lavalanche

A major slide of hot molten rock down a sloped surface.
The clouds of ash and cinders from Mt. St. Helens were dangerous enough, but it was the lavalanche that really spelled disaster for nearby communities.

bare with me

What I'd honestly thought the hot-bodied gym-teacher had meant when she spoke to me while momentarily preoccupied with some paperwork prior to helping me with my workout; as you might imagine, I subsequently felt kinda stupid after seeing her shocked expression when she glanced back up from her desk --- still fully garbed in her own exercise-outfit --- and saw me standing there stark-naked in front of her.
Anytime a hot chick says, "bare with me", I prudently wait to see if she actually starts to disrobe herself before I drop my own trousers... she might have simply meant that she wanted me to be patient with her while she processed an unavoidable delay before joining and/or assisting me.

We are currently experiencing higher-than-normal call-volumes

Bu**s**t!! This is merely what you **always** say when someone calls your help-line! You're just too cheap to hire enough customer-service reps!
Unless there actually was a recent major event like a power-outage or security-breach, DON'T BELIEVE IT if a company's caller-greeting recording says that, "We are currently experiencing higher-than-normal call-volumes; you may stay on the line and wait for the next representative, or you can leave a call-back number for one of our reps to return your call during this same business day, or you might want to try your call again later"... again, DON'T BELIEVE IT --- in all likelihood, this is merely what they ALWAYS tell ALL of their customers who call, no matter what time-period it is ! And whatever you do, DON'T THINK THAT "LEAVING YOUR NUMBER" WILL CAUSE THE COMPANY TO CALL YOU BACK... I have waited ALL THE REST OF THE DAY for a call-back, and the company **never** got back to me! The best thing to do, therefore, is to simply "stay on the line" to "keep your slot in the cue", even if it means a long wait... better to eventually get through than never reach a live person at all.

genderally speaking

Under ordinary ordinary circumstances regarding masculine/feminine issues or topics.
Genderally speaking, women have always been discriminated against, even if social leaders deny it up and down and six ways from Sunday.

go all "family man" on me

Snortingly-sarcastic term for a shyster's/villain's huffily acting like he's a conscientious peaceable virtuous caring-about-fellow-humans person who shouldn't be suspected or criticized, when of course in reality he's just a self-centered a**h**e who's totally undeserving of any praise or respect.
A prime example of someone's deciding to use this shameless tactic would be in "The Untouchables" with Kevin Costner --- when Elliot Ness angrily confronts Al Capone on the stairway and accuses him of murdering people and otherwise being a horrid crook, Capone indignantly lashes out right back at Ness for his "talking that way in front of Capone's son"... Ness's feelings would therefore be something like, Capone decided to go all "family man" on me --- how infuriatingly disgusting!

words of whizdom

Enlightened remarks and advice regarding the subject of urination.
I occasionally have difficult/embarrassing issues when I need to pee really bad, and so I always appreciate it when fellow cool dudes give me their words of whizdom (for example, to carry a blue shop-towel in my pocket instead of a regular white paper towel, since these more-robust-fiber towels doesn't rapidly disintegrate if they get wet, and so said sturdy material can more-reliably "see me through" if I hafta wipe myself when I'm not near a restroom) that can sometimes make said "calls on Line One" less traumatic or humiliating.

theresay

A statement that the listener actually experiences the "original" speaker's having uttered, rather than its having been a statement that someone else is claiming to have heard the speaker verbalize.
The furry grouch in "Green Eggs and Ham" initially claims that he doesn't like the grass-colored culinary treats that Sam is proffering, and also implies that his revulsion is neither "heresay nor theresay", since he does not wish to have the platter of food placed in either of those two suggested locales.
