garage sale 

When people sell their old/used/worthless things on their front yard at bargain-basement prices. Called such because people often clear stuff out of their garage, put it on their front yard, and decide that instead of throwing it away, they may as well sell it.

If you add a "b" between the "r" and the second "a" in garage sale, you'll see what a garage sale really is.

No more wire hangers 

What a stepmother would yell at you if she found a wire hanger in your closet after specifically telling you that wire hangers are just not acceptable. You would then be beaten about with the aforementioned wire hanger.

"You fool! I said plastic hangers! But this...This is a wire hanger! No more wire hangers!"

Bonzi 

Purple monkey who is downloaded on your computer, but as soon as you get him on your computer, you figure out he is totally useless.

Why am I saying "he"? Bonzi is an it. Bonzi isn't even a living thing! Apes are living things, but Bonzi is a simulated one. Thus, I should refer to Bonzi as "Bonzi" and nothing more.
