To waste time. A cute way of saying "fuck around." Combination of "circum-" meaning "around" as in "circumnavigate" and "fornicate," to fuck. Usually good for a puzzled experssion followed by a chuckle the first time someone hears it. Akin to circumflatulate, but harsher and harder to explain in polite company.

In poker, a full house or full boat made up of cards of very low rank. The low valued cards are themselves referred to as rags, but when they become part of a full boat, they suddenly become a very strong hand. A rag boat generally occurs when a player finds himself involuntarily playing a very bad hand, or chooses to play them with the knowledge that it's a very bad gamble. Therefore, a rag boat is mostly luck. A rag boat also occurs in the sense of a hand that would have been made if such a bad gamble had been taken, but wasn't.
Player 1: "If only I'd played that three-eight, I would've ended up with a full boat and won."
Player 2: "It was better to fold, you'll go broke hoping for a rag boat."
Player 2: "It was better to fold, you'll go broke hoping for a rag boat."

The interval of time immediately before a project is due, when it becomes apparent that the schedule has slipped and everyone is going to have to work like dogs to try to complete the project in time. Crunch time usually occurs during the period between the next-to-last scheduled milestone (prior to which everyone was able to delude themselves tht the schedule had NOT slipped) and the final deadline for delivery. During crunch time, workers are in crunch mode. Prevalent in the software industry, but used elsewhere as well.
"We've got three weeks left to complete six weeks worth of work. Looks like we'll be living on take-out for a while."
"I freakin' hate crunch time."
