UnSalted Waters

A connotation of the phrase “uncharted waters” to mean exploring a body of freshwater by boat or personal watercraft. A brand established in 2017 by Jamie Burnett for those boaters and lake lovers that spend time exploring freshwater lakes.

Scott and Jamie took the family out on UnSalted Waters and anchored in a slough they discovered.

literally unusable 

A phrase used when nitpicking small problems in computer software, sarcastically portraying something that is barely noticeable as so bad that they can't even stand to use the software any more.

See that menu? They are using "they're" instead of "their." Literally unusable.

Politics as unusual 

Irrational behavior by politicians who mischaracterize their behavior as a calculated change from the politics as usual. In practice the behavior is often inconsistent or bizarre and can be seen by many rational observers as a freak show. However, there are some people who want to believe there is substance despite being illogical and the evidence to the contrary.

Bush's compassionate conservativism was a new version of "politics as unusual" as it was neither compassionate nor conservative but instead was inconsistent with the core values of compassion and conservatism.

Sarah Palin has created a cliché of "politics as unusual" with her bizarre behavior, and unusual characteristics which she tries sell as a preferred moral and ethical alternative.

Sarah's ability to explain her foreign policy credentials ("you can see Russia from Alaska...", "Russian diplomats fly over Alaska on their way to the USA...") in a way that would be impressive to the average KMART shopper.

Sarah has made parents of minor unwed mothers who are still in high school the ideal candidate for family values.

Sarah said a Governor should resign when under fire to save the government cost providing information on ethic violations to the public becomes too high.

cruel and unusual punishment 

Back in the day,when parents were allowed to spank their children as means of last resort,occasionally a mother would make a wayward child go outside and select a willowy branch which would be used to "switch" the naked legs.Having to select the instrument of your punishment was considered cruel and unusual punishment.Sometime this was pre-punishment as indicated by "And just you wait until your dad gets home".

I would alway get a Forsythia branch as the device of my cruel and unusual punishment.
