This has gotten lost in all the false meanings. A chip on his shoulder comes from the days when there was a formal declaration for a fight, punch-up etc. When a person disagreed strongly with someone over a personal belief, they would place a chip of wood on their shoulder and dare the other to knock it off. Once the other person did this signaled the beginning of the fight and thus punches were thrown. Examples of this can be seen in old British movies circa 1930-1950's.
We use this idiom to say that someone has a deeply held feeling or conviction about something (whether it annoys them or that they won't listen to any other opinion about it) and thus if you disagree then they will vehemently challenge you.
He has a real chip on his shoulder about his size, I had a chip on my shoulder about immigrants until I moved to another country.

A slang phrase, used by a woman (or a homosexual man ...) to destcribe sucking a person's testicles - gargling is the action and marbles are testicles. Also known as a blowjob, oral sex, and the list goes on.
Woman: I'd like to gargle his marbles!

When a man obviously stares at a woman’s breasts while talking to her. Happens when a person is usually wearing sunglasses, where they can stare unnoticed, then takes them off.
"You believe that frado who was talking to me? He was staring at my chest the whole time."
"Yeah, that freak forgot his sunglasses."
