throw under the bus

Physically throwing a person under a big, smelly city bus is the perfect metaphor for the act of positioning someone to be ground up under the wheels of the ever rolling omnibus of society in your stead. The bus carries people. The people's weight is what crushes the victim. This setting up of a patsy has an earlier, more agrarian beginning in "throwing him to the wolves." Someone is going down, it's not going to be you, so you select a candidate to feed into the system.

"Throw under the bus"
Every time the president gets in trouble, he'll throw another cabinet member under the bus.

C'est la guerre

Literally: "It's the war!"

This French phrase of resignation gained widespread use during World War II. It provided the universal excuse for everything that was broken, no longer functioned, was unavailable or could not be accomplished. It also explained away all unusual behavior. That it is in the language of a nation whose life and joie de vivre was being crushed by an occupational army gives it an aroused sensibility.

The phrase lingered into European reconstruction and then into modern times in all nations. It is spoken with a wry acknowledgement of its former literal meaning even though it may currently describe any other interfering force preventing accomplishment of a task, even laziness.

Jacques: "Renee gave herself to some soldiers for a bar of chocolate and a pair of silk stockings. What a slut!"
Pierre: "No, no, she's a good girl. C'est la guerre!"

Howard: "Traffic has become so tied up every day that I have to allow an additional hour to get to the city."
Jimmy: "That's life in the big city, C'est la guerre."

Cockbox

A board, usually footed by side boards, thus creating a low table, under which a man slides his naked body. Centered in the top board will be some variant of a hole through which he will insert his erect penis and his testicles. This creates a "dancefloor" for a woman who will stand on, crush and otherwise torture the exposed and vulnerable organs, often while wearing stiletto heels.

What a night! I was in the cockbox for over two hours and Mistress showed me no mercy. I can't even pee today. It was great!

bogart

Humphrey Bogart smoked all those cigarettes. He died from lung cancer. When you hang onto a joint and let it burn without sharing, you look like Bogart with his perennial smoke dangling from his lips. The term had no popularity until it became a hit song in the 1970's.

Don't Bogart That Joint
Lyrics: Lawrence Wagner
Music: Elliot Ingber

Played by Little Feat's Paul Barrere and Bill Payne with Phil & Friends. The original verson (on the soundtrack of "Easy Rider") was by Fraternity Of Man. It was subsequently covered by Little Feat.

Chorus
Don't bogart that joint my friend
Pass it over to me
Don't bogart that joint my friend
Pass it over to me

Roll another one
Just like the other one
You've been holding on to it
And I sure will like a hit

chorus

Roll another one
Just like the other one
That one's burned to the end
Come on and be a real friend

chorus

Plum Job

This goes beyond deep throat and way past your tricky dick. When the entire sword has been swallowed, one manually pulls open each cheek in order to insert the two orbs, thus orally encasing the entire baby-making mechanism. The advantage for aficionados of deep penetration is that once the globes are inside, two to three more inches of manliness can be thrust forward. Just be careful not to run out of air because disengaging takes a moment and panic could ensue.

She had all my junk in and then she grabbed my ass and took me deep. The thing about a plum job like that is, if she could have forced her tongue out, she would have been rimming me at the same time!

Disneyfied

Something of questionable moral value which has had a veneer of acceptability applied so that it no longer offends at any level, even though it's morality value has not been changed.

The big corporations turned Vegas into a family friendly playground, but even though the goombahs are gone and the shows are all Disneyfied, the town is still all about gambling, booze and hookers.

Super Mario

Any male, would be super stud who acts out his after hours life as if he were a character in a game. Get high, get drunk, get laid, get in fights, jump over it all and begin again. Tomorrow, it's back to fixing drains or whatever it is you do.

Opie: Oh shit, there goes this evening. Larry just came in.
Jimmy: No man, it's fun to watch this Super Mario go through his act. Look he's already hitting on that girl at the bar while her boyfriend is watching the Yankees.
