The state of being extremely skinny to the point of being nearly anorexic when pregnant.
This trend became popular after startling images of Nicole Kidman and Nicole Richie surfaced, as they both looked as if they gained only the weight of their babies...
But in their desire to remain on the fashion radar, pregorexics risk their health and that of their unborn child.
It's a phenomenon that's being fuelled by the growth in designer pregnancy wear.
This "state of being" has a name that belongs to one of many buzzwords that make a serious deadly illness sound totally trendy
Milla: Did you see those pictures of angelina holding those babies?
Christina: I did! Does she EVER eat?
Milla: probably not, she has been diagnosed with pregorexia
Christina: I bet you're jealous...
A term for a politician that changes his political party after showing years of devout support for the party he/she was first elected in.
A Spectercrat usually changes parties to gain respect, popularity, notoriety, or to help be a rubber stamp for an administration that needs votes.
Origin: Named in the honor of Arlen Specter, a former republican Pennsylvania senator since 1980, who switched party affiliations in April, 2009. His record of NOT voting in line with his party earns him this honor.
Notable Spectercrats of the past:
-Strom Thurmond
-Joe Lieberman
-Jim Jeffords
-Robert Smith
-Harry Byrd Jr
Geoff: Did you hear about the senator from PA switching political parties?
Phil: No, why?
Geoff: He's a flip flop! Switching parties just to garner votes and to get policy passed that benefits his state.
Phil: As long as that Spectercrat does what is morally right, that's ok with me!
The alternative pronunciation of the big-box store Target.
Calling "Target" by the moniker "Tarjay" aims to make the shopping experience seem more upscale than it really is.
If you are always shopping at the big-box store, you may be stigmatized by your friends who shop at Whole Foods or at a mom and pop store.
To prevent this, all you need to do is make the name of the big-box store sound more sophisticated and upscale.
It adds a seemingly French sound to the name, and that sounds impressive, or even extraordinary
Ann: Did you buy that button down shirt from the local store in town?
Bruno: No, I bought it from tarjay...oh-la-la
Ann: Oh, you mean Target?
Bruno: Yeah, but calling it Tarjay sounds fancier, and conceals the fact that i am cheap.
