mood pot

A person who changes moods suddenly and unpredictably. You never know what they are thinking or how they will react. Smiling one moment, frowning the next, then scowling, and its all going on inside, because the person is not responding to any, apparent external event.

She was smiling, then she snapped at me for no apparent reason--what a mood pot.

Office Spouse

A person at the office that one shares all the trials and tribulations of the job and outside personal life with--also rumors, gossip, etc.-- on an emotional level. The first one someone runs to when something big happens in thier personal life or at the firm. An emotional relationship, but not a physical, sexual one. Relationship is confined to the workplace--if it goes beyond that, it is more than an office spouse.

It must have been something big, because after the meeting she went straight to Malcom, her office spouse.

doo-dah man

Literally, a backup singer who harmonizes with doo-dahs, doo-wops, shoop-shoops, sha-las, and the like--a minor figure, definitely not the lead singer. By extension, not the boss, kingpin or ringleader, but someone in the background, who "sings along", supports, assists, abets or worse.

The Chairman was calling the shots--everyone else was a doo-dah man.

pantsloader

An extremely poor performance when a good one is needed--can occur in any sport or area of endeavor.

(Shitting one's pants, usually figuratively, but could be literally)

He needed to put the ball on the green, but shanked it into the pond--his second pantsloader that round.

The politician seemed to present a cogent explanation, but came out with a real pantsloader when he thought the mike was off.
