Bill gronos's definitions

Like cookies in a Keebler factory

1. Something extremely common, ordinary, mundane, or insipid. Mass produced.

2. Refering to people that mindlessly follow the crowd for no reason other than the need to fit in.

What you may call dressing up is probably what I call the thousand-duplets uniform: what the hoi polloi who are cranked-out en masse like cookies in a Keebler factory feel compelled to wear on such occasions to fit in.

tuanys

A greeting or exclamation used in Costa Rica with no specific definition, but means something equivalent to "ain't it great!", "life is good", "it's all good", "hakuna matata". It is synonymous with the more common expression pura vida, but is much more hip, especially when spoken by a gringo.

When a tico says "Pura vida" to you, emphatically reply "Tuanys!"

que buena estas

A Spanish expression that when spoken to a woman literally means "how good you are", but is slang for "how sexy you are". One must be careful when using it, as it could be considered rude or impolite, implying "how fuckable you are".

"Que buena estas, chica!"

Butt Set

Special test phone used by telephone repairmen. It has alligator clips on the leads so it can be quickly attached to the line connection screws on a circuit panel.

It is derived from the word "butt-in-ski" because it can be used to eavesdrop on phone calls.

For a photo, search Google Images for "butt set"

The line itself is dead. I hooked my butt set to the main panel and couldn't get a dial tone.
