mutually assured destruction

A situation in which two states have enough weapons (typically nuclear) to ensure that should one launch an attack the other would be able to respond in a strong enough way to destroy the attacker. Both would be destroyed.

This situation is supposed to prevent either side from launching such an attack.

The Cold War between the USA and the USSR in the 20th Century is an example of such a situation.

With our stockpiles of nukes we have mutually assured destruction in the case of a launch.

Bag head

1) Term for a drug user. Possibly originating from the manner in which solvent addicts imbibe glue; they put the substance into a bag then repeatedly breath in and out with the bag over their mouth.

2) Its modern use is more likely to refer to a smack (heroin) addict and is usually a term of abuse.

1) That bag head was in my shop buying glue again today.

2) Some dirty bag heads left needles on the school playing field.

mash

To apply violence to another person in an attempt to reduce them to the consistency of whipped potato (See also Mashed potato.)

The song "Mash up Tony Blair" is used today in much the same way as the chant "Maggie, Maggie, Maggie. Out! Out! Out!" was used in the 1980s, although is not so popular.
