bomber pilot

When a male is standing up peeing, playing bomber pilot is the fun act of rotating back and forth trying to cut a piece of toilet paper in half with the stream (of bombs).

Nearby observer: Ah ha, she's using the guilty until alternate suspect principle.

Bag it

To put a tedious or impossible hacking or repair project away for another day. The term probably comes from the idea of putting all the taken-apart pieces into a paper bag.

I've spent all day taking this apart and now I've had it; I'm just gonna bag it.
