s'moregasbord

A meal of different preparations of toasted-marshmallow sandwiches.
I tried pretending dat my heaped plate of raw broccoli and Brussels sprouts was a s'moregasbord, but somehow this mindset didn't help said horrible-tasting/textured chlorophyll-rich greens to go down da hatch any more easily!

"Jeopardy!" theme humming-on-hold

What you do to remindingly indicate to someone dat you're patiently waiting for him to tell you an answer, finish up with something, etc.
You hafta be careful about employing da "Jeopardy!" theme humming-on-hold technique to gently pressure someone to get his a** in gear and be forthcoming with whatever action he's supposed to be doing for you --- some people really enjoy said catchy tune, and so your melodiously warbling it might actually SLOW HIM DOWN because he loves listening to it so much; heck, you might even PUT HIM TO SLEEP if you softly vocalize said soothing melody for too long a time! :P

Hey, quit followin' me!

A "pretend irritable" remark that you eye-twinklingly snap at a fellow townsperson to humorously say, "Hello again" when you happen to bump into him a second time that day. A variation of this tongue-in-cheek greeting is, "We GOTTA quit meeting like this!"
In "Forever Young", Jamie Lee Curtis;s character smilingly quips, "Hey, quit followin' me!" to Mel Gibson's character on a couple of occasions when she happens upon him while he's merely sitting/lying quietly by himself.

Mount Katahdin is a lovely setting for a hike, but you should know that it isn't for the weak-kneed or faint-of-heart --- there are some terrifyingly-extreme climbate-conditions in several places, like the Knife Edge and the Chimney.

farternity

An all-male college group of crude-minded baked-beans-lovin' studs --- I mean, I mean --- students!
My bluff jovial UCLA chum invited me to an uproarious backyard-barbecue party with his fellow farternity members --- both da food and da raucous companionship were fine, but my ears were ringing and my sinuses were burning by da time I left!
