Lady Chevalier's definitions
To have a turning radius slighty larger than that of a dime, but smaller than that of a nickel.
Not as impressive as being able to turn on a dime, but still, not bad.

Get the turn on a pennymug. Margo: A tisket, a tasket, I lost my yellow basket...
Alice: Did you have all your eggs in it?
Margo: Yes.
Alice: ...Damn.

Get the basketmug. Insult, originating from the anime Digimon. Each season of the show contained a stubborn or bullheaded "leader" character who wore goggles on top of his head. The word "gogglehead" came to epitomise the stereotypical blunt, stubborn, or self-centered characteristics of the show's main characters.
Despite the fact the Digimon show has been over and done with for some time, it still has a pretty hardcore fanbase, and the word is common on website and forums that still cater to Digimon fans, as well as other "kiddie anime" sites that host pages about Pokémon, YuGiOh, or other shows that shared a fanbase with Digimon.
Often used affectionately.

That newbie didn't even read the rules before she started posting. What a gogglehead.
Tai always was my favorite character. I miss that old gogglehead.

Get the kazaa litemug. As conducive to giggling as fresh, hot bread (with butter) is to eating. You just can't help it.
A feel-good moment or situation. The laughter equivalent of Campbell Soup's mmm mmm good.

Get the giggliciousmug. Apparently not prep, but more of a Prep Lite. (I'd never be able to tell the difference, but whatevs. :))
It's not as bad as everyone makes it out to be. Not exactly my style, but it's got some cute shirts, especially if you're into pastels and glittery cartoon turtles. I'm not, but there's no accounting for taste.

Girl wearing chalk yellow babydoll t-shirt with an abominably cute monkey holding glittery yellow bananas: Guess where I went shopping today?
Clueless guy: ...Hot Topic?

Get the Aéropostalemug. A wobbly (but unfallydowny) toy from back in the day. (Actually, it originated in the 70's, which is well before MY 'back in the day,' but I can pretend to be cool and know what I'm talking about.) (And anyway, Playskool still makes incarnarnations of the darn things.)
While I never had Hasbro's brand name Weebles, I did play with a DIY version my uncle made for me. It involved a purple plastic easter egg (you know, the kind you get three jelly beans in) with a penny taped inside the bottom half and a rather frightening face drawn on in Sharpie. Basically, like the actual Weeble, you could bat it around and it would always right itself. It wasn't that far off from the real thing, either.
Being a somewhat belligerent child, I took the slogan as a personal affront, and spent many hours (well, at least twenty minutes trying to devise ways to MAKE THE DARN THING STAY TIPPED OVER. Gluing it to the table might have worked, but I was caught before the elmer's had set. Would that I were still so carefree!
Admittedly not a hugely challenging idea for a toy, but hey.

Weebles wobble, but they don't fall down!
Distracted Father: *calling from the next room* Janie? Janie, did you take my superglue?
Slightly Creepy Child: *loudly and sweetly* No, Daddy!
Distracted Father: Huh. *goes to the basement to check his toolbox for the fourth time*
Slightly Creepy Child: *stashes tube of epoxy, glaring at newly-inverted Weeble the entire time* Take that, you demonic ovoid spawn of hell.
