Get the Skill mug.Cellphone.
Means teddy bear in Swedish. The word refers to a cellphone because of the way some people cuddle and cradle the device next to their faces--like a little kid with a favorite stuffed animal.
Term originated in Sweden, but is taking on a life of its own in the English-speaking world.

Get the nalle mug.Shy, gentle creatures, about which little is known. Natives of Australia, they are purported to "drop" down on the heads of unsuspecting passers-by. An unfortunate misconception, and one that has led to their poaching and near-extinction.
Possibly related to the chupacabra, an equally misunderstood creature of the southern United States.

Get the drop bears mug."You're a wuss. Learn to deal."
An elaborated version of the sentiment is found in the phrasing: "Let me get you a straw so you can SUCK IT UP."
The proffering of a straw to aid "sucking up" abilities is generally considered more comical (read: obnoxious) than simply telling a whiner to deal.
Can be used in any situation.

*a minor chainsaw incident occurs*
Bob: Um, could you call 911 for me?
Frank: Do it yourself.
Bob: ...I don't have "hands" anymore.
Frank: How about this? I'll get you a straw so you can SUCK IT UP.

Get the CCEBs mug.Often used to mean "don't have any," it literally means the opposite.
ain't was originally a contraction of "am not" or "are not," and should only be used in the first person. However, as it has still not been accepted into "proper" English like its counterparts won't and can't, few people see any problem with further "misuse" of the word.
"I ain't got no money" literally means "I am not got no money," which makes no sense at all, but is nonetheless understood to mean "I have no money."
It is an example of a double negative, where the contraction "n't" and the following "not" should cancel each other out. However, very few people realize (or care) about this, and the phrase remains in common use.

Get the ain't got no mug.Self-important or artistically-inclined person whose only conversation topics center around himself, his art, and his isolation from pop-culture and society. Extremely vocal; unable or unwilling to accept that not everything “mainstream” is bad. Typically wears Bohemian garb and listens to public radio; is unreasonably proud of his “reject” status in society. Frequently found in and around Liberal Arts colleges.
I am sick and tired of listening to Meredith talk about how no one understands her or her art. She is such a braggartist.
You know, there’s “good” eclectic, and then there’s “bad” eclectic. I’m all for soy nuts and public radio, but some of these braggartists are just crazy.
