Wal*Mart rejects

The dregs of society.

Wal*Mart is a universally loathed chainstore, commonly described as catering to white trash and being solely responsible for the collapse of western civilization. The implication is that only the lowest of the low shop or work there; thus, Wal*Mart rejects (those who cannot get a job there or shoppers who have been banned from the premises) must truly be among the worst examples of humanity.

The phrase is used both by people who shun Wal*Mart and those who shop there, as everyone can relate to it.
Some Wal*Mart reject tried to chat me up at the club last night. Can you say gross?

No wonder we can't hire anyone! The only people who'd work for this pay are Wal*Mart rejects!

barrel of laughs

An unfunny or annoying person.

The term was originally used to refer to a funny person or situation, but is used sarcastically so often that the original meaning is all but lost.

Similar to laugh riot.
Yeah, he's a regular barrel of laughs. Shoot me, please.

not quite the same

Completely different.

Often said with nostalgia.
You know, Star Wars is not quite the same without Muppet Yoda.

tinselling

Seeing stars.

To have slight vision problems after falling down or having been hit in the head. Represented in cartoons as stars or songbirds circling the victim's head.

From tinsel, the chinsy gold and silver strings used to decorate during the holidays—The sensation is rather like having threads of tinsel waved just outside your field of vision.
Max: Whoa, you wiped out on that jump. You okay?
PJ: *faintly* Yeah, gimme a sec. I'm tinselling right now...

The Holidays

A period of roughly six weeks, lasting from the end of November to some time in January. It includes a number of religious holidays, traditional celebrations, and family visits. It is generally accepted to be both the best part of the year (for people under the age of fifteen) and the worst part of the year (for people over the age of fifteen).

Includes: Thanksgiving, Hannukah, Advent, Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, the Winter Solstice, St. Nick's Day, Kwanzaa, Boxing Day, New Year's Eve, New Year's Day, Winter Break (for students), and a number of others.

Sometimes used (as "Happy Holidays") as a politically correct (race, creed, and nationality-neutral) phrase on cards and decorations.

Also known as "International Muzak Month" due to the unwavering propensity of shopping establishments to assault their customers' ears with instrumental version of "Do You Hear What I Hear," "Jingle Bell Rock," and "White Christmas" for the entire six-week period.
If I hear "The Little Drummer Boy" one more time, I swear I'm going to snap. I didn't mind this as a kid, but ever since I turned fifteen, boy! I hate the holidays.
