1. in the U.S. Navy a Cadillac is a metal bucket on wheels where you put a mop in to get it wet. Hanging on top, a little over the interior, is a metal hand-operated squeegie. This combination is referred to as a "Cadillac" or sometimes a "Caddy".
2. a luxury car made in America. It's long been a status symbol for many people. Not quite as ritzy as the UK-made Rolls Royce, however.

Also the country rock band South Pacific made their own cover version. Also in 1989 there was a film by that name, and so on.

Get the Pink Cadillac mug.it's how everyone on the planet spells the word "color" except us Yanks, thanks to the spelling reforms of Noah Webster.
1. I was watching TV in my hotel room late at night in Niagara Falls, Canada. I could get American and Canadian TV signals there because I was at the border. There was an ad for Clairol with some lovely chicks showcasing their hair. Next to a lovely babe with long red hair was the logo: it said "Clairol Colour Treatment". I was watching an ad on Canadian TV.
2. At Oakes Parks in the Niagara area I was having a nice discussion with a Canuck lady. She said that I must be an American because I said "out" as opposed to "ewt". I said that yes I'm a Yank and that I spell "colour" with 5 letters, not 6.
3. Cyndi Lauper had a hit in 1986 with "True Colors". In 1998 Phil Collins released his version of it, respelling it as "True Colours" beings that he is British.
3. "Any Colour You Like" is a synthesizer-heavy instrumental by Pink Floyd.
4. The TA for one of my college classes is a Canadian. He says that American spelling for words like "catalogue" becoming "catalog" and dropping the "u" in "colour" to make "color" is a sign of laziness. Hey, it eliminates excess baggage. It's called "simplifying". That's the American way, fella!
5. Eeeeeeeeeyeww! What's your favorite color baby? ... LIVING COLOUR.

Get the colour mug.a slogan used by antiwar protestors to denounce wars fought in lands where oil is abundant and other countries have business interests at.
1. In 1991 I saw bumper stickers protesting the first Gulf war. They said "Troops out now! No blood for oil."
2. When American and foreign troops were in Somalia obstensibly on a food drive and "nation building" exercise some people protested by stickers and T-shirts also saying "No blood for oil" because the pre-anarchy Somalian port of Mogadishu was believed to be once a stopover and replenishment place for oil tankers.
3. America is at war in Iraq once again and the phrase is being used once again: NO BLOOD FOR OIL!

Get the No blood for oil mug.1. a condition where some obnoxious bozos are always throwing their weight around and belittling all those who don't agree with them. Such people think they "know it all" about everything when they really know zero because everything they say is a load of crap.
2. a similar condition where someone cusses way too much because he/she thinks it's "cool" but it really makes said person look like a stupid juvenile fool.

1. today in this age we are swamped by a lot of people who have diarrhea of the mouth.
For example, certain politicians wasted time and money holding sessions geared strictly to determine if an opposing party should be labeled as "socialist". They don't even know what socialism is, and there's too many problems that require remedial action NOW. These dunderheads got a case of petty stupidity. There's no time for it now.
2. On an ICP album and one by Limp Bizkit there are songs that actually tell you how many times they use the word "fuck". It's over 80 times each! Now that's a case of major diarrhea of the mouth.
3. Lee is watching TV and an ad for some airline is on. The host just keeps on blabbing on and on. He's offering reduced air travel rates only IF Lee schedules his flight on certain times of day, on certain days of the week, using a certain credit card, showing proof of ownership of a new Subaru car and he must've kissed Marilyn Monroe. So many conditions! Lee thinks that the ad host has diarrhea of the mouth - all he's saying is total SHIT.
4. Kid Rock should be renamed Kid Ego. He's got absolute diarrhea of the mouth.

Get the diarrhea of the mouth mug.the product that results when everything that issues from a person's mouth is a flood of wet runny shit.
I was looking in a magazine and there was an article of "things you can get for your loved ones this Christmas". There were the latest audio-books, movies, recorded speeches anthologies and then there was the recorded "works" of every Rush Limbaugh radio session to date. The writer referred to that as "verbal diarrhea". Honest!

Get the verbal diarrhea mug.a BIG fat joint (marijuana cigaret). It has nothing but grass alone or a combination of weed and tobacco together. The cover of "Catch A Fire", the first international album by reggae superstar Bob Marley has a picture of him smoking a spliff.
1. The British reggae band UB40 released a tune called "Mi Spliff" in 1985.
2. excuse me while I light my spliff (spliff)
