Mexican breakfast cereal

When there aren't any whole tortilla chips left and just a bit of salsa left in the bowl, one dumps the remaining chip fragments into the salsa bowl, stirs it up and eats the rest with a spoon.

Pass me the chips..." "There aren't many left. It looks like Mexican breakfast cereal time.

Facebook rollover

When people start making the same comment which has already been made regarding a Facebook item because they didn't bother to "View all" the item's contents and therefore negleted to see that their comment is redundant.

Tim: Why do people keep commenting that they now have that "song stuck in their head" regarding that link I posted about Vanilla Ice?

Dan: No one bothered to hit the "View all comments" link so now you're getting Facebook rollover.

Mexican gardeners

Three or more landscape technicians who ride in a company pick-up truck at or below the legal speed limit in the fast lane and or usually in the carpool lane on the freeway completely oblivious to the fact that they are holding up traffic or that the carpool lane is not even in effect during that time of day.

Hi, I'm running a little late. I'm on 80, but I'm stuck behind some Mexican gardeners, and I can't even see around their pick-up. Hell, I can't even see thru their windshield. There are three of them packed in together all wearing hats. I guess they don't know that it's not a carpool lanes at lunch. Later.

iPhone name

The name of the person asked for by everyone who calls on your new iPhone. The people calling are typically bill collectors, loan sharks, used car dealers, angry relatives or desperate tweakers who are all looking for the loser who had that number before you but couldn’t afford the data plan and all those purchases from iTunes and the App Store that really started to add up after a while.

Just a sec, I've got to take this.

Trevor? No, you've got the wrong number...
Who am I? I'm not Trevor. Who are you? I just got this phone; I don't know any Trevor!

Sorry, apparently my iPhone name is Trevor.

intersection horizon

While driving, the distance from an intersection with a light signal where you decide that regardless of what color the light is, you're not going to stop for that light.

The intersection horizon varies directly with both the speed or size of the vehicle.

Doesn't matter now. We've just passed the intersection horizon.

San Francisco St. Bernard

Homeless people who defacate on the street in the middle of the night leaving large piles which must be minded else those new Bruno Maglis or that fresh petticure won't be that new or fresh.

Newbie: I really love this new job, but walking here from the ferry, I surprised how many St. Bernards there are in the city and how few of their owners clean up after them.

Veteran: San Francisco St. Bernards? No, that's just homeless output.
