My boss totally Caccioppi'd on us this morning. His coffee cup sprung a leak in it and apparently he thought it was one of us trying to "get him".

cacioppo time

A common situation occurring when plans are made between you and your friends, and you are stuck waiting on that one specific person. The person is then claimed to be using a schedule plan titled 'cacioppo time'.

i.e. If you make plans to go to the mall at 1PM, and everybody is ready to go and there's still that one person who hasn't even taken a shower due to the deliciousness of his mom's porchetta.

Cowan (calls Matt): 'Please enjoy your music while your party answers the phone' "Party rock is in the hoooooouse toniiiight. Everybody just have a good ti-"
MC: Yo
Cowan: Matt it's 1:00 where are you?
MC: Yeah I'm bout to get in the shower now and then I'll be ready in like 20 minutes.

(5 hours later)

Stru (calls Matt): 'Please enjoy your music while your party answers the phone' "Party rock is in the hoooooouse toniiiight. Everybody just have a good ti-"
MC: Yo
Stru: Matt wtf it's 6:00 where are you?
MC: Yeah I just got out the shower I gotta get dressed and then eat some stuffed shells and then I'll be at your house.

(Repeat countless amount of times until day is over)

This is a common example of Cacioppo time.

Toe Rag

A toe rag was originally a foot wrapping used, since mediaeval times up until the mid-nineteenth century, to protect the foot from chafing by boots or shoes. As these were, quite literally, rags they weren’t usually washed, and so with use they became very smelly until they were thrown away. Because of the similarity in smell, toe rag also became the name applied to dried, salted cod or other things with a strong, unpleasant, fishy smell. It didn’t take that long before the name was applied to someone who was an obnoxious, unpleasant OIC.

1 “Socks! Those aren’t socks you smelly git, they’re toe rags!”
2 “What have you been cooking? Smells like toe rag!”
3 “I can smell ‘er fanny from ‘ere, proper toe rag.”
4 That Heale Malcolm is a right toe rag.
