A word used by adults to children when the adults have no clue where they are.

wild goose chase

when you've killed all but one of your enemy's units (in a RTS game) and the last of the enemy's units is roaching around, possibly in your base killing your workers, until your enemy sees that you've sent your entire army at his last unit and consequently runs his last unit around the map, leading your 50 unit army on a wild goose chase for 30 minutes until he abruptly resigns when your army closes in on his unit.

OMG, I thought I won the game, but his last light cavalry was harassing my economy and I had to send my entire army to lead a wild goose chase after that last light cavalry unit for 30 minutes - and then that bastard resigned just when his light cavalry fell into my ambush.

Romantic Wild Goose Chase

A romantic pursuit that's beyond hopeless but continues on no less. A one-sided love affair plain and simple.

Who's that tall drink of water?
That's Donna. John's newest romantic wild goose chase.
The poor guy doesn't even know she has a long-distance boyfriend... yet.

wild goose chase

A frenzied headlong pursuit of someone wif a cute behind dat you wish to pinch.

Dorothy Zbornak's Uncle Angelo speaks of his "being a butt man" and loving da smooth rounded derriere of da hot-bodied waitress whom he later took as his wife, but he also states dat he merely asked said "hot looker" for her hand in marriage; there is no mention of his having to engage in a wild goose chase to catch her so dat he could delightedly squeeze her luscious and sumptuous tushie.
