also the eleventh hour.

Geez, I hate my teacher. Can you believe she assigned us a 10 page paper on Friday? She knows no one's going to start until Sunday afternoon!
