Get the spiffmug. Used to point out or emphasise silence. (Well, not precisely silence, since chirping crickets make sound. But you get it.)
The idea is that you can only hear crickets when there are no other sounds, such as conversation or laughter. Often used to denote the awkward pause after a bad joke.

Get the *crickets chirp*mug. Label a pubescent girl affixes to herself in order to appear sexually trendy.
Of all non-heterosexual "orientations," bicurious has the fewest long-lasting repercussions and is therefore adopted by girls who wish to appear different or exciting to males their age.
Bicurious girls are not interested in females (if they were, they would actually call themselves lesbian or bisexual); instead, they wish to attract young men who find the prospect of potential girl-on-girl action incredibly hot.
To be fair, the term is also used by lesbian and bisexual girls who are still uncomfortable with their sexuality, or who are testing the waters before coming out to their friends or family.
