wet for Went

idiomatic expression, used mainly by true fans to express downright appreciation for an American actor called Wentworth Earl Miller III. starring in the TV show "Prison Break".

Originally coming from a hilarious blog with the same title it is now officially used around the globe, e.g. in printed publications like the German Issue of the GQ Style Guide Fall 2007.

(direct quote from the GQ Style Guide 2007)
Even in Paris a PR-woman lately confessed that she was "wet for Went".

Went to Jared

Dying. So coined because married life (which is what huge diamonds are about) and death are nearly identical.

"HE WENT TO JARED?!"
"Yeah, he stepped in front of a car... I'm really sorry."
