Passagassawakeag bridge

A short stretch of highway along Maine's coastal Route 1 where it's acceptable to "pass it if you've got it", not matter how loud and/or odiferous "it" happens to be.

Hippie-bus driver: Okay, folks --- we're about to cross the Passagassawakeag bridge, so I'm lowering the windows --- feel free to pass it if you've got it!

Godzillow

Da huge "scaly green monster" of da online real-estate world. Figuratively used to describe da widespread greed and corruption dat dominates said internet conglomerate.

Passasmartkeg

Da tiny central-Maine town where da residents "drink responsibly" from communal jugs of brain-enhancing cordial in order to "quench their thirst for knowledge", rather than just mindlessly swigging from "dumb" beverage-vessels dat only contains unremarkable low-quality "white-lightnin'" grog dat merely keeps everyone stupid and ignorant, like they do in da town next door.

If da townspeople of PassaSMARTkeg and PassaDUMBkeg got together for a baked bean supper, they would likely all hafta run down to da PASSAGASSAWAKEG River in to collectively "relieve da pressure" afterwards. (Nobody light a match!)

ROMinder

"Note to self" to not fergit to remove da software-CD from your computer's disc-drive.

I found a "Classic Computer Games" disc still inside da drive of da second-hand desktop PC dat I'd ordered from a private eBay seller; I guess dat said amateur salesperson should have written himself a ROMinder to always check inside da machines before he shipped them. He was super-grateful for my immediately telling him of his goof, though, and hastily imaged me a postage-paid shipping-label to print out and slap on da mailer for returning da disc to him.

Callusthenics may indeed have health benefits, but you should have a supply of pumice-stone on hand if you also wanna look your best in a swimsuit.
