telephone ear, telephone elbow, & telephone hand

After a long time on a regular house phone (not a cell phone), the ears, elbows, & hands get so tired from holding the phone they get sore.

That 5~hour phone call sure gave me telephone ear, telephone elbow, & telephone hand making them so very sore.

pink telephone

Used to describe female masturbation and orgasm as used in the phrase, "I dialed 'O' on the pink telephone."

I was so horny last night that I fired up my vibrator and dialed "O" on the pink telephone.

Neon Telephone

When a famous musician writes a song for your band, but it's a terrible song — a la Prince's "Neon Telephone" for the Three O'Clock.

"I thought we'd be famous, but we got a Neon Telephone."

telephone tag

When two people end up having a conversation via voice mail, because neither persons are near the phone when it rings. This can be both fun and frustrating at the same time.

voice mail 1: "pick up the bloody phone! I need to talk to you."

voice mail 2: "About what?"

voice mail 3: "a bunch of us are going out friday night. Wanna come?"

voice mail 4: "Out where? I need specifics. I'm geting tired of playing telephone tag"

This can continue on for a while, and potentially fill up ones voice mail memory.

telephone marriage

Usually, ship's crew members, ofiicers or ratings might be at sea working on various ships something like 80% of their time, sometimes even one year or more at a time, continuously. In case they are married they often call their wife from different ports of call or from the ship herself via satellite telephone, thus having actually a "telephone marriage" instead of a normal marriage.

Ben: You know, Mark calls his wife so often!
Steve: Yeah, I know, he has a "telephone marriage"
