leap frog 

An analogy for taking turns, used to explain to my useless japanese contractor how efficiently conduct instrument loop testing.
Have three crews in the field calling back to one crew in the control room. Crew #1 - Shooting a loop. Crew #2 - Simultaneously shooting another loop. Crew #3 - Setting up for the next loop. When crew #1 or crew #2 are finished, they can setup for the next loop, by which time crew #3 is ready to shoot theirs. Did you ever play leap frog at school? Have you ever watched team pursuit at a velodrome? Have you seen how the three instrument air compressors communicate amongst themselves so at to decide which is lead, which is lag and which is standby? Same concept applies.

chicks with dicks

"Bugger!" he whined, throwing the book down in disgust amongst his pile of dog-eared and semen-encrusted 'Chicks with Dicks' magazines. "I wish George and Tony were here now."

surreptitiously 

To do something, usually forbidden, in a sly, sneaky manner.
They were thankful for the sunglasses. It enabled them to surreptitiously cast their joint gaze over Damina's ravishing body.

double tap 

Two bullet shots to the head in close succesion and close proximity made by an experienced marksman.
Just then, two shots rang out. Palmer slumped to the ground, having taken a double tap to the back of the head from 2nd Lt Pino Martello's sidearm; apouncy little Beretta 22.

The Wiggles

Four homosexual cretins whose names are generally forgotten by humans over two foot three inches.
In an instant, Palmer's life flashed before his eyes. Regrets, he'd had a few. But then again, too few to mention. His first regret was that in a hypomanic state preparing his assault team for combat, he had forgotten to put on his black combat boots. Instead, he was lying on the ground, dieing in his ‘The Wiggles’ socks. Secondly, he had never shared his seed with the one love of his life, Nagem.
