peril of a wax staircase 

a conversation pattern in which the discourse appears to follow the laws of logic and reason, but, in fact, upon close examination of, or prolonged participation in...you get stuck like you do when you try to walk up a melting wax staircase.
often occurs when parties involved in conversation attempt to be more clever or witty than they actually are.

inspired by the melting wax staircase sequence in the "House of Wax" remake
after a 20 minute discussion about writing a play that would serve as an analogy for our current situation (in which we were unable to score some mushrooms), the metaphor was over-extended, and we found ourselves faced with the peril of a wax staircase

To be angry as hell, furious, etc. So hot under the collar that you could melt wax.

Sir Wax-a-lot 

A straight male (usually in their 20s or 30s) who waxes their eyebrows to a high and well definied arch, thus making it obvious and slightly distracting.
Kim: Hey, did you see the guy Sarah brought to the party?
Lisa: Who, you mean "Sir Wax-a-lot"??
Kim: Hahaha! I was wondering if you noticed those eyebrows too! Doesn't he know only gay men can pull that off?

Waxing a camel 

When a lady is shaving her intimate areas, She is WAXING A CAMEL. The use of the word "camel" is taken from the phrase "camel toe"
Whilst watching an AC/DC concert, my brother and i were trying to figure out what the hell the singer was on about.
We couldn't understand half of what the lyrics were. So we made up our own. "WAXING A CAMEL" is not a real lyric, but would make a good one. AC/DC MAY USE IT WITH PERMISSION IF THEY WISH.
Hello Britney, I can see your camel toe, is it waxed?, may i wax it?
I cannot come out tonight, I am waxing a camel.
Oooh, I am a bit itchy, I simply must wax my camel,
Do you like ladies with a 70's style bush, or a waxed camel?
May i wax your camel, you dirty woman?
I entered the bathroom to find my woman waxing her camel.
The two ladies were waxing each others camels.
My favourite hobby is waxing a camel.
