decision lane

The vaguely-triangular strip of road separating a highway exit from the actual off-ramp. So named because drivers will use the space to stop and make decisions, merge through to the off-ramp after making split-second decisions, and/or crash into water-filled barrels or exit signs contained therein after failing to properly make a decision.

(To a passenger) Did you see that guy cut through the decision lane?
(To another driver) Nice use of the decision lane, idiot!
(Relating a story) Ted really needed to stop, so he parked in the decision lane.
(Relating directions) You can merge off the ramp that's next to the decision lane without any barrels.

décolletage ministry 

This term refers to the practice of advertising one's religiousity by wearing significant décolletage and having a cross suspended between the breasts. This is especially effective if the practitioner has either very prominent breasts or is not wearing a bra.

Jessica, who was both very religious and had been embarassed by her rather prominent breasts, made them into a spiritual asset by practicing décolletage ministry. She found it more effective than the John 3:16 signs.

A period of intense focus when creating decks for collectible card games such as Magic: The Gathering. Often stretching into the twilight hours of the night and replacing actual playing time altogether.

cupcake decision 

Similar to Cocaine Decision an irrationally optimistic impulsive decision to start a vintage or retro small business, with no idea of who will actually pay good money for the flowery-heart-craft-thing, wavy hair or indeed cupcake, that is proposed.

"It's on handmade paper with natural dyes and each one takes 2 hours of my time so I think fifteen pounds for a birthday card is fair, right?"

"I love the whole retro look and at least 2 of my friends bought some off me so everyone will..."

"Have you thought that through? sounds like a cupcake decision to me..."
