QuacksO's definitions
Besides the "classic" musical-notes connotation, this phrase can also refer to either:
(1) Something you definitely don't wanna have in your car if you get pulled over. About the only exception, of course, would be if you're merely transporting empty gin-bottles to the redemption center; if this is the case, however, you will want to thoroughly drain and then neatly bag up said containers, and also either snugly cross-tie the bags' mouths or seal them with string or wire-twists so that (A) not much alcohol-fumes will escape to invalidly create a telltale fermented-beverage smell at your driver's door window, and (B) the officer can see that you weren't sipping from any of the containers yourself.
(2) The "wide latitude of interpretation" that the "right to remain silent" amendment is often subject to.

"I am hauling empty gin-bottles to the redemption center" is hardly an incriminating statement under most circumstances, so there should be no problem with any "open fifths", since conceivably you would have no need to remain silent if a policeman asks what's with all the bags of liquor-bottles in your back seat or trunk.

Get the open fifthmug. One of life’s first-and-foremost “double-edged swords” --- something that can “cut both ways” as far as definition and desirability is concerned. While it can refer to a welcomed stack of purchase-agreements that will bring wealth and prosperity to its recipient, it can also mean stern/irritable directives to do/not do something that its recipient hates/wants to do.
Travelling company salesman: Boy, did I get two big orders today!
Boss: Great! What were they?
Salesman: Well, the first one was, “keep out” and the second one was, “stay out”.

Get the ordersmug. "Treasure chest" and "booty", as in, the sumptuous T&A "riches" which any "curvaceously attractive" lady possesses, and which horny studs view as being infinitely more desirable/precious to them than any buccaneer's ill-gotten stash of gold or jewels. Plus a girl's "bodily valuables" can never be "spent 'n' squandered" the way monetary riches can; the blinky-eyed cutie's delectable resources remain present and undepleted no matter how much they are "savored and enjoyed". And of course, in the case of the ample "treasures" on a buxom gal's "treasure chest", the overall "volume" of her delightful "treasures" actually **increases** with "regular use", since a girl's boobs grow bigger and fuller the more they're played with, especially if said "recreation" occurs while the chick is still in her more "youthful years", such as between her late teens to early thirties.
Bored history-class student: I'm not much into reading about piracy on the high seas, but I do love occasionally quoting their colorful language, especially when lightheartedly conversing with cute girls whom I befriend --- they always have the biggest giggle-fits when I joke around with them using protoplasm pirate-phrases.

Get the protoplasm pirate-phrasesmug. What an online girlfriend asks you for --- supposedly in order for her to prepare herself for establishing a romantic relationship with you, but actually has no intention of actually meeting you or otherwise favoring you in any way whatsoever --- and what you will really feel "steamed" about if you actually do buy the card for her, since you would likely just be wasting your money and getting absolutely nothing in return.
A hot online chick promised me a "steamy" relationship if I bought her a steam card, but I figger she was merely "blowing off steam" --- i.e., making a huge show of affection without actually meaning it or having any genuine intention of linking up with me.

Get the steam cardmug. Refers to a break you take from your normal routine, and go lobstering with one of your coastal fishing-buddies.
Taking a hauliday may not be the most relaxing or effortless way to unwind, but at least you do get to go out on the ocean and “get away from it all” for a while.

Get the Oughttowamug. Describes da virtually-free-of-charge status of a dog's companionship, protection, etc.; i.e., da only thing dat he asks in return is a meaty bovine femur or tibia each day for him to chew on.
In da animation-comedy "Achmed Saves America", da Wilson family's dog Bill gives freely of his affection; Achmed discovers dat said eager-to-please pooch rushes to his side "pro-boneo", as well --- i.e., Achmed merely has to temporarily remove one of his skeletal members and offer it to Bill, and said cluelessly-amiable pooch will always immediately come running.
