Short

The small coffee size at Starbuck's; the only size on the menu there that makes any sense (et al Tall, Grande, Vente).
"Short" is the smallest size Starbuck's offers, but you'll only get this if you ask for it by name. If you do order a "small" the barista will likely give you a "Tall" because anyone asking for a "small" will get the "Tall", which is the smallest size for which the prices are actually on the menu. Also only their hot drinks can be served in the "Short" size. Sound confsing? Yeah, I hate Starbuck's too!

bubble burst

1) I thought my job as a lawyer was recession-proof, but when Jesus returned, sent all the sinners to hell and left everyone remaining on Earth singing Kum By Ya, that bubble burst!

2) In 2007: My house was just appraised at 130% of what I bought it for and I don't think the market can support more than that for much longer. I'm going to sell it now before the bubble bursts next year.
