braux pas

The rare awkward moment between two male acquaintances or friends when the parting gesture (handshake, fist bump, or bro hug) gets fumbled. This occurs most often either when one goes in for a bro hug and the other wants to shake hands, or when one goes for the traditional handshake and the other goes for some version of the urban handshake. The awkwardness usually lingers until your next parting, at which time you both slightly overcompensate for the previous confusion by first, deciding what form your parting will take, and second, executing it with decidedly more gusto than usual.

We totally botched our handshake last time.
Tots, brah, that was as ugly a braux pas as you're gonna see.

This time, it's a handshake, OK?
Sounds good. I was feeling a little weird about it, too.

casebook stalking

Like Facebook stalking, but it's when a law professor calls up parties to a law suit years after the fact to find out more about the circumstances of a case.

Did you catch how our professor was totally casebook stalking the plaintiff? The case was over like 30 years ago. I'm amazed that she managed to actually find his contact info.

blahzzard

A snowfall that everyone thinks is going to be a full-on blizzard but ends up producing a pretty minimal amount of snow.

Yo, do you remember the nasty Blizzard of '79?
Broseph, I think you're talking about the Blahzzard of '79. It was in '78 when we had the real blizzard.

Clausemopolitan

Favorite cocktail of the Founding Fathers as they drafted the various clauses of the United States Constitution. Made with crushed elderberry and vodka. See also: The Washingtini.

"I'll drink to the new republic," said Benjamin Franklin as he slaked his thirst with a Clausemopolitan.
