Man Up

1. To acknowledge and to take responsibility for your own actions.

2. Don't blame others for your own mistakes, problems, or issues when you know it is your fault and not anyone elses. If it is someone elses fault that you are in a situation or predicament then do the best you can to deal with it.

3. Some people say it means not to cry; that is incorrect. We all have feelings; to deny them is to lie to yourself and others, "MAN UP" and deal with it. If you don't you only cause yourself physical, mental, psychological, emotional, and spiritual damage; and you also affect those around you in a negative way as you take it out on them, instead of dealing with it properly. EX: Jesus was a Man among men; he didn't "cry" He "wept tears of blood." He went to the cross, He manned up for things that were not His own.
Even if you are not a Christian/Believer you can surely admit that Jesus was not a wimp, coward, or a liar - He said it, and did it.
1. He did the right thing, he went back and (man up) told his boss the truth and accepted the consequences instead of letting his co-worker take the fall for it.

2. She accepted (man up)responsibility for the accident and told her Mom that she is the one who broke the antique.

3. I felt so sorry for the sobbing man. His immediate family died in a tragic head-on car accident because someone else was drinking and driving. Overall he is dealing with it the best that he can - he is letting it all out (man up), mourning as he should. He sure does have the right to do so.

dropped like a lead balloon

1. "Dropped like a lead balloon" is a phrase, not a word, but it is none the less an old expression that means literally and/or figuratively that something will not fly. That it will drop like a rock, etc...
He told the boss his new idea for the ad campaign and it dropped like a lead balloon. There was no way that the boss would approve such a risky & shoddy scheme.

Chain Texter

1. A "Chain Texter" is a person who can NOT stop texting. They text in the bathroom, the bedroom, the car while driving the wrong way down a One-way street, anywhere they have a phone signal they text text text.

2. It's basically the same thing as being a Chain Smoker; but they don't have patches for Chain Texters - that's what "Dead Zones" are, patches to a chain texter LOL! TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT (stretch and crack their fingers) TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT!

3. A Chain Texter goes NUTS when they cannot send or receive a/any text message(s).

4. Sometimes it's the iggit in front of you at a light who is more into the texting than s/he is into paying attention to driving and being safe; thus causing road rage with others (as if the Chain Texter is innocent). Causing vehicle accidents - trees do not text, they are ANTI-Chain Texters!
Chain texters cause our car insurance rates to go up, and laws to change b/c of their own stupidity that creates vehicle accidents, near calls, or near misses. Therefore we the NON-Chain texters have to pay more for our insurance rates b/c of the lamers thinking that there vehicle isn't a locomotive means, but that it is a Text-o-motive means to get from here to there.
1. Look around the next time you are out and about, see who is and is not texting.

2. You may know or BE a Chain Texter; but where is Chain Texters Anonymous? Is it really that important, seductive, or addictive? Come on, put the darn cell phone down for an hour; you will NOT die!
