back burner

1) Custom of placing pots not requiring immediate attention toward the rear of the stove 2) A condition of low priority or temporary deferment 3) Where one resides when they are hearing bs in hopes of maintaining the status quo of a "relationship" that serves to keep the fires lit for the IO part of the equation

It's so sad how Sal doesn't realize shes placed on the back burner. Hal has no intention of making her his one and only.

Back Burner

While having sex, flip the girl over, defecate on her back, and give her an Indian rug burn for good measure.

Sally wouldn't stop talking last night, so I gave her a back burner.
